This was my second cruise, the first was also with Carnival, on the Paradise. I did a lot of research before choosing this cruise. I chose this based on both the itinerary and the idea of having so many options for things to do on the ship. I was traveling alone and wanted plenty of options. I was not disappointed!

I flew down the morning of the cruise and had booked the transportation from the airport to Port Canaveral through Carnival. Everything was very smooth. The Carnival representative was waiting at the airport, was easy to find, and we had a very short wait. The bus was comfortable and took us straight to the embarkation area. Embarkation was as quick and efficient as can be. The man that checked me in was super friendly and it only took about 10 minutes until I was headed to my stateroom.

I had booked an inside guarantee, so I expected my stateroom to be something like a closet, but I was obviously given an upgrade because my room (1003) was fantastic! I was in the very front room on the 10th floor. I could have done a cartwheel in my room. I had a great window that looked straight out to a small lookout deck on the very front of the ship. My stateroom steward, Rodrigo, was excellent. After the very first meeting, he always remembered my name and even had my "schedule" down pretty well after the first few days. My only suggestion here is that the staterooms need a clock. I had to buy a watch on board because I don't usually wear one, so if I was in my room, I never knew the time. Also, there is only one outlet, and it's in sort of a tight spot. My nightlight that I brought wouldn't fit in the space. Bring a power strip.
