Comedy club toooo small

Too windy on upper decks
Have to climb like 7 stairs for waterslide
Enjoyed the ...
My family and I have been on several cruises and we chose the Carnival Sunshine based on the features that attracted my children. They loved the online photos of the SkyCourse, Water Works, and the Lido Deck. We were worried about the mixed reviews, but figured that we would take the chance.
The embarkation process was fairly quick and painless. We chose a 1pm board time since the place is ...
This was the first cruise my husband and I have ever been on. We selected Carnival because it was more budget conscious and we didn't want to waste a lot of money in case we ended up disliking the entire cruising experience.
We arranged bus transfer from Orlando Airport (we live in New York) to Port Canaveral through Carnival and that went very smoothly. I purchased Faster to the Fun which got ...
This is our 10th cruise and 9th on Carnival.
We (wife and me) chose this one due to itinerary (stop in Half Moon Cay).
This ship is older one restored with new features (water park, rope course, seaside theater etc.). Balcony showed signs of wear.
Food was plenty and good.
We love the your time dining as we didn't have to wait in line and we showed up when convenient to us. Out of 5 ...
So this was my 4th cruise with Carnival but 20th cruise overall. My preferred line is NCL and Princess, and after cruising on the Carnival Miracle 2years ago which was AWFUL, I had low expectations of the Sunshine.
However, it did not disappoint, it was infact one of my favourite cruises of all time.
Pro's-
-Food was fantastic. The buffet was huge with lots of choice and you could use ...
We thought we would finish off our epic family holiday to the US with a cruise around the Bahamas. I'd read a few mixed reviews of the Sunshine, so wasn't sure exactly what to expect. I am very pleased to say that we had the best time during our 5 day cruise on the Sunshine. Our family of four thoroughly enjoyed every day of the itinerary, and there really is something for everyone on board the ...
We flew into Orlanda Airport from Nashville. This was a smooth and easy flight. Embarkation was fast even without FTTF! Grand Turk was so much fun at Jack's Shack. Lovely beach and good fook. Bonaire doesn't have much available. Aruba was another great port, we did the UTV adventure and would do again. Emma Nixon was a fantastic cruise director. The shows were great and the comedians were very ...
Am part of a group that plans ahead and travels together. We will have a good time together no matter what. I was a little disappointed with the room steward. When on board, I had to hunt her down. My request was simple.. ice everyday and just turn down service at night with of course a towel animal. Received no service that night and towards evening of the next day, she told me she would service ...
Wanted to take a longer cruise than 4 days and Port Canaveral was an easy drive, so we picked the Carnival Sunshine. Layout of ship was not easy to navigate. Only went to dining room two times. Too hard to get to. The ship was beautiful, food was okay - nothing to rave about. Too much time waiting for the later shows in the evening. You need to get in line an hour before in order to have a seat. ...
Boarded on 4/14/18 for 8 day cruise. From the walk up to terminal smell of urine and feces. Lasted for 3 days and we were on the 10th floor in room 10112! Our private balcony did not have a roof on it, so people on the decks above us could see right on to our balcony. Balcony chairs and table covered in what I thought was bird crap and it was actually paint.
Food was decent and wait staff ...
