Why This Carnival Celebration Balcony Cabin Was A Disappointment

[@kickingitwiththerooks]

Great tour 💙💙 thanks for sharing. I definitely prefer the privacy.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Thank you fam! Same here

[@VibingWithQS]

0:39, neat. The bathroom has everything we need. Hey person, lol. Yes to the 🍾 Nice view from the balcony, the clouds are breath taking. Monthly drill? Great share and nice tour.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Lol at hey person 😂. Yess the view was amazing! An oh the muster drill! Where they teach you how to put on the life jacket and what to do in case of emergency. Thanks for watching!

[@keshiah-stayblessed]

Thanks for sharing! The room was nice. I would not have minded the all-eyes-on-me balcony since I’m such a scaredy cat… More eyes to witness if something should happen to me out there…lol Looking forward to the rest of the vlog series. Say blessed. ✌🏾🙂🌺

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Now that is a good point! 😂. And way to keep it positive! Be blessed ❤️

[@philanddeetravels]

Who knew the showers came with detachable drains! Hahaha RJ is hilarious. Thanks for the tour.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Right who knew 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢 lol

[@Liamshavingfun]

Its good they are detachable so they can be cleaned.

[@onthegowithyolo]

I really like that light for late night when you need to get up.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Oh yes, it is great for that!

[@KeepingUpWithTheGriffins]

Great room tour, the bathroom is small but at least there's no shower curtain. The lighting looked great but yes very small. Loving all that counter space and the number of outlets that are available. Nice balcony view, but no privacy. great room fam!

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Yes!! Always a joy to see a glass door! Thanks for watching fam ☺️

[@allenfamilyadventures859]

I think the biggest complaint I hear about the newer ships is how small the cabins are. If you guys get a chance, try the cove balconies. They are enclosed and more private

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Yea I was ok with the size of the cabin but that bathroom was super tiny. Definitely want to try a cove balcony! Wanna try aft balcony too

[@SocialCouplepreneur]

This was a surprise to know this was a balcony room especially how small it seemed lots of space for stuff but not alot of space for the people! And the non privacy would be an issue thanks for bringing us along Family take care enjoy your trip!

[@TeamReeseTravels]

It was a great room overall, the balcony was a deal breaker

[@kelvinwatkins8974]

Thanks guys

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Thank you too

[@SocialCouplepreneur]

Very nice room tour plenty of space very cool! Not calling to remind them you had a gold card lol 😂😂

[@m.m.4645]

Well, it can only get better! We learned from that... Never again Costa!!!! Thanks for your good wishes - take care ❤️🙋

[@TeamReeseTravels]

❤️☺️

[@SocialCouplepreneur]

Good evening family we are here for this latest video let Go!

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Thanks for coming and glad you came to watch

[@NotEasleyBroken97]

Thanks for sharing. We are booked for April. Looks pretty much the same as the Mardi Gras.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoy the ship! We haven’t sailed Mardi Gras yet but have heard they are almost identical in design.

[@PrayShopCruise-fl3po]

Great vid!

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Thank you!

[@BeefromSC]

Nice video and lovely family!!! Thanks for sharing 🛳️🛳️

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Thank you so much!

[@PrathPrat7288]

"hi5 namaste" nice video & belated happy new year buddy:-*

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Happy new year and thank you so much

[@ItsBeyondGee]

Hey Fam! Thanks for the room tour. I was hoping to see a glass shower door 💪🏾 RJ in the shower cracking up 😂 The mirror and counter space is nice too. Blessings

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Yesss for the glass door 🙌🏽. Rj was so excited to hide in that shower 🤣. Yes we thought the counter space and storage was great, the room itself was nice too just wanted more privacy on the balcony! Thanks for watching ☺️

[@alisasadventuresincruising]

Too cute your cabin comes with an RJ !😂 nice room tour but that is an interesting balcony set up. Is it a new room category or is considered a standard for that ship? 🤔

[@TeamReeseTravels]

These new room amenities are something else, whole kids included now! 😂. I’m not sure if this is a new category, but we’ve sailed on smaller Carnival ships and the balcony cabins weren’t designed like this so I’m thinking it’s unique to Excel class. I don’t like it 😂

[@alisasadventuresincruising]

@@TeamReeseTravels 😂 I’m sure you guys are not the only ones disappointed with that layout thanks for making us aware.

[@JustKayaTV]

Great room tour I think I perfer a Cove balcony for more privacy

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Thank you! We have yet to try a cove balcony. Your video has me ready to try an aft balcony though.

[@roslynbarnett5416]

Thanks for the room tour. They should make the rooms bigger for what they charge you for the rooms.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

It was a decent sized room, I would have to liked to seen it bigger, but it works out!

[@ellec1009]

We just booked this cruise for December. We booked a Havana Cabana room and look forward to the privacy 🤞🏼 as we have no children. Ans hope to do some relaxing.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Congratulations, will this be your first cruise? That's going to be a great cabin!

[@lfmckinley1077]

How i laughed at the phone call 🤣

[@TeamReeseTravels]

I just wanted them to know 😂😂😂😂

[@LeonardFamilyFun]

Great room tour. I think they swapped the bathroom size for glass shower doors. The lack of privacy on the balcony, yeah, that is not great but I am sure you enjoyed the cruise anyway.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Hey there! It’s crazy how small these bathrooms have gotten, I think you’re right! And now I can’t decide what’s worse, a shower curtain or being able to touch all 4 bathroom walls with my elbows 😂. Yes we definitely enjoyed the cruise, thanks for watching!

[@jrosealmendras88]

Very nice

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Thank you very much

[@cydneystephen2814]

Hey Keke. Seems like the rooms are spacious on these new ships but the bathrooms are challenge. The Ascent the only one that looks a decent size. Off the topic but Rj soooo tall. Yes Keke. Prefer a chair 🪑 with back support. These storage ottomans kill my back. Like there is a USB on both sides of bed. Your extended balcony is huge compared to most. Thanks for the tour. The privacy or lack of a good point.

[@YourFavoriteCouple]

Those tiny bathrooms are disrespectful! Not you calling to remind them that you have a gold card 🤣🤣🤣. That seat would be a lot better if it had a back. We hate the lack of balcony privacy, but we still love the Excel class ships. Great video, fam!

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Hey fam! I had to let them know, that’s all 🤣. I did love the ship itself, but mannnnnn everybody can see everything on that balcony. I was scared to look on others balcony’s for fear of what I might see 🤣🥲. Thanks for watching fam!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Enjoyed the room tour, but sheesh that bathroom is smalllll!

[@TeamReeseTravels]

It’s so tiny!!!!

[@TeamReeseTravels]

It’s so tiny!!!!

[@SocialCouplepreneur]

Lol 😂 that was funny 😂

[@TeamReeseTravels]

😄😄😄😄

[@Th3TravelingTexans]

It’s such a small room and bathroom. The previous Carnival cruise I was on had more room. Geez. Oh no!!! The balcony was hilarious. Nah fam! Who designed this ship? I agree the balcony design is not it. I’d have to get an OV or a suite or something else, lol. 😮Great room tour though. Looking forward to the series.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Yea it’s like the bigger these Carnival ships get the smaller the bathrooms and elevators get. It’s crazy. And nah we weren’t feeling that balcony at all. We normally spend a lot of time on the balcony but not this time. I like my privacy 🤣. Thanks for watching!

[@kelvinwatkins8974]

Team Reese all day

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Always and thanks

[@m.m.4645]

It is the type of balcony we had on Costa Smeralda, since we got an upgrade from oceanciew we thought the world of it. We would not care about people looking. Well - until we learned that on Costa you are allowed to smoke on balconies. We were surrounded by smokers on all the balconies around, above, underneath. 🤮 The only people that didn't smoke were next door, but they had the most screaming kid on the world. About 18 months old. No night sleep possible, that kid would scream EVERY night for hours - the parents couldn't care less ! So we were unlucky with balcony and stateroom in general. 🤷🤷🤷

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Omg smoke on the balcony had to be miserable 😩. I would be so unhappy, I cannot stand the smell of smoke! I have learned how to tune kids out 😂 but crying all night, I’m sure that sucked too. Sorry you had a bad experience. Hopefully the next one will be better!

[@Ednabug]

Please don't leave the baby in the shower lol. I love that wall art, I can see it being an under/over situation lol. NIce cabin tour.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

He was so excited to hide in there, lol. Thanks for watching!

[@JD-et4ny]

That Miami heat is no joke

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Facts!

[@SIGCruiser]

Great room tour! I like everything...except that lack of privacy! I mean, not a partial view. We're talking FULL views of other people's balconies. Not good!

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Thank you! I fully agree! And I feel bad cause I really don’t like to complain, but geesh. One of the people above us came out and started having a full blown convo with us. I was like ummmm lady I didn’t come out here for a community session, I just wanna drink my mimosa in peace 🤣

[@SIGCruiser]

@@TeamReeseTravels As an introvert....OH NO!!!

[@TeamReeseTravels]

🤣😂🤣

[@clintmorris4090]

You need to do more homework before you book a cruise. I am booking a cruise for next year and already know that there is not privacy on the balconies.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Enjoy your cruise!

[@joeyfloores376]

The carnival celebration as a whole was a disappointment. The leader deck buffet was terrible. The main dining room food was terrible. The only thing we ate while we were on the celebration was big chicken, which was awesome guys burgers which was awesome the Italian restaurant oh my God was awesome. Don’t waste your time in Chang. It was terrible their signature steakhouse. They should’ve paid me to eat there. I don’t know what carnivals doing differently when it comes to preparing food, but they completely sucked the big dog on that one and I was on a cruisetwo weeks ago and the food was nasty

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Omg the food was not great when we were on either. Emeril’s was the only restaurant we thought was absolutely delicious. And of course Guys, Big Chicken, Blue Iguana - those never disappoint. But the Italian restaurant was awful, Chibang was decent but we waited forever for our food, buffet and main dining were mediocre at best. It was not good!
