We chose this cruise because of the waterpark activities for our 9 year old daughter, and the ports of call, Mexico, Isla Roaton, and Belize.

The dining room was great, we only went 3 times and the food was delicious. We did breakfast and sea day brunch in the dining room and was also great! But make sure to grab a breakfast burrito from Blue Iguana for breakfast if you like those. I think we had a Guy's burger and some pizza everyday also! Those were great. Our cabin was standard inside, on deck 10, Lido, which was perfect!! We were on the same deck as the pool, food, and dive in movies. There was no issue with the noise level. Beds were comfy. We actually spent more time napping and relaxing on this cruise then we did last time, so we had plenty of room service too. Sandwiches hit the spot when were feeling lazy. The pools are smaller, but there are 2 pools, multiple whirlpools, and the water park! Was always able to find a chair or a lounger. The Red Frog Pub served up ice cold boat drinks all day! And like all Carnival drinks, they are strong =) But our favorite bar was ALCHEMY!!!

My daughter loved Camp Ocean, dive in movies on the deck, and the waterworks! Read more
