Review summary

Cruise was relaxing. Staff were great. Ports were nice. Weather was nice.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Construction at the port caused a lot of issues (not Carnival's fault). Plenty of parking availability at the port.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Food was okay in buffet and MDR. The steakhouse was great and so was JiJi's

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Lots of activities to do.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Shows and entertainment was okay. Piano bar was okay. Was disappointed in the performer in that the crowd collected $$ for him to sing a certain song & didn't. Also, don't sing a song by the late Jimmy Buffet in a Kermit the frog voice...very disrespectful

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Was okay. Just wish people would follow crew's directions. Not sure how you can make disembarkation any more efficient when people don't follow.
