So let me start by saying that I read a lot of reviews on this ship leading up to my cruise to see what the consensus was. We went on a Carnival Cruise 2 years ago and found it to be ok, but wanted a nicer ship and better food.
Embarkation-A breeze!! We were checked in and on the ship within 15 minutes. We took care of purchasing some drink packages, an excursion and we were up in the Windjammer eating lunch. Let me get the one negative out of the way now. The Windjammer is a waste of time. The food any time I was up there was a huge disappointment. Any time I wanted lunch I went to Sorrento's and got half decent pizza or some good sandwiches.
Rooms- Our room(outside cabin 3rd Floor) was clean and the beds were comfortable. The rooms are what they are. As long as they are clean, I am happy.
Pancho's Backyard was great for lunch
A few stores and then back to the ship. Did not have much interest
Relaxation on the beach!
