January 2020 - 7 Night Western Caribbean (Galveston Roundtrip) Cruise on Carnival Vista
February 2019 - 7 Night Western Caribbean (Galveston Roundtrip) Cruise on Carnival Vista
This was my second time on the Vista and we had another amazing time. It was a cruise for my whole family: our 6 kids, their spouses, and our two grandchildren. We stayed in a Family Harbor cabin and really enjoyed the Family Harbor lounge. Our only complaint is that we wished it was open past 9:00pm because we were often wanting to play games together and hang out there after the evening show. The service was always great and we were well taken care of. The house band playing in the Ocean Plaza was amazing, as was Matt the cruise director.
September 2018 - 8 Night Eastern Caribbean (Miami Roundtrip) Cruise on Carnival Vista
Just got off yesterday. This was cruise #16 for me and it was fabulous. We splurged on a Havana Cabana suite and I don’t think I will be able to cruise again without one 😂 The Havana pool and bar area was nice but our massive cabana / balcony area was where I spent so much of my time. Definitely going to look into doing another one next year.
Because of the Havana experience, we never experienced the madness of the lido deck or buffet. They serve breakfast on deck 5 in the Ocean plaza and very few people were there.
We had early dining for dinner and had amazing service every night.
The hours for the Sky Ride were very limited and the wait was 90 minutes when it was open so we never got to ride it. Bummed about that for sure!
Chris, the Flying Scotsman was a great CD and usually the CD has no impact on my cruise. Very authentic and it comes across in everything he does.
We are sailing on the Vista again in February with our kids and looking forward to it!
