Review summary

This was our 1st Cruise.  Chose a Cruise to get away and relax.  No phones or internet.  Paid extra for a Balcony room to relax.  Neighbors to the right side - LOUD LOUD till 3 am - inside their room and on Balcony!  Neighbors on the other side - little kids.  2 doors down (we were down wind from) smoked on their Balcony and the smoke smell was horrible.

I had heard that Carnival is more of a "Party" cruise line but did not understand the full extent.  Geez.

Anyway - I like the idea of a Cruise.  Now if they offered a Non Kid Floor - Non Drunk Loud Ladies Floor - I might go back on one.

Nice Size. Neighbors were not nice.

Ship tip

For sure a Party theme. Too many Adults that had too many Adult beverages. Not a place to relax.
