Review summary
Our 1st cruise but others in our group had gone many times. Had a great time. Meet great people! I loved the fact that the crew was from all over the world! Our pool waiter knew our names, who was married to who, our sign and sail numbers all by the 2 day! Sree became our friend and we now have his contact information and can’t wait to see him again!Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Main Lounge Bar
Nice place to meet up with your group before doing things at night. Mikey the cruise director always had things going here. He’s a hoot!!
Skybox Sports Bar
The guys HAD to watch the football game so they went here. It was great with all the TVs and the bartender was awesome
Piano Bar 88
Nice place for some calmer entertainment. Mellow and laidback.
Lido Marketplace
Nice place to people watch. Plenty of food and chair to lounge in
Sunrise Dining Room
Beautiful place. Wait staff was great. But one night they had just put in a new computer system and it was a little confusing for everyone.
RedFrog Pub
Best drinks ever!!
Guy's Burger Joint
Good and fast burgers!
Limelight Lounge
Entertainment was great!
Onboard Activities
Fun Hub
We had 12 people in our group and the app never worked for many of us. It would have been nice with that many in our group. I got mine refunded for the chat part because it didn’t work. It was very easy and deck just gave us the credit.
Sunshine Casino
Needs more smoke fans!!! Just walking through could choke a horse.
Serenity
This was our place! Many people come up early in the morning and claim their spots. But they don’t come back for hours on end. Signs say no saving and after 40 mins you loose your spot... We went up there every day and had a wonderful time every day!
Hot Tubs
The ones on the main deck were usually FILLED with kids so we went up top to the adult only section. But these were smaller hot tubs so several times we had to wait.
Serenity Pool
Perfect! Loved the 2 levels so you could just sit/lay on the edge of the deeper pool!
Guest Services and Excursions Desk
Very helpful! Had questions 3 times and each time they where fast and knowledgeable
Entertainment
Liquid Lounge
Scavenger hunt was awesome
Carnival Seaside Theater
View is great no matter where you sit!

Ship tip
Bring patches for seasickness just Incase. Not available on the ship. We didn’t need them but someone in our group did and he was sick for 3 days till we hit a port that had them.
