Carnival Fantasy- 4 night to Key West and Cozumel

This ship is OLD and LACKS many of the amenities most of the new ships offer. We were a family of 4 with two kids ages 11 and 17.

Activities: There was not enough to do for older kids (11-17). The Kids Club was not even considered by my kids as there were no planned activities that caught their attention. There were not enough family activities or shows to attend on the ship. On the day that the ship was in Cozumel until 10pm, there was absolutely NOTHING to do at night in the ship. Considering that most people came back to the ship around 6-7 pm and went to dinner shortly there after, there was absolutely NOTHING to do for after dinner and the reminder of the evening. The only show offered was a rated R couples' game at 10pm, which was not an option for my family. Most people were walking around aimlessly bored out of their mind!!!. The only pool was always over-crowed. The water slides looked nice and fun for the younger kids. The only activities available for my kids were ping pong and mini golf. It would have been great if there was a basket ball court on the ship.... We enjoyed the comedy shows with Percy Crews II and Jorge Solano offered on two different nights and the Bingo game. Aside from these, we really didn't have much to do ! We definitely wished Carnival had focused more on entertainment.
