Carnival Cruise Line

MS Ecstasy

Your Rating:Five Stars
Reviewed by:Judy Peterson
# previous cruises: 1
Date of Trip: November 30, 1998
Itinerary: Mexico - Eastern

Overview
This was our first cruise, and we were thoroughly impressed with the quality of service, food, and the staff's professionalism. We were well informed at all times and would take another cruise on the Ecstasy anytime.

Public Areas
The main lounge was quite comfortable and very large and very accessible to our room. The pool was always full and we did not have the desire to get in, but enjoyed sitting along the lido deck while sailing.

Food and Service
The food and service was excellent in the main dining room. We ate at the buffet on the lido deck for breakfast nearly every morning and that was very good also.

Cabins
We had a very nice inside room and much larger than anticipated. The closet space was very ample and the shower was larger than the one we have at home.

Entertainment
We attended all of the shows and found them to be very good and professional. The cruise staff was always there to help, and eager to assist.

Activities
We stopped at Key West and then on to Cozumel. We went ashore at Key West and did a little shopping and while in Cosumel we went out on one of the snorkeling cruises. Child care is available, however, we did not need the use of it.

Who Goes
We enjoyed meeting the people we ate dinner with and talking with them. Average age of the passengers was probably 40.
