This was our second ever cruise, and second Carnival cruise. Embarkation was fast and easy. Although our "check in time" was 1:30, we were on the sip and enjoying a drink by 11:30. Our cabin was clean and comfortable, and our Cabin Steward, Rossi, was wonderful. He gave me a $50 coupon for the Spa, so I got a pedicure, and really enjoyed that. We didn't do any excursions, but enjoyed our stops in Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta. The dining room staff were all very pleasant and helpful. Our favorite waiter, Rolando, was wonderful, and made us feel like we had made a new friend. We met and talked with the cruise director, Adam, a very friendly, and personable man. We also enjoyed talking with the Atrium Bartender, Marabel, Every crew member that we talked to was very friendly and helpful. The evening entertainment was excellent. I have no complaints about the food. Everything was good and well presented. My only disappointment was debarkation. We wanted to get off early, so we opted for the "self-assist" but still couldn't get off until 11:30. But that was okay anyway. I still like Carnival, and have nothing bad to say about them.
