? about the Dream

[Starboard-33]

Those of you that have seen It In person, Is the Dream as awesome looking In person as It Is, In photos? It looks huge In pictures, the people standing around It, on dock looks like ants. The superstructure Is really tall looking. Thanks

[balcony bound]

YES! She's awesome.

 

Better in person, although I've seen some great photos. We're looking forward to sailing the Dream again.

Thank you, she looks awesome. I would love to have her or a sistership of her size come to Galveston.

Balcony Bound-I looked at your pictures and loved them and your Review. We have a 9A/9C wrap on the Dream in Sept. We will be on Deck 7. Any comments about Deck 7? Thanks!!

I can't wait to find out. We have a cove balcony booked in 8 weeks. :)

The Dream does, indeed, look large from the outside. The inside, however, doesn't seem to match up in largeness because major areas have been reduced to simply accommodate more cabins. The highlight of The Dream was, indeed, the cove balcony!!! Enjoy your cruise.

I've heard so many good things about the cove balconies! I know that this will be one of our most favorite parts of the ship. :)

I'm going to be posting a review later this week. We had a great time and would definitely sail on her again. There were some issues, but nothing that would keep us from having a great time.

we had a great time....

We are in a wrap also, 7459 for the 5/1 sailing next week. I guess my main concern is how bad the crowds situation really is. It seems to me that this being CCL newest ship, it was built with profit in mind and not passenger satisfaction. From what I have read it sounds like there are people on top of people. Is it that bad?

[wing2003]

We love the Dream! Would definitely sail her again... We too were concerned about the "bad" reviews. Just be aware there is always someone looking for something negative to say about something. She is a beautiful ship and you will have the "time of your lives". Enjoy! Make memories!

I didn't feel that the ship was too terribly crowded. Yea, it can get busy when people are waiting for the dining room to open and the lido lines can get long at times, but it doesn't seem any worse than it was on the Celebration. It was manageable.

 

The worst thing I saw was that the elevators took a while. Not a problem though. Just take the stairs.

Sounds like a great, magnificent ship. Thanks for responding.

We had a deck 7 aft wrap in February and really liked it. In fact we booked the same cabin on the Carnival Magic in Europe next May. We really couldn't tell that the Carnival Dream was bigger than the other Conquest class ships. We liked the layout on the Promenade deck 5 and appreciated the deck 4 lower Dream street walkway. The casino is opened up quite a bit. If you avoid the Lido at peak times you should be OK. Don't forget about the Pasta bar the floor above the Lido buffet. It wasn't crowded and was great. We ate brunch in the dining room and that was a good change. There was also a BBQ lunch on sea days on deck 5. We didn't get to it because it was too cold for us to go out but it seemed to draw a lot of people. You should have a great time.

Just got off the Dream and tried to keep a live report. If you look around, I did a "Live From the Dream" with nice shots of the boat and some of the excursions we did. I hope you have as nice a time as we did. I agree with navybaby about the elevators. It wasn't the elevators, but some people using the elevators who were a drag.

 

Here's a shot from Cozumel on 4/19 to get you excited about the Dream. Enjoy!
