Review summary

Overall, it was great and we had a good time. There are definitely some areas that don’t live up to Royal Caribbean but also some that are better. All in all, I would sail with carnival again and we had fun

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Personally, the food was good but the wait staff and food was a bit better on Royal carribean. Drink package and quality was great. Did not try any specialty restaurants

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Pools were small and cramped. There are tons of karaoke staples missing from the line up. Overall it was fun

5 out of 5

Musicians and DJs were great; did not see any stage shows

Children's Programs

Did not have kids

Service and Staff

1 out of 5

Irish from housekeeping was PHENOMENAL and really went above and beyond. Some of the dining staff were not very friendly but also not rude so no real complaint as some wait staff were phenomenal!

Ship Quality

1 out of 5

Layout was very confusing getting from AFT to FWD on the same floor

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

The twin beds together to make a king kept separating and made it very uncomfortable

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

1 out of 5

LOVED the snorkel excursion. Food was good here as well. Shout out to Shannon on the excursion and the rest of the crew for being amazing

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

2 out of 5

The excursion was great with the stingrays but there’s not much to do on the island and it’s silly the drink package does not work here

Your comments don't match up with the stars you gave. If we were to go by stars, you hated just about everything, but your comments say you liked it and would go again??? You praised your excursion in the Bahamas but gave it 1 star???
