Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

The room was a nice size and balcony was great but getting a suite on carnival is not like a suite on royal or Norwegian the only benefit is getting on ship early

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

Fantastic but we had a dead, I think the ship could have had a moment of silence for the other family members, no other information would be needed. They gave me a very cold feeling.
