Carnival Dream Review

Additional details
I was traveling with my sister's family as a group of 7. Travelers were me (late 50's), my sister and her husband in their mid 40's, daughters 4, 17 & 21 and a son 6. We had 2 adjoining cove balcony cabins on deck 2 with me sharing with the 3 girls.
Our embarkation on Jan 5, 2013 was very quick and we were on board enjoying lunch by 11:30 am. Our luggage arrived at our cabins smoothly and we unpacked and were ready to tour our new home. We toured camp carnival for the little ones and the spa for us.
A new addition is the "cheers beverage program" which is similar to an all inclusive for liquor. It was $49/person/day including a 15% gratuity and all adults over 21 in the same cabin have to get it if one does. If you average 6 cocktails and 8 beers a day you will be even for the money. They can charge if you go over 15 drinks/day and there is not to be any buying drinks for anyone else. My sister and her husband tried this program.
Cabin Review
Cove Balcony
cabin 2290 and 2294, adjoining cove balcony cabins on deck 2. Plenty of closet space, sofa converted to a bed and a top bunk came down from the ceiling. We liked the cove balcony since it was partially enclosed and it seemed better with small children. We had 4 in cabin 2290 and 3 in cabin 2294.
