Emrys Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Hi @Jesika, welcome to the new boards. To be honest, everyone has a different experience and outlook. There are good reviews too, so I wouldn't worry too much. The crew are always great on Carnival ships, and as it will be your first cruises, just have fun. When is your cruise and what's the itinerary? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

contractsmatter Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I was on this ship in 2018 for an 8 day cruise. It's not the biggest ship, but it's jammed full of stuff. The specialty restaurants are all great, the Havana bar is a really nice area, and Ocean Plaza is a great space in the evening for live music. It has the best Serenity deck of all Carnival ships. If you love chilling in a pool, it may be disappointing. The ship only has 2 pools, and neither are very large. Also the comedy club has a poor setup and not a ton of seating. Other than those issues, though, it's a great ship. Don't worry about negative reviews. Most people won't write about a good time, but are more than willing to tell anyone that will listen about a bad time. It skews reviews for anything and everything. You'll have a great time!

JAPBird143 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 When my husband and I got married 16.5 years ago, we booked on the carnival destiny, aka now the sunshine. This is a medium ship compared to others. It's a good ship, there's lots to do on a ship. Best investment for a honeymoon, make sure you get a balcony on the Port side. Do your own research, do not always liste to negative reviews. Enjoy, my husband and I have taken alot of cruise and we have 3 waiting the vaccine issues.
