I chose this cruise for the location, destination as well as the ship.It was perfect for us. It has a lot to offer like the water works area,sport deck was excellent. My grand children 10,11,12 fully enjoyed the rope course , the water racing slides,pool table, foose ball, chess , bean bag toss and mini golf. The pool itself is small but very nice and refreshing. Ship looks beautiful and clean. ...

My husband and I enjoyed our Carnival Sunshine cruise to Bermuda... The Sunshine reminded me of an older mini Vista. Some rust here and there but otherwise clean and still in great shape featuring all of the 2.0 upgrades and cute wooden doors. Shows were entertaining and the food on the ship was great and consistent! We decided this cruise to eat in the MDR every night however did enjoy the ...

Honestly, I've only been on a total of 4 cruises and 2 of them were when I was a kid. With that said, I boarded the Carnival Sunshine and was impressed with the beauty of the ship inside, as well as outside. Upon boarding, I was able to enjoy a delightful lunch on the Lido Deck and then went to my cabin once they announced that passengers could do so. I was impressed with the cleanliness of the ...

We wanted to take this cruise so we could experience the New England coastal cities. The Sunshine was better than what others have said. There was plenty of space and we always got into any show we wanted. The ship is smaller than the Dream class ships, but has all the features. The Ocean Plaza, which we have always enjoyed, next to the Red Frog Pub, which we have also always enjoyed, and ...

This was our 3rd Carnival cruise and we had a great time. The itinerary and timing was perfect for our 7 night getaway. We had perfect weather between all the disturbances in the Atlantic. The Sunshine and its crew made for a great trip. We really like Carnival because it really does have the fun ships! The Cruise Director was very informational and she made the trip fun whether you ...

I chose to take this cruise as I had to cancel one earlier in the year due to my DH's illness. We did this itiniery two years ago and enjoyed all the ports. This time I traveled with my two best friends and we had a balcony cabin for three which worked out just fine. I was pleasantly surprised on how much we liked the Sunshine. I had read some negative reviews prior to sailing. Sure, there might ...

We always wanted to try a New England / Canada Cruise. We were looking for something that was inexpensive and easy to access. This was our first time going on vacation without our kids. They're in college now. We live within an hours drive of the port. We did not explore NY City as we visit it regularly throughout the year. Embarkation went well. Debarkation was another issue. I ...

I loved the itinerary right from the start. The cruise director, Emma, was amazing and funny and really made us feel connected to all the exciting activities that were happening on the ship. The crew was great and the ship itself was clean. The diner crew were fun especially with the fun dancing and goodbye song (which made me cry). I couldn't been happier on this vacation!! Both of my ...
