The last time we cruised was over 10 years ago. 3rd time on carnival, 1st time on liberty. Everything was awesome. We have two boys 17 & 11. We only seen them @ ports and dinner time. They had the time of their lives. They also had their own stateroom right next to ours.
So much to do on this cruise.
The staff was great. Food was good. I recommend the brunch that is served twice during the week. Best meal by far. The pizza was pretty decent and the ice cream was on point. The guy burger joint on the lido deck is really delish. Sure.. anyone will grow tired of eating the same thing everyday but it's still good food. We would eat out for lunches etc while in port. Gave us a chance to try out the local authentic foods. During sea days we would eat guys, deli, burritos, or pizza. No complaints on the food or service. Carnival really has stepped it up a bit. Our room stuart was great. Came in twice a day and always had fresh clean linens and towels. He was very involved in our needs. Knew our names and desires.
We were on the empress deck, near the steps and elevators but when it was late, ready for bed we didn't hear a thing. Not sure if that was because we were exhausted from all the fun. I was happy with the bed, and space of the cabin. We put our suitcases under the beds - fits perfectly. Plenty of closets space. The room temp was cool enough for me and I like it cool. Usually 69. You have the option to put it warmer if you like. Like I said - no complaints.
