Review summary
Great time. Good food. Enjoyed Havana area, never too busy here, so it's where I stayed. Did formal night, enjoyed cocktails after and walked on the decks. Enjoyed the 80s party-always amazing. Great food options! Loved trying as many free food options as we could! Would sail on MG again.Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Piazza Piani
Probably our fave on the ship and most visited staying in a Havana room.
Chibang!
Good food! Ate here twice on the cruise, fave of the girls.
Bar della Rosa
Loved stopping here for cocktails!
Big Chicken by Shaq
Great chicken sandwich. Ate here for lunch only.
Rudi's Seagrill
Delicious food and great service.
Cucina del Capitano
When we cruised they were rotating dining room options and this was complimentary. It was terrible, and we always enjoy the Italian restaurant on other Carnival ships. Hope they worked it out since then.
Havana Bar
Stayed in Havana room, always stopped here for drinks. A bit slow on the inside but always Great drinks.
Onboard Activities
Havana Pool
Stayed here all of my cruise pretty much. The girls ventured out more. Never busy, pool is small compared to other Havana areas. Still worth it in my opinion.

Ship tip
Plenty of dining options! Even if you don't pay extra for specialty. Probably the best included dining of any ship in Carnivals fleet. Lobster night in MDR, Shaqs chicken, panini place, pizza, Blue Iguana, and street eats. Didn't even touch a buffet.
