we had 23 people in our group, and all had a blast! Ship activities were fun, comedians were funny, stage shows were great. We had early dining in the Scarlet dining room at 6 each night, table 654. Ellen and Jani were great waiters and servers, every suggestion and request was taken care of almost instantly! our cabin steward was awesome, Putu was always about asking if there was anything we needed......Ship was large but still had a cozy feel to it. Putt Putt Golf was a hit with all of us, food was great at each place we ate, especially in the dining room. Buffets were always busy but never a longer wait than a few minutes.......the older boys loved the Deli, (aft, Lido), and overall was a great experience. We are planning to again cruise in 2015 and again with Carnival. We enjoy the ship activities and the budget friendly rates that Carnival has. Hennie and Gabe were the CDs on this cruise and were always upbeat and friendly at all of their shows......I highly recommend this cruise for everyone interested in a great time and fun filled, family vacation! You will not be disappointed!
