Review summary

so many good things but also a few aggravating things, had fun despite the aggravating things ie: design of the closet, lack of storage, some dishes were tasteless, buffet management at breakfast. the shows were fantastic, the ship is beautiful and everything was very clean, ports were great and of course the beautiful Caribbean blue water was beyond description

Food and Dining

dining room: ok food, good service. specialty rest: great food and service. buffet: breakfast was overcrowded and they would shut down half of it when the crowd was at it's peak. lunch was better. Hamburgers have greatly improved from last yr cruise

very good, a few grumpy staff in customer service but Andrea stood above and beyond in attitude and assistance

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
crummy closet and storage space. a lot of wasted space that Carnival would have had drawers or shelves in

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
size was pretty good, not enough storage areas, could not get in drawers, shelves when someone accessing closet. had to sit on floor to reach shoes...ridiculous!

Ship tip

do not expect much storage, and because it is an Italian ship do not expect fantastic pasta dishes
