Review summary

We love this ship. There are many great bars and venues to keep you entertained. Restaurants are very good

Embarkation

4 out of 5
This one was one of the easiest. People are finally following directions, and showing up at their respected times

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food in the MDR was very good and the different daily selections allowed us to explore some different types of foods

Bonsai Teppanyaki

5 out of 5

Great time. The cooks put on a great table side show. They are funny and very entertaining Don’t let this experience slip by

Fahrenheit 555 Steakhouse

5 out of 5

The steakhouse was great. We were able to get the same two waitress people (Denis & Semi) as on our cruise in March. These two are the best

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Plenty to do all around the ship if anyone says they are bored, then you are even trying to enjoy your time on board

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The shows are very good, but if you want a off the cuff fun, don’t miss the “Love & Marriage Show” it was one of the best and Cruise Director Mark Q only added to the fun and excitement

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Everyone of the Carnival staff always seemed to go out of their way to make sure everyone is having the best time possible

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
I might be one of the minority on this, but the Italian flair of this ship and the way it is laid out is great. If you are a shopper, then maybe the smaller individual on board stores might not be your cup of tea

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Love balcony rooms. Love to just sit out there late at night and watch the moon reflect off the ocean. Watching a lighting storm way off on the horizon was enjoyable

Ship tip

Explore the entire ship. There are great bars, venues, and attributes to be found throughout the entire ship

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Very pretty now. They have expanded and remodeled the port. Looks beautiful. BUT like most ports, once you. Are beyond the security gates you are at the mercy of the people trying to sell you anything, but they are polite and not obnoxious

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
Another great place. Relax and party at Margaritaville or just walk onto the beach and plop. Many good little places along the beach to rental chairs and umbrellas but you have to dicker with them or pay 💰💰

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

4 out of 5
Has all of your typical shops but not the annoying people hawking you. The pool snd lazy river is nice. Good atmosphere and great place to relax or party

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
Sit back and relax here. This was one of the reasons we booked this cruise. The waters are beautiful, and you can just sit down in the water snd make a day if it. Carnival foes have a BBQ set up which us ok. Just remember that your drink package dies not follow you onto 1/2 Moon Cay. Your sail and sign card will be charged for any drinks you buy

New York, New York

4 out of 5
It is New York what more can anyone say

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
This way stress free and easy as can be
