Review summary
Wonderful cruise. Hadn't been on one for several years. Things have changed a bit, but we had a great time. I was a little leary because it is an older ship and some reviews were negative. I feel those people who leave those reviews expect the moon. We had a very nice relaxing time, no need to worry about being taken care of and catered too. Ship was super clean and friendly. Only experience one night of several cabins across the hall have a party at 3:00 am and slamming doors. I got up to ask them to be quite. We didn't turn them in but i have a feeling someone down our hall did as we didn't hear a peep out of the the rest of the week. So Carnival must have taken care of the problem promptly!Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Limelight Lounge
This was just fine. One think i would recommend is right as you walk in order your drink. I think they had way too many people and not enough drink waiters. We didn't even get to order drinks for two of the nights we went. (But it saved us money)
Sunshine Restaurant
ALWAYS A GREAT TIME HERE....ALL WAITERS/WAITRESS WERE SPOT ON... NEVER HAD TO ASK FOR ANYTHING....THEY WERE ON TOP OF IT!
Guy's Pig & Anchor Bar-B-Que
This was very good flavored. Service was quick and friendly. Liked that it was so close to the pool area, so didn't have to go far to eat.
BlueIguana Cantina
This was very quick and great service. Just didn't care for the meat (not a big meat eater though)...Great toppings bar!
Pizzeria del Capitano
Pizza toppings were very sparse, even the cheese. Had to wait in line quite awhile during a busy time, had zero pizzas out.
Guy's Burger Joint
Super, Super good! We ate there several times during the week. Probably best place on ship to eat that is fast.
Onboard Activities
Cloud 9 Spa
We took tour...was very impressed. We had priced it before the cruise and was prepared to book a couples massage, but when we got on board, price and really, really gone up. I mentioned the price i saw on line...she told us that we had to prebook at that price. I didn't see this anywhere stated online. The last sea day, they called our room to say we "won" a $50 gift certificate....we passed.

Ship tip
Dont worry about the small stuff....you will enjoy your time on the ship, even though it is one of the older ships. We had no problems except for the people across the hall from us, who thought you could use the hall for a pizza party at 3:00 am....We quickly nipped that in the bud.
