I chose this cruise because of the 4 different ports and because it fell withing my birthday. I really loved amber cove because it had a pool and bar as well as activities and zip lining. I don't have much to say about st Thomas.really a bore if you don't have excursions. Puerto Rico is my culture so it was great to see San Juan as a tourist, i had some traditional Puerto rican food and piraguas. My birthday was spent at grand Turk with the most beautiful beach view of the ships, Margarita and an awesome DJ. I would def book another cruise in December because of the Christmas theme most of all. I took my 15 month old which caused me to be extremely tired by the time nightlife rolled around. There is NOTHING to do for under 2 year olds at all not even a swimming pool so I will not be cruising again until he is 2. just a heads up parents! Food was amazing and so was our steward and even for being on deck 1 everything was greatly accessible. Cruise director MarQ was amazing!!!!! Activities were all fun and family friendly. Great dining and a host of different foods. Unbelievably affordable for the 5 of us.

Cabin Review

Cabin deck 1 oceanview

Great cabin size and 1 bunk wasn't even used out of the 2 so we technically could fit one more person which I wish carnival would have let us do since we are a family of 6. one of our kids were left out.
