First of all, we paid 1600$ for a familly of 4, 4 nights cruise over Christmas. I could not expect anything "grandiose" but I was pleasantly surprised by Carnival.

To make sure your kids let you party at night, they organise "kids partys" with the Club. Yes you have to pay babysitting fees after 10PM but you get a night alone with your hubby.
