Second Carnival cruise, and have decided our last. The big ship experience is not what we're looking for at this point. And this itinerary (Ft Lauderdale, St Thomas, Antigua, Tortola, Nassau) was not a great one.

Stayed at the Ft Lauderdale Best Western City Centre - great hotel, walking distance to Los Olas Blvd shops and restaurants and Riverwalk. Part of the reason we booked here was the free shuttle to the cruise port, only 15 minutes away.

Tip #1 - spend the $20 and take a cab.

Cabin Review

Balcony

Cabin 8A

7208 - 8A balcony room. Motion more noticable than mid-ship (which we rather enjoyed) but bow thrusters really shake the cabin when docking the ship.

Great access to 7 forward for late night star-gazing as you're right under the bridge with no lights to spoil the view.
