This was my first Carnival cruise & I went with an open mind on how it would all go. At the end of the 4 nights it was difficult to find any real negatives. I actually mentioned to my husband after the cruise; we never heard one complaint by any of the passengers on board the ship....that is so unusual!! I generally do not write reviews but I felt that my experience may be helpful.
TAMPA PORT: Flawless; never a line at the airport or the port; we boarded the ship immediately. A taxi ride from TPA to the port is $22 one way; very convenient. The airport employee at the taxi stand actually said to us, “welcome to Tampa International, least busiest airport in the world“.
CARNIVAL INSPIRATION: The ship was recently refurbished; you would never know this ship was built over 10 years ago. The new water slides toward the aft of the ship were a huge hit for all ages!! The cabins were spacious, we had an ocean view roo which was clean and the beds very comfortable. The pool area had all new lounge chairs and a covered stage. The pool never seemed to be too crowded, the pool & deck chairs were always available.
FOOD: The food was the best I have had on a cruise in a few years....not only in the dining rooms but also at the buffet.
SERVICE: From the cabin steward to the shore excursion desk and all in between, the service was impeccable.
ENTERTAINMENT: We saw a few shows...they were very entertaining and enjoyable. The singers/dancers were great! If I had to find any one thing negative it would be the layout. The cruise lines have improved the layout of the newer ships. The Inspiration at times was a little difficult to get around; I would have to change elevators to get to different decks. The life boats were all mounted at the lido deck and were an obstruction to the ocean view by the main pool area.
