10/10 Carnival

Just went on this cruise with my dad, stepmom, brother, and little sister. We came from Grand Rapids Michigan drove to Virginia which was about 12 hours. Were used to long drives lol. Once we got on the cruise I could feel the good vibes coming from the workers and our fellow cruisers. Everyone’s there for a good time and it definitely was! We visited Grand Turk, Amber Cove, and Half Moon Cay my second Cruise ever. Such a great time, the people, the food, the drinks of course! When it comes to being scared of big boats and at some points only seeing water around you I know how you feel. Trust me most of the time you’re on board you don’t even remember you’re on a cruise ship. And apparently you’re safer on a cruise ship than you would be on land when it comes to hurricanes/bad weather. The ship has the technology to know when those things are going to happened well before it comes close to the ship. The captains would just drive away from the storm if they need to. Felt safe and welcomed the whole time aboard. But Tasha, and Kevin down at the Red Frog made it so much better. Missing them already 10/10 Carnival I’ll be back for sure!

Great time on my first cruise for a wedding.

This was my first cruise ever and i thought it was great. Yes there were a lot of kids as it was spring break and sometimes it got crowded in the common areas but it was still a great time. There were constant activities every day from live shows, trivia, game shows and more. We were on this cruise for a friends wedding and it was beautiful. The staff did such a great job for all aspects of the wedding. The captain performed the ceremony and fun was had by everyone in attendance. The housekeeping staff was great and very accommodating. Our servers in the main dining room were the best. Especially "Mega". I thought the food quality was good. There were different choices each night and they made sure to ask about allergies for everyone on the first night. They also had friendlier desserts for diabetics with "no sugar added". Overall the main dining room was my favorite place to eat. They also had other options like the buffet on the Lido deck, guys burger joint, the blue iguana cafe, a deli, and a pizza place. Our cabin was a perfect size for the three of us. Yes it showed its age with some discoloring on the walls and ceiling but we used the cabin to sleep. I didnt care if the wall was discolored as everything was clean and well kept. Other areas of the ship may have been showing its age but we had a great time and i am already looking at cruises for next year.

Casino Rewards

This was our first cruise so I am going to add a few tips as well. The bohemian kitchen in Nassau is delicious. If you want to try authentic cuisine on the island. The fried lobster was the bomb as well as the steamed chicken. If you do the chair/ umbrella rental, the beach with them is about 2 miles. We walked there to shop along the way but took a taxi back which was only $10. He told us how much upfront. There’s plenty of beach before that so you can choose a place closer. We won over $6000 in the casino so don’t be afraid to gamble people were winning everywhere. We got offered a free dinner at the steakhouse and a bottle of wine. It was very good but I would not recommend the oysters because they smoke them and have a foam on top. We prefer them saltines and hot sauce. The colossal shrimp was colossal and very good as well as the cowboy steak. We got offered a free cruise with drink package before we got off the ship. So if you gamble put your players card in the machine to earn points. I was told 7000 was the lucky number and my husband and I had that combined. Jeovanni is a server in the casino and provided exceptional service! He remembered our names, drinks we prepared and always had a smile on his face! We left him extra tips to show our appreciation. We took motion detector, magnetic nightlights and clipped one on the trashcan in the bathroom, which was perfect. We were on deck one and had no problem with the temperature or our refrigerator. We used our organizer and appreciated having everything handy in the bathroom. The chef’s table lasted over three hours so if you decide to do that plan on doing nothing else afterwards. I personally would not recommend it. Take advantage of getting pictures made with different backgrounds. Most important have fun!!
