Review summary

The food, service and menu selection at the Carmen were fantastic. I enjoyed the waiters (say hi to Gilbert and Wesley!) who were so much fun to interact with. The children's program was also fantastic and gave my wife the break that she really needed. The ship was clean and although older had all the amenities.
