Review summary

I really enjoyed this cruise. Very relaxed, I read 10 books! There was lots to do if that is what you wanted to do. Disappointed that all the Diamond/Platinum members received was a lanyard! This was Carnivals longest cruise and the first to Singapore, we thought something to commemorate this would have been special. But I loved the cruise.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Great service from all staff. They work hard. At the same time, on the deck above the pool you couldn’t find anyone to order drinks. Had to go downstairs to get something.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Older ship, but things were good. The ship was very cold. Many people were coughing and sneezing by end of cruise. Dining room very cold. They finally turned air conditioning down just before end of cruise. Everyone was sick by then. They kept telling us to sanitize hands, bad bug going around!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Can’t remember room! It was good though. Second floor oceanview.

We lived in Guam 3 years. Lots of history and culture if you have researched. So bad you missed it.
