Review summary
The cruise Rolando and Susansath were amazing during diner and whenever we saw them around. Always smiling and friendly. Got w/e we needed when asked. We even mixed their names up accidentally and still got nothing but a smile and a yes back. The ship needs to include chips with meals such as sandwiches or just as a snack. David on our excursion was nothing short of entertaining, this is his calling. He made the excursion even better and I wish to request him every time. The ppl in Amber Cove were very nice. Grand Turk was great however the people in the “ police station “ wasn’t. Wanted to charge $2 for a passport stamp and was rude. Over all it was a great cruise. The food was good! You just have to know where to go and what to get. Pick the right time to do the right activities. Guys burger places never fails. Fast and delicious. Wish carnival offered adult only cruises. Also some of the other reviews were accurate the ship does smell like sewer, however my section didn’t smell thankfully. I was on floor 6 and idk I would say in the middle. 6123. So if I remember correctly it was the back of the cruise. Another section smelt really good. Mine was just regular and I was fine with that. They did dinner different and it’s call “ anytime you check in” which is nice however going on a separate floor to check in then another floor to eat was a bit much def for a handicap person. The pictures are over priced but lovely. Despite what online says the Sunshine does not have the skyride on the ship. Also at the Grand Turk port I didn’t see any unlimited zip line as the other reviews said. I asked about it and the locals stated we needed to take a taxi to that as it was on the other side. But the beach, pools, and swim up bar was nice. They had a dj and dance contest !Embarkation
