Fun times

March

Pros: Friendly staff. Great cruise director.

Cons: Rusty ship. Too much smoke in the casino.

Recommended: Yes

Weather impacted our activity. It was cold on all of the sea days. Very windy. Unfortunately we were not permitted to get off the ship in Grand Turk due to illnesses on the ship. Too smoky in the casino. They need to improve the air handlers in the casino or make it non smoking.

Hard-working crew!!!

March

Pros: I felt like everyone was working hard to keep the ship safe from germs and to make sure all the guests had a good time.

Cons: We didn't get to go to Grand Turk. I am so disappointed, but know it is not Carnival's fault.

Recommended: Yes

I have to give a shout-out to Simon London! What a great cruise director! That man is worth every cent you pay him!!!!! I was very impressed with the staff this year. Our cabin steward, Negara, was also very attentive and helpful. The only thing on deck I was slightly disappointed in was the comedian, Dan the Man. Didn't meet Carnival's standards, I thought. The song and dance shows were terrific! Loved the Karaoke! Loved the dancing in the lobby area!

Our first Carnival Cruise

February

Pros: Our cabin stewart was awesome and they both helped make our trip great

Cons: Not getting off in Grand Turks

Recommended: Yes

While we had a rough start it all ended in being an awesome trip for us. This was our first trip on a Carnival ship and we had been hearing negative things about this cruise line. But after this experience we would definitely sail again on Carnival.

The Magic

September

Pros: Blue Laguana Cantina, Cucina del Capitano, Room stewards & Bermuda

Cons: Buffets, slow service at Sea Day Brunch

Recommended: Yes

The ship was ok, but needs an over haul. Enjoy the spa room, Bermuda was great. We haven't sailed on Carnival in 5 years, remember the food being better. Had good time
