Cabins that have the bed by the balcony have an extra storage cubby vs the cabin you were in. I was in Cove #5314 and we had plenty of room for all our extras… and I’m an overpacker. I had done extensive research to make sure I booked a cabin with the bed by the balcony to get the extra storage and better usability (in our opinion!). I agree with all of your scores and assessments. We only ate at the MDR once and were glad we had made reservations at all specialty dining and ate at ChiBang and Cucina.

Never been on this ship. Thanks for the review!

Glad you liked it. There's also a ship tour and a dining review if you want more info.

Think we were in the same trip (Cozumel, Costa Maya and Honduras) that ended on Jan 3rd. Even that wr have a stateroom, agree with the space of the bathroom, closet and the outlets near the beds. The shows at the Center Stage love it, and also agree with you regarding the gymnastics. Without that, the rest of the show is mmmmm welll, ok. Love the food at Lido floor (buffet, Big Chicken, and asian food) Hate to be 2 days on the sea. Think they need to correct the stops to avoid being 2 days on the water. OMG, the rescue process 🤣🤣🤣, love ittt. Hate that Lee was talking all the time announcing updates. Think that Carnival should avoid that to not worry (or over worry) the clients.

I was on the 12/11 sailing. How cool that you got to be part of a rescue at sea!

I completely agree about the shows and the Center Stage setup. The space itself is beautiful, but not suited for live shows such as the Magical Circus. I also didn’t see what all the hype was about that particular show. The acrobatics were amazing, but I thought the rest was boring. Overall though….love Carnival and that new ship. It was beautiful. 👍

hi Mindy! I'm so glad you commented. I really thought I was the only one who didn't love that show.

You rank Carnival similar to Disney 🙁🙃

[@TripswithAngie]

I did indeed. The food options available on the Celebration were much better than Disney. We had similar issues with service and food temperature on both lines. We don't have kids and aren't Disney fanatics. I was just looking at it as a cruise.
