Great cruise, enjoyed our Carabian cruise immensely. But having cruised before, we found the food a bit tedious. Staff lovely. Drinks expensive. Especially adding tips on as well. Entertainment was ok, but a wee childish for our taste. Our room was brilliant & had a large balcony which we enjoyed. To be honest I've been on better ships, but it's great value for money & I would consider Carnival again .

This was our first cruise and overall we had a good time and saw some new and interesting destinations. We thought you should have advised us of the tipping policy when we bought the cruise. As this was our first cruise I ended up spending a long time on the carnival website trying to understand the procedure for boarding, labeling, etc and thought you could have at least drawn out attention to the new experiences. The food and service were generally excellent. The stateroom was also excellent. We did two excursions with Carnival and they were OK if a bit pricey. It is quite a commercial atmosphere when you are on board and we must have been asked 20 times if we wanted our photo taken, which we didn't want. The entertainment was OK but not exceptional. Next time I think we will go on a UK ship, not American.

We had our first cruise with Carnival, it was my daughters honeymoon/family vacation as my daughter leaves for the navy and this will be our last vacation for a while. This was the most memorable vacation I have ever had, it was amazing, the ship was amazing and the staff. Please dont get me started on the food my clothes won't fit right lol. We did the 8 day cruise to Grand Turk, St Maarten, St Thomas and Puerto Rico, each port of call was just as beautiful. I will recommend this cruise to anyone who will listen to me. The staff who clean our cabin to our waiter Art and guest services and of course Cory lol was just great!! I look forward to doing this again really soon.
