Overall a very good experience. The ports were very good, staff great. But need more food options and less salty food.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
Dining at the Reflection was great, but buffet service was not good. Choices were very limited, especially for someone who does not eat pork or shrimps. Most dishes were also salty. I suggest you give more options such as vegetarian rice and rice mixed with shrimp, bacon or whatever. Make available bacon and Turkey bacon, but give us a choice please. Sometimes too, if you are late, the buffet is close. You have to eat burger which seem to be most available. The burger was great, which is a good thing. There should always be a section open while transitioning from one meal to another for those who eat later than within the normal times.

Our steward Made was very, very good. He was very pleasant and curtious and made sure everything was clean and replaced.

Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Size and cleanliness was good, but for comfort a coffee maker and an ice container in the cabin would make our stay more comfortable
Ship tip
Try to eat more at the specialty restaurants. If you have to do buffet, make sure you're on time or else you will see the shutters down and a closed sign. Make sure to use the Carnival hub app to keep up to date with all that's going on.
I agree the buffets are not that good. I think on my last cruise I didn’t eat there once. Luckily, there are other choices that were pretty good! I do wish they’d improve the food to be honest.
