We received good reviews on certain aspects of Carnival from friends. So we relied on them. The cost was also a factor in this decision.

The cabin space though Interior is compact. Just enough for 4 people to sleep and maybe spend some time relaxing. Not much of moving room. Even items of luggage may need to stacked up. Use the closet space wisely.

Bathrooms are clean, small, good hot water at all times.

The cabin space though Interior is compact. Just enough for 4 people to sleep and maybe spend sometime relaxing. Not much of moving room. Even luggages may need to stacked up. Use the closet space wisely.

Cabin is very cold at night times - we like it that way.

Dining is exceptional - there is very little that you can think of that they don't offer. Elation had a full course Authentic Indian Vegetarian food - that I still can't rave enough about.

Entertainment options are very limited - not much variety. Adult programs are not very funny and loud without much taste or quality. Just bland stuff.

Public pools are too small nothing fancy. Not much of even waterslides etc.,

Alcohol and coke is pricey and charged.

One thing I hated is the element of mandatory gratuity added to the account - there is no transparency or clarity in this cost.
