Carnival Dream Review
Rating by category
Additional details
Hello, After reading the mixed reviews on Carnival and especially the Dream we went into this cruise with an open mind and were blown away. We had such a great experience and will definitely cruise with Carnival again.The staff went above and beyond especially in the dining room and staterooms.
We stayed in Orlando the night before(due primarily to New England weather) and went to Universal it was very easy to get from our hotel in Orlando to the Cruise port and Avis who we rented our car form dropped us off right at the terminal. Getting on and off the boat was quick and easy.
The boat itself is massive and took a little bit to get used to. The food was good and on par with what we were expecting. Not fine dining but delicious and if it were a restaurant off the ship a place we would go back. There was so much to eat between the buffets, pasta bar and grills that we didn't even get to try everything. There was a lot to do on the boat for our group. We never had any trouble getting into the comedy clubs but there were lines before each shows-the late night R rated shows were hilarious. There were enough bars so that we could try a different one every night and really enjoyed the Piano Bar.
Cabin Review
Our cabin was small but sufficient. There were 3 closets so we had enough space to hang all of our things without needing any extra coat hangers. The bathroom had shelves along the mirror so we had no storage issues there either. There were not a lot of hooks only 2 on the bathroom door and 2 in the main room but it wasn't a huge deal. Our suitcases fit fine under the bed. The only time it was loud was during debarkation since we docked at around 630 AM and the announcements pretty much never stopped. A lot of the reviews said there was a sewerage smell but we never experienced that.
