Review summary

Was great cruise, been to these ports before but always find something new to discover. The Mardi Gras is big beautiful ship, very different from other carnival ships. But I love exploring new things.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was a square interior cabin, love it. Bathrooms are smaller on the Mardi Gras, but love the glass shower door.

Ship tip

Don't stress out trying to do and eat every where. Make a list of the most important things and get them done 1st. Then you explore at your leisure.

Thanks for sharing. Agree that it is a beautiful ship. We found that we ate dinner in the other restaurants also. Did the same at lunch. Never ate at the lido buffet for lunch.
