Review summary

I live in NY so it was easy to get to and from the cruise. Great casual food and fun vibe. Met a lot of great people.

Embarkation

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Main dining was below average except for one night they had prime rib and that was good. Service was poor most of the time. Everyone seemed miserable. The brunch was very good, though service was still mediocre at best. Carnival has the best casual food hands downs. From Guys Burgers to the Pizza or the deli all had tasty options. And I loved the coffee shop. Shake was delicious and so were the cookies. The buffet is atrocious. Minimal options and just bland. At breakfast they rationed bacon. Spend all that money and can’t even get bacon. It was every other day. Pathetic!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

They have the most diverse array of music and games and stuff for people to do than any other cruise line. There is something for everyone

For the most part everyone seems miserable and overworked. Sad really.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Ship design is kinda weird. But it was very clean and my stateroom attendant keep our room immaculate

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

It was an accessible room. So extra big bathroom and room. Only thing there was no couch. Also, the bed was as hard as a brick. I mean rock hard.

I live here so nothing new for me. But sailing out under the bridge and seeing the Statue of Liberty was great

King's Wharf, Bermuda

4 out of 5

The beaches are stunningly beautiful but the cab and bus service is atrocious. They herd you like cattle and no care for your comfort just pile everyone on and no care for comfort at all. Also, everything is overpriced but the beaches are gorgeous especially when they are not crowded
