Creator's Key Takeaways

we have been on the sunshine four or five times now love the ship but we're going to give you an update in 2024 what we think about it

it was probably the worst room we've ever had now it it was for three people me and Michelle and Anthony

the dinner buffet was very limited with Carnival um and usually they didn't have a lot of the sections open

we absolutely love that area you got a nice bar there bartenders are great The View out there yeah the view is great

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book your cruise earlier to get a better room
Use the Havana Bar area for breakfast and snacks
Tip your room steward well if they do a good job
Consider asking for a table instead of a booth in the main dining room if you are larger

Cabin size and comfortBook earlier to get a better room; consider a table instead of a booth in the main dining room if you are larger.
Buffet limitationsUse alternative dining areas like the Havana Bar for more options.
Crowded pool deckGo early or look for shaded areas; the ship is popular and can feel overcrowded.
