Editorial Summary

The creators provide a comprehensive tour and review of the Carnival Sunrise, noting that the vessel underwent a 200 million dollar refurbishment from the former Carnival Triumph. The tour covers various decks, including the Lido Deck with its water slides and Jumbotron, the Sports Square on Deck 12 featuring a ropes course and mini golf, and the adults-only Serenity Deck. The creators highlight several dining options, such as the buffet, the pasta bar, the Alchemy Bar, and the upcharge Cucina del Capitano, which they praise for its bread and meatballs. They also explore the casino, the video arcade, and the various kids' clubs. While the creators express high satisfaction with the food quality and the modern decor, they note some drawbacks. These include the small size of the atrium, the potential for motion sickness in certain dining areas due to engine vibrations, and a disappointing performance by a piano player. They conclude that despite some minor issues and rough seas during their trip, the ship is one of their favorite Carnival experiences due to the significant upgrades.

Creator's Key Takeaways

I think the buffet quality has been significantly better than most Carnival cruise ships I have been on.

Out of the 29 cruises we've been on, Molly, this is in first place.

The ship has come a long way since being the poop cruise, the infamous Carnival poop cruise.

I love it. If you have any questions or comments, or if you're going on the Carnival Sunrise and you've got some questions, you know, we we just did this cruise.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Use the Carnival Hub app for dining reservations instead of getting a buzzer.
βœ“Bring your own golf ball for the mini golf course to improve the experience.
βœ“Visit the Red Frog Pub early to avoid long lines at other bars.
βœ“Check product prices before buying on the ship, as they may be higher than online.

Motion sickness β€” Avoid dining at Cucina del Capitano if you're prone to motion sickness, as it's located at the back of the ship and feels every vibration.
Long lines at popular venues β€” Visit the Sports Square on a port day to avoid long lines for the ropes course.
