Carnival Cruise Line

MS Paradise

Your Rating:Five Stars
Reviewed by:B. Belk
# previous cruises: 3
Date of Trip: October 21, 2001
Itinerary: Caribbean - Eastern

Overview
This was the best cruise I have been on yet. I have really enjoyed this non smoking vessel. The rooms are the most spacious of any ship I had ever been on. The staff is the most friendly,they were very nice and helpful.Everyone needs to cruise at lease once in life. If they ever cruise this ship or any other carnival ship they will want to do it again and again!

Public Areas
The public areas are very comfortable. They allow you to be able to get together with friends and talk as well as see others walking by.

Food and Service
I was served in the elation dinning room. The food was wonderful. I also had the opportunity to eat from the buffet on lido deck. I do think that there could have a bit of a variety at the midnight buffet.

Cabins
I stayed on the Riviera deck. The room was quite large the largest rooms I have ever stayed in on a cruise. I enjoyed the room as much as I was in there!

Entertainment
I went to every show after dinner. The entertainment was the best. It is also good that the staff allowed the cruisers to take part in the entertainment with the talent show. The cruise line dancers were magnificent!!

Activities
The at sea days give you a chance to enjoy the ship. You can take advantage of the ping pong tables the chess game and the spa.The slide pool was the greatest. I never had to wait in line like at an amusement park. It was also interesting to go to the health spa and work out while overlooking the ocean. All the equipment was operational and clean. Going ashore we did a lot of shopping and got a chance to swim with the stingrays and fed and held them.

Who Goes
There was a very large group of people there who were from the same organization that I am from so I got a chance to meet them and exchange phone numbers so we could get together once we returned home.
