Although Mardi Gras is a beautiful ship, I think I prefer a little smaller ship. But I would not turn down a trip.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
We had faster to the fun so we pretty much just walked right into the ship.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
I love the dining room and the service just not a lot of the selections. If you don't want what they're having in the dining room don't go to lido buffet because they have the same stuff there. But everything I had was good. The steakhouse was great and the Japanese steakhouse was a well. I had the bottomless bubbles and I did like the fact that there are fountains she you scan you card and serve yourself. A lot quicker than ordering from the bars.

Service and Staff
5 out of 5
My service experience was wonderful.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Ship was clean but the thing is just so large. Be prepared to walk long distances and wait forever on elevators. Most of the common areas were centrally located but our cabin was midship and not necessarily convenient.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
All the amenities are comfortable but the canons on this ship are a lot more narrow than the previous ones. The bathroom was super small. It attendant was super ninja. In and out super fast and helpful if we needed anything.
Ship tip
Be prepared to walk. A lot. Get to the shows at least half hour early or you won't find a seat. There are lots of good options for food.
