Carnival Jubilee is the latest mega-ship from @Carnival. We just returned from 7 days onboard this ship, and it certainly surprised us. Find out what we loved and hated about this new Carnival Cruise Line ship with our honest Carnival Jubilee Cruise Review.

From the hamburgers at Guys Burger Joint to burritos at Blue Iguana and Shaq's Big Chicken, there is plenty to enjoy on the pool deck. Inside is the Coastal Slice with some of the best pizzas at sea. Guy's Pig and Anchor BBQ on sea days, and Beach Buns. While the Casual Dining was fantastic, the main dining room was average. With Dine Your Way, we could eat at the Pacific Restaurant on Carnival Jubilee. Plus, we had the ability for the Carnival Jubilee review to eat at ChiBang and Cucina del Capitano. So, the flexible dining program's variety of options is a plus. While cruising, take advantage of the sea day brunch. During our seven days onboard Carnival Jubilee, we tested two of the specialty restaurants. The steakhouse Fahrenheit 555 served admirable selections for the price. Rudi's Sea Grill offers seafood selections with plenty of flavor, too. Several additional upcharge restaurants, including the popular teppanyaki steakhouse and Bonsai Sushi, are also available. Another typical element of the Carnival Jubilee cruise ship was the staterooms. Our balcony stateroom was on par with the competition. We feel the staterooms across the Carnival Cruise Line fleet are pretty bland, but what they lack in style is made up for in functionality. So, with plenty of storage and outlets, it was more than comfortable for the entire week. Carnival Cruise Line ships are known as the fun ships, and Carnival Jubilee was no different. The cruise director, Kyndall Fire, made sure to keep the energy up all week. From the cruiser competitions to trivia sessions, game shows, and other Fun Squad events, there was a lot happening on Carnival Jubilee. There were also a plethora of daytime activities. At night, there was a variety of live music throughout the ship. Over the seven nights, five different comedians offered adultβand family-friendly sets. Other activities like karaoke, Deal or No Deal, and several deck parties meant there was something to do at all hours of the day. Carnival Jubilee boasts five different pools on the outdoor decks. The largest is the Beach Pool on Deck 16. There are also two aft pools, the Tides Pool and the Patio Pool. At the Serenity, adults have their own sundeck with a pool, two whirlpools, and plenty of loungers and day beds. Families can also enjoy the Ultimate Playground. This sports deck has a mini-golf course, basketball court, jogging track, and an impressive waterpark. There is also Bolt, the electronic rollercoaster. This 45-second ride is worth the $15 upcharge. While there were various daytime and nighttime activities, the bar line-up was standard. For our review of Carnival Jubilee, we made sure to stop at all of the bars. Among our favorites was the new Dr. Inks. We also enjoyed the cocktails at the Golden Mermaid and some mellow piano music.
