Review summary

Overall a very fun cruise and I would definitely sail with carnival again

Embarkation

5 out of 5
This was by far the quickest! We got there and got through with zero lines! Super easy.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The food was delicious at all restaurants. I will complain that the buffet had extremely limited options. I will say the pizza was great but there was always a long line. I’m very annoyed about the cans they use for all the soda. Anyone else agree?

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Was good overall. I would say that this ship lacks hot tubs. There is only 2 public hot tubs and they were always filled.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Great shows and so many wonderful singers. Elizabeth from piano bar was awesome! I was a little annoyed with the violinists because they played the same songs every night

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
My kids had some great fun and met so many amazing kids

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Service was great. Wasana from the buffet was great. The cruise directed shwarts was great! The bar staff was very quiet.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Clean ship, although I would say that the hallways were thin and the ship was very confusing at times.

Cabin / Stateroom

Liked your review. Elizabeth was fun, and yes on the straws. The edible sugar straws were interesting! Hated the long lines for breakfast at 1230 this afternoon! Glad they finally opened up some lunch options, did you see the line for Guys?
