We love crusing with Carnival, but will probably not book this particular ship again. We did enjoy ourselves immensely; however, we are going to try other ships in the fleet. We have booked a Norwegian cruise for next year, just to see what another line offers.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
We were able to board quickly and easily; it was a very smooth process for us!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
The specialty restaurant that we went to on the last night, Cocina de Capitano, was exceptional. We also enjoyed the buffets. The MDR was a hit most nights; however, the Elegant Night meal was not impressive. Our lobster was bland and the shrimp was very undercooked.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
I really enjoyed the slide!
Entertainment
5 out of 5
We saw one stage show and one comedian while onboard. Both performances were wonderful. We also enjoyed the DJs and the atrium entertainment.
Children's Programs
No children with us on the cruise.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
For the most part, we received outstanding service onboard. Our room steward, Katut, was wonderful; however, there was one waiter and one person working in Cherry on Top that were just flat out rude.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
The ship's layout was very confusing and did not make sense. Everything else was fine, though, as far as cleanliness and maintenance.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The comfort, size, and cleanliness was perfect; however, we were told that there would be a jet-streaming tub in our bathroom and there wasn't one. No big deal, but I don't think it should've been in the room description.
Ship tip
Go to Alchemy Bar and have Sanya and Yuliya make your drinks---the Cucumber Sunrise is outstanding and their service is incomparable!
We did not do an excursion, we simply walked around and went to the beach; this was our 1st time in Nassau. It was very dirty, there were locals approaching us from all angles wanting us to buy marijuana, and most everyone was very rude.
We did not do an excursion. We absolutley LOVE this island! This is our 2nd time here and we just enjoy lying on the beach, floating in the crystal clear water, walking on the beautiful, white sand, and indulging in the delicious island BBQ.
Glad to hear you mostly had a great time. I actually loved the Sunrise. We had a great time. The lobster was so good I had two plates. The only thing I could say negative is the smoking in the casino. Besides that my family had a great time. Hope you enjoy your next cruise. I will try Royal Caribbean next year.
