Review summary

We had a great time. Our room host and head waiter and his staff was great. It’s nice they all learn and remember your names and what you drink and like to eat etc.

Embarkation

2 out of 5

Sad cause we were still doing the muster station and we didn’t get to see the send off.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Pretty good. Wish at the buffet that they were all open at night not just one thing. Desserts were pretty dry. Food was much better 10 years ago. Drinks - cheers was a joke. I watched some bar tenders make drinks with no alcohol. I drank a lot of mixed drinks and it was mainly sugar.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Everyone was super friendly and polite. Just wish there was more people to order drinks from - had to go to the bar a lot to get a drink. This is not the employees part though - Carnival needs to up there staff in this part.
