Had the best time! I recommend the Sunshine, she is my favorite, I am very sad to see her leaving Charleston the end of the year! Norfolk, you are super lucky to get her!
Carnival Sunshine Cruise Review to Caribbean - Bahamas
The Sunshine is a really great ship. My family and I have had a lot of fun on this ship. It is my favorite and I will be sad to see her leave Charleston.
Embarkation
3 out of 5
The only down side to this ship in my opinion. Charleston cruise terminal is a bit convoluted. It was easy peasy when the Fantasy was ported there because she was a smaller ship and it could handle the amount of passengers much more simply. Now with the bigger ship AND knowing that they are leaving anyway they put a system in place of shuttle busses and 3 buildings. It works but its a process.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Like any menu, some will like some things and some will like others. We had very little complaints about the food, there really is something for everyone. I am a pescatarian and did not go hungry.

Ship Quality
5 out of 5
I love the size and layout it is my favorite ship. You CAN see the age on some parts of the ship (some rust spots on balconies and railings in particular) but it is inevitable and unless you are scrutinizing the ship it is very easy to pay it no attention.
