Sail Date: Apr 2016
Cabin: Balcony

The new Embarkation process of the "check in time" needs a little work. I will definitely consider purchasing the Faster to the Fun pass next time, until we reach Gold level. Debarkation went much more smoothly though and we sailed right off the ship and through customs.

The ship was amazing. Plenty of space and nice seating areas. The smoking area was nice (as we are smokers), but it could get a little crowded occasionally and would have liked to have had more seating. I do believe Carnival should consider allowing smoking on balconies again. At least on a certain side of the ship.

Our cabin was 6283, a balcony room. It was nice. Not amazing, but nice.

Cabin Review

Balcony

Cabin 8A

Cabin was average. The entry door stuck a little and we had to pull it hard to be sure it shut behind us. Not worth complaining about though.

Port Reviews

Key West

This was wonderful. We hit all the high points in Key West; Hemingway House, Southermost Point, Kermit's Key Lime Shop, etc. Key West is beautiful and our Trolley drivers were very knowledgeable about the history and interesting facts of the island.

Freeport

This was a beautiful beach. The only guests at one time were those from our ship. However, there were too many of us at one time and it was pretty crowded. But overall, a nice excursion.

Nassau

Loved Nassau. We did our own thing here. We walked, saw some interesting sights, and shopped in the Straw Market.
