My sons (12 and 14) and I really enjoyed our cruise on the Imagination. This was their 8th cruise and my 12th (9 with Carnival). I read through the negative reviews and I cannot understand why so much negativity. It was a really enjoyable time.

This cruise we opted for a junior suite on the 11th floor. I love having a balcony and access to fresh air and once you have had a balcony, it is hard to go back to only a window. The pleasant embarkation was worth the price increase alone. I have done FTTF a few times in the past and this was even better. We basically walked into the Captain’s Lounge. We got our cards immediately, then we sat in the lounge enjoying free wifi until the lead us the priority line. The sequence of passengers were a wedding party, another family of 3 and then us. We were on the ship eating on the lido before anyone else.

The room itself was really good (V21). It wasn’t bigger than a balcony cabin on the Dream as it was a “junior suite” but it had my balcony. The balcony was narrow but that is all I needed. The hallways were super quiet as there are not many cabins on that floor. I have to mention as well about how quiet the room was. One night I was returning to my cabin and my neighbours were blasting some really bad music as I walked by their door. I was disappointed thinking I would have to listen to the thump thump thump in my cabin. To my surprise, when I walked in my cabin and shut my door, I heard nothing.
