It was our first cruise together as a couple and it was great! The boat, the destinations, the crew, and the other passengers made for an awesome time. We have already booked our next cruise! I have seen some people complain about Carnival, but I really can't think of anything to complain about. Even though the boat was a little dated, we had a fabulous time. The crowd was very diverse, and the service was second to none. Would definitely recommend this cruise.

The food was fantastic!! We are early birds, so we didn't see a lot of shows. I was actually glad that it was nice and quiet in our cabin after 11 pm even though there was a lot of activity taking place on the boat. We didn't hear a thing, and I slept like a baby.

It took less than 30 minutes in Miami from parking to being onboard. And on the last day, we had to wait in line for a bit, but were still at our car by 9:30 am. We live about 3 hours from the port, so I cannot really comment on the travel time. We just drove to the port and parked. It was 20 dollars a day to park at the port. I think it is a little cheaper elsewhere, but then you need a shuttle to take you to the port. For us, it was not worth the savings.

Cabin was nice and clean. It was very roomy and comfortable.The A/C was kept nice and cool, just how we like it. The bathroom and shower were great. Nice water pressure and plenty of room.
