Review summary

The only problem I had is that I am a night owl and the only option was pizza that late or room service and I didn't want to bother those people just for a sandwich or something small. Otherwise, you couldn't ask for a better vacation value for the family with everything included and plenty of activities. Our head waiter Rosanna was absolutely one of the most favorite persons I have encountered in the 45 years I have been alive.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
More choices later in the evening is the only improvement I could think of

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Sports deck was too busy, would be nice to have more choices but the ship is only so big

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Good mix of shows

Children's Programs

3 out of 5
Camp Carnival is good, could split up a little more so 11 year Olds aren't with 2 year olds

Service and Staff

Rosanna rocks

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
A little older, could use a little updating

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
The towel animals are always a plus, they clean the room 2 or 3 times daily so the service is fantastic.

Ship tip

The lounge chairs on the outside decks on level 3 are generally fairly empty so that is a nice spot for a quiet breezy nap with the sounds of the ocean.

You don't bother anybody ordering room service late at night- that's their shift to work. It's not that they've been up all day and now sadly have to work at night... On a future cruise- order room service!;) plus they get tipped! 😉

How was the food quality? We sail in a few months and can't wait! Been on several Carnival ships and generally found it pretty good. Pizza better on the Legend than the Sensation.
