One of Carnival’s Fantasy-class ships, it offers a competitively-priced short break. The décor is glitzy and the atmosphere is lively. A talking point is the vintage Rolls-Royce on the promenade. Service is quick, but there is a lot of up-selling.
Suitability
Generally Carnival is aimed at a younger, predominantly American crowd that likes to have fun.
This ship attracts a younger crowd than normal Carnival cruises. Offering Texas-Mexico year-round short cruises, there are unlikely to be many Brits on board, although it is possible to tie in a short cruise with a land-based stay.
Hints & Tips
Charges are made to your on-board account for tips as soon as you arrive. This can be removed or altered at your request.
There is a charge for welcome drinks handed out on arrival, though this is not made clear when it is thrust in your hand.
