Review summary

Not so happy with this as my first cruise. I felt nickeled and dimed.

I think it’s ridiculous that Carnival charges to ride the roller coaster. I brought my 14month child on the cruise. My child could only go to the Dr. Seuss room. The pool rules were absurd even with a swim diaper my child could not get in the pool unless the child is potty trained. No child care services either because my child was not vaccination (which there is currently no vaccination given to children under 5). Needless to say I would have never paid for my 14month child to go on this Cruise knowing of this information. It was a waste of money and my vacation.

My 14month did not have any access to any activities except the Dr. Seuss room. Could not even get in the swimming pools. I’m highly disappointed
