Review summary

I would recommend this ship to anyone! We had a really great time and loved the theme on the ship. We especially loved having an adult only pool. Last cruise on ship magic didn't have that.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

This was our first cruise on the Valor ship. Our first cruise was on the Magic. I have to admit that I liked the Valor ship better. It had an adult only pool and 2 adult only jacuzzis on the ship. Our waiter Glory, and his two helpers were SO GREAT! The best we have had so far. The service was wonderful all around. The ONLY complaint I have, is the Mustar station meeting. We had to squish together on a deck in rows of 5. A passenger by us passed out from heat. I wish there was a better way to have that meeting. Other than that, we had ZERO complaints about our cruise.

Service and Staff

Glory and his 2 helpers were fantastic! I'd book another cruise just to have them as our wait staff. They were so friendly, very attentive, and got us in and out quickly.
