Review summary

The Carnival Sunshine is a great ship. The 8 day southern Caribean itinerary is the best we have been on yet. Aruba, Curaçao, and Grand Turk are all great ports. Lots to see and do. Very pretty islands. Can't think of a bad moment during the cruise. Highly recommended.

Big cabin. Cost a little more but definitely worth it. 320 square feet compared with 185 square feet. Great view, and no noise. Right on the lido deck near all the activities.

Ship tip

Guys burgers are the best.

No beach at curaçao. But great little town to shop and visit. Aruba is all beach. Find a good resort, pay a fee and enjoy the drinks and beach.

We are booked for March 5, 2016- we have been on the Sunshine before and love it but never been to Aruba, or Curaçao. Can you tell me if there are things to do by the port ? And is it fairly easy to get to a beach on these islands? Thanks
