Sail Date: Feb 2009
Cabin: Interior

EMBARKATION: We arrived too early at the port and had to wait 20 mins before we were allowed to embark but then went on the ship immediately at 11:30am. Carnival were very obliging and their directions were easy to follow. We sat in the beautiful Atrium Lounge waiting for our family to arrive with our DOD. Then until the end of the cruise it was non-stop fun, food and frolic the whole way.

PUBLIC ROOMS: All the public rooms were beautiful, clean and totally relaxing. The Atrium was outstanding, of course. The public decks were great to walk around with great ease. Chaise lounges were no problem to get on this trip. The Lido deck was fun to sit and watch TV and at night in rocking chairs and if breezy the Carnival staff provided nice warm blankets for those who wanted one. Food and drinks were always right at hand close by. Loved the public rooms.

CABIN: As I mentioned below our cabin was great for us and most comfortable in every way. The bathroom was plenty big enough. Closets were huge and drawer space was plentiful. Desk, fridge, safe (great feature), lighting, TV, ice bucket filled all the time, wine glasses provided upon asking, one chair and one large stool - enough for us. Loved the color theme of the cabin. Lots of lights and good for reading in bed. Climate controlled by us. No complaints at all.

Cabin Review

Interior

Cabin 4D

Our Interior Cabin 4D on the 7th deck was a great cabin for the two of us. It was cozy, nice and dark for sleeping, very quiet location, smallish but roomy enough for us, nicely decorated, middle of the hall in the aft section, linens, towels and pillows great, terrific service from our room steward and all staff in our area were always co-operative, smiling and saying hello - our room steward knew us by our names. We have stayed in Balcony rooms, Deluxe Owner's Suites and other Interior cabins and for the value and comfort we see nothing wrong with an inside room at times. It also affords ways in which to spend the dollars we save. We were hardly in our room and always exploring the ship and decks and ports. But is was always nice to get back to our cabin.
