Sail Date: Mar 2014

After being on RCI for 9 cruises this was our second cruise with Carnival. After being unimpressed the first time we decided to give Carnival another try and cruise on my Birthday.

We were looking for a 5 day cruise from Florida that were driving distances from our location. We looked at departures from Tampa, Port Canaveral, or Jacksonville. All three had sailings the date we were interested in. The Choices were Tampa on the Carnival Paradise, Port Canaveral on the Carnival Sensation (Our unimpressed first cruise with Carnival), or Jacksonville on the Carnival Fascination.

We had decided on Tampa taking the Carnival Paradise to Grand Cayman and Cozumel. The day prior to us booking this cruise we received a special offer from the Carnival in the mail. It could not have arrived at a better time and offered us a balcony stateroom at a great price on the Carnival Fascination. Even though we had been to the ports it visited the offer was too good to pass up.

Cabin Review

Our room was ready when we boarded. It was clean, looked good, and had more space added with the balcony. We stored empty luggage under the bed and had room enough for three adults with the pull down bed. There is plenty of natural light having a glass door and a window. At night the closed curtain keeps it dark.Although this was not an issue for me, this is the last room on the upper deck and not good if you have mobility issues and need a scooter or wheel chair.
