Overall a little slow for us. This is the 3rd HA cruise we've done and while some ports are nice, there isn't much to do onboard. The most exciting things this time were the Orange Party and the bar crawl.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Excellent. We arrived at our scheduled time of 12pm and breezed right through. Rooms were ready.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining

Only a 4 because the Lido and MDR were only ok but the specialty restaurants were excellent
Tamarind

This was actually the new restaurant inside Tamarind called Morimoto. The was by far the best food we had all week

The food and service were very good
Onboard Activities
2 out of 5
Not many activities outside of some trivia, shopping and art, card games, board games. Activities are not their thing

The band at the Rolling Stone lounge was fantastic and played a variety of styles.

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Forgot to take a picture. This was an accessible cabin so it was a little larger and has a nice balcony. Also had a walk-in shower. Great location right around the corner from the elevators and stairs. Going right up the stairs one flight puts you at the entrance to the Lido or the Seaview pool/bar
Ship tip
Be prepared to spend some money in the casino as there isn't really much else to do. We spent a lot of time poolside and in the casino
Owned by Carnival Corp. Not close to anything. There is a pool area with a restaurant, bar, plenty of loungers. Can do this on the ship. You need to pay for a taxi- 70 round trip - or book an excursion to leave the area. Nothing in walking distance
