Review summary

This was my fifth cruise and my wife's first. We both enjoyed it, except the desserts were not very good. Most of the food was good for cruise food, but nothing gourmet or out of this world. Even though it was Carnival during spring break time, there were a lot of families and not a lot of partyers, which I was glad about.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Food was overall good for cruise food. Don't expect anything gourmet or groundbreaking. The main area for improvement are the desserts. For some reason, all of them were very poor quality except for creme brulee.

The nightly shows were mediocre, but the staff was very entertaining and kept the small activities fun.
