Overall, my cruise was great and I would do it again in a heartbeat. I like the pleasure of going to different ports. It feels like taking multiple vacations within the same timeframe.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
For the most part, embarkation was smooth and seamless.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The food and drinks were great. I wish Guy's Burger Joint was and the Deli section were opened longer than the pizza place. Otherwise, I enjoyed all of the food and drinks, although for the first hour or so onboard, the lemonade was only water.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
We did the sky ride and it was a lot of fun. We didn't get to enjoy the pools as they were small and filled with children all the time. We were able to utilize the whirlpools in the serenity and Havana areas which was nice. There were children in the other whirlpools as well. The deck parties were fun
Entertainment
4 out of 5
We went to a comedy show that was extremely short. The club was nice during the first hours but became a young spot by midnight.
Children's Programs
Did not have any children with me
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
For the most part the staff was great. I did find that our linen was not changed one day when it should have and on another day, we didn't receive any towels or washcloths (I'm sure it was just an oversight)
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The ship was well laid out and maintained. There wasn't a moment that I didn't feel that the staff was cleaning up.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
My cabin was cozy. Despite not having towels and washcloths one day then not have the bed linen changed on another day, the cabin was well maintained. The towel animals were cute.
Ship tip
I would suggest trying to get on the sky ride on the first sea day. If you wait for the last day, the lines will be very long. Some people didn't get to ride because it began to rain.
Absolutely loved it. We went to an adult resort and spa (booked on my own) for the day and had the best time. The food and drinks were amazing. The locals were not as aggressive as other places I've been.
This port is ok. It's pricey if you stay within the area. We found a place to snorkel for a fraction of the price everywhere else was charging and there was more to see.
This port was great and we had a wonderful time. I was a little disappointed that my favorite restaurant has Americanized their menu so the feeling of Mexican authenticity was lost.
We love Carnival! Will you post a pic of one/some of the Fun Times daily schedules? I believe they've altered the timing of some things so just trying to know before we go. Thank you!
