About the Ship....


Long overdue vacation! We decided to take a Carnival Cruise on the Legend. Our last Carnival trip was a disaster to say the least, however, after hearing a lot of rave reviews we decided to give it another shot. Glad we did!

The ship was great, the Legend has a lot of dark hardwood decor. They layout of the ship was very practical, even though there were 2,500 passengers aboard we never felt crowed. There was always a place to sit (even empty lounge chairs by the pool.)

Here's the lowdown:

Activites/Entertainment

3 Swimming Pools (1 for adults only): There were a string of activities to be found at the main pool during the day. Activities included: Alligator wrestling, Fear Factor and Survivor type games. In addition various bands played throughout the day and evening. Thursday the pool was also host to Carnival's infamous Beer & Bathrobe party.

Adult only sun deck

Follies Lounge: Main lounge w/nightly Vegas style entertainment. Dancers, comedians, balancing acts etc. The singers and dancers could use a little bit of polishing, but very entertaining none of the less.

Billie's Piano Bar: Self explanatory. Some nights its great just to chill with a martini, other nights you can join in on a sing alongs.

Sachamo's: Another lounge with a New Orleans feel (as if the name doesn't give you a clue) that features jazz music.

Firebird Lounge: Smaller than the Follies, featured smaller entertainment acts and the majority of their adult only midnight showings. Karaoke was also held here on several nights.

Medusa’s Lair: Dance club, sorry didn’t get a chance to check it out.

Club Merlin Casino: Primarily slots but home to a fair number of card tables.

During the day the lounges were also host to a number of activities such as art auctions, shopping and port talks, various dance classes, meet and greets as well several activities for the children’s and teenage groups.

Dinning/Food

Truffles Dining Room: Main dining room. The food ranged from good to great, there was always a variety on the menu (at minimum a chicken, beef, seafood entree and appetizer every night). There were also "spa" entrees if you can maintain enough self control to eat light on a cruise.

There was also a Supper Club restaurant which cost an additional $30 a head. A couple of our tablemates tried it one night and felt the extra cost was well worth it.

Sushi Bar: Open from about 5:00 to 8:30 every evening.

Pizzeria: Available 24/7

Breakfast and Lunch were available in the dining room or on the Lido deck. You could also find late night buffets of various themes throughout the week on the Lido.

My family and I have been to Cozomel several times. We did parasailing and snork
eling among other excursions. By far the best excursion we had there occurred the last time we visited. We boarded a bus that took us inland to the middle of the island. At a cattle ranch we climbed aboard 4- wheeled ATVs and traveled through the jungle via trails that went through mud and dust. We stopped at several locations that contained ancient Mayan ruins. Although we had never drove ATVs before, we quickly mastered using the gears because there was no clutch to worry about. It was a complete BLAST!!! There were people from 10 to 75 years riding in our group. It was led by a very friendly guide and we were completely safe at all times. I would recommend it to anyone going to Cozomel, especially if you have already done the other "tourist"
stuff and need something different to try.

Have never had a bad Caribbean vacation---cruise's or resorts-love them all..when cruising we enjoy going to ports and finding outdoor restaurants or beaches and having cocktails and catching some rays..there is always something for everyone and the best part is the most beautiful things are free--the beaches and the sunshine...I enjoy helping people search for trips so much that we started small travel agency and pretty much everything we book is to Caribbean, and also modestly priced. Since we are from OH-IO and our winters are pretty much cold and snow everyone that we find vacations for are trying to get away from these cloudy skies and chill factors. So Ohioans like to go to Caribbean...check us out on web www.tennanttravel.net
