Embarkation CARNIVAL MIRACLE Transfers from airport were prompt and drivers very entertaining. At the dock customs was a breeze and we were on the ship within 45min. Couldn't have asked for a better embarkation experience.
Cabin/Cabin Steward The cabin was an interior with an upgrade to the Verandah deck. Your typical cruise cabin, with shelving in the bathroom, that came in handy. Our steward,Soni was great we had new robes, towels, a friendly attitude. He called us by name and preserved all the towel animals so that I could take a picture at the end of our voyage as I requested at the start of the cruise. We truly enjoyed our cabin staff.
Dining This being my fourth cruise and my fiance's first dining was ok. The one complaint I have is that the staff seemed to have more tables than I would have liked. But despite that every night I had my lemons for my water already on the table. They really did pay attention to detail. They danced for the guests every night and truly seemed to enjoy what they were doing. The food was amazing and the presentation better than expected. We did choose to dine one night at Nick and Noras for the extra $30 a person. It was well worth it. The food was beyond gourmet. I would highly recommend you take advantage of this while on your voyage.
