The Good
• Room Steward service was actually very good. He asked us up front if wanted our rooms serviced once or twice per day. That was the first time I had ever been asked that question. With three people in our smallish balcony room we requested twice a day. Both ice and towels were replenished every day.
• Bar service was also very good. We got the Cheers package, and certainly didn’t break even this time. Carnival has a decent cocktail menu that is worth exploring. The crowds on the ship sometimes made getting up to the bartenders a challenge. You just have to horn in and raise your voice a little. The Lobby Bar and Casino Bar stood out for us.
Cabin was way too warm in spite of many attempts to correct, See review. Mattresses really need to be replaced. Balcony was just fine. Room steward was quite good.
Nachi Cochum Beach Resort for a fantastic, quiet, all inclusive resort with a beautiful beach. $20 cab ride and a full day of paradise with a nice lunch for $59.
