Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Guest Services Supervisor, Dilma Cano was very helpful and she made my family and I feel like we were human beings. Anastasia from Guest Services was outstanding as well. Our room steward made sure that our room was clean every evening. The bartenders, Micheal Mayuno, and Melissa Mendoza, at the Center Stage was very nice and easy to get alone with. They called me by name each and every time that I went to the bar. The coffee man, Mr Moca was his name and coffee was his game. He has a great sense of humor. He really make your morning go by fast. Kim the Rated R Comedy Host was very funny and very nice. She make you feel right at home.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
It is a very beautiful ship. They made the rooms smaller to make other areas larger. We stayed in a Balcony adjoin rooms with our two daughters. All the common areas was well maintained throughout the cruise.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
For my wife and I the room was ok, comfortable. The bathroom is small. The shower is very uncomfortable for a big person. The rooms were very clean and our room steward kept our room clean in the eveing.

Ship tip

Wear your mask and keep your distance. Carnival is not enforcing the wearing of masks like they should be. My family and worn our mask all the time, but some how my wife and I got COVID. We got tested as soon as we got back to SC and it came back postive.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

Because of the weather we didn't stop.
