Review summary

After the first day we had a wonderful cruise. I definitely would sail with Carnival again.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
It was one of the worst embarkations we have had. There were no seats left in the terminal, just wall to wall people. After an hour I was able to snag 2 seats for my husband and myself. It was another hour before we boarded, but thank God we at least had a seat or I would have never been able to make the walk to get onboard.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We were very happy with the food in the MDR and the Steakhouse was "WoW".

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
There was great music on the ship, we played trivia, the comedians were funny and the Halloween Party was a blast.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
I didn't really care for the shows this cruise. There was an 8 piece band that had the best musicians and singers in the Gondola Lounge, so be sure to check them out.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
We thought the service was very good.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was very nice. We enjoyed the Italian theme.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We had plenty of room in our cabin and it was quite comfortable.

Ship tip

The elevators on embarkation and debarkation day are horrendous, so be patient. We did a lot of walking up and down stairs on those days.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
We scheduled the latest departure thinking we could get breakfast. We waited for about 1/2 an hour for an elevator but it would not even take our request. We even tried on 3 different floors. So, no breakfast and it was hard to find a seat to wait for our time to be called.

Thanks for the review. What time did you arrive at the port for embarkation and what time was your scheduled arrival time. Why could you not eat breakfast on debark day? Was it not being served or you just got there too late?
