Carnival Sunshine

Sail date: November 23, 2018

Ship: Carnival Sunshine

Review summary

Loved this ship. It’s different than any of the others as far as lay out goes. But I like the decor and it was nice and clean. The staff was amazing as always. The cruise director Mikey was by far the best CD I’ve ever had. Only issue is you have to walk thru the Smoky casino on deck 5 to get to the back of the ship which is where the Ocean Plaza stage is. Also, this ship does seem to rock a lot more then the average. It could be because we had to cruise at higher speeds to get all the way to Aruba in time. All in all I really enjoyed this ship and would cruise on it again.

I can't wait to try her. But I do wonder about her rocking. A lot of people have commented on it.😵

I agree about the casino. It was filled with smoke even during port time from people smoking in the casino bar. I wonder if the Carnival management knows about this problem because so many complain about the casino.

A few knots of extra speed would not cause the ship to rock. You could have gone to decks 6,7,8 or 9 in order to not go through the casino and then an elevator down.
