Review summary

Carnival Sunshine is a older ship but still a lot of fun. This ship has a lot of complimentary food options!!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
This port is different. You have to park then take buses to the terminal. Our platinum status made things go quickly when we got to the terminal. We had no lines with a later check in.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food was good as usual!! I only wish they would change the menu up in the dining room for seaday brunch and in the dining room for dinner. After so many carnival cruises year after year some new food options would be wonderful!!

Onboard Activities

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The service staff is so wonderful!! They are always working so hard with a smile on their face to make sure we all have a great vacation!!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
All of the Carnival ships are kept very clean. The layout on this ship is very confusing but I would definitely go on it again!!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The rooms are showing their age but the beds are very comfortable. Our room steward ILDE was wonderful!! The pillows were pretty fat so I am glad I brought my nice flat one with me to keep my neck from hurting the whole trip!!

Ship tip

There are only two elevators in the front of the ship that get you to decks 11,12 and 14 serenity area. We climbed a lot of steps before we even knew they existed!!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
This was the fastest disembarkation we ever had!! With our platinum status we were able to carry off our bags at 6:45 and we were in our car by 7am.
