We didn't realize this was a spring break cruise when we booked and I was concerned it might ruin our anniversary cruise to have so many kids onboard. Overall, this was not an issue. Most of the kids and even the college age spring breakers were well behaved.

The shows and food were typical for Carnival...not the best but enough to keep you well satisfied with the variety. The chocolate buffet was Delish! Also enjoyable was the burrito bar, which is like a Chipotle Carnival style. We did the early dining in the Black Pearl, and the service was excellent. The Maitre'd, Desi was unlike any Maitre'd I'd ever met. She is funny and involved with all the customers. She stopped at our table every night with a funny story. She treated our table to a bottle of champagne when she heard we were celebrating our anniversary and she personally leads the singing and dancing waiters.
