We had part of our honeymoon as a four day cruise with Carnival Cruise lines. Our cruise was from Miami, stopping at Key West to Mexico and back. It was our first experience of going on a cruise and it left us wanting to go on another cruise ...but next time to go on a British cruise line as it was a very American experience!.
We liked Carnival Cruise lines, the boat we went on was called the Fascination. The boat was staffed by friendly and helpful staff. Our cabin was an outside one and was very comfortable and of a good size (we loved our towel animals that where left in the cabin every night!). On board the facilities where excellent and it was easy to get involved in doing things. The food and choice of restaurants was very good. In particular the waiters and waitresses doing the evening dinner service went the extra mile and made for an excellent experience. The main night entertainment we did was to go and see the shows in the theatre. Most of the shows where excellent …. but it has to be said that some of the shows where chessy and not worth seeing.
