Review summary

I just returned from my first cruise on July 8, 2016. All my friends had hyped me up about the Carnival Valor. I must say I was totally impressed. Housecleaning had our room in top condition throughout the trip. My favorite part of each day was going to dinner in the Washington dining room. My sister and I sat at table 542 on the upper level at 8:15. The gentlemen that waited on us were friendly and made us feel like they had known us forever. They were very professional, attentive and yet genuinely made us feel special. We laughed and talked and even danced at times. I feel so fortunate to have been at their section and would hope to be with them again during my next cruise. Never enjoyed an elegant dinner each night as much as I did this trip. Thanks so much guys for everything. I miss you already! 

Sincerely, Martha Jill Mize and Susan Carroll

This cruise we'll go Gold. This will be our 2nd time on the Valor. The Valor holds a special place in my heart. Hubby and I went with a group from church 8 years ago and renewed our wedding vows on the Valor.

I actually enjoyed the reviews thank you and in my opinion this app is called "ship mate" all about reviews and good times. Rant over post on! 78 more days! Cruise baby "Valor"

Great review thanks. Just a reminder this is not a carnival website. Great to thank staff but carnival may or may not see your review. It is important you answer survey when you get it. That's when your voice is heard. Great review thanks

My husband and I were on the same cruise. Ship was spotless, crew extremely helpful and friendly. The food was much better than we have had on some other Carnival ships. Embarkation and debarkation went smoothly and kudos to Crissy the CD for doing a jam up job
