Our cruise was a lot of fun. We are already planning our next cruise, hopefully taking a longer cruise next time. The Carnival Valor is a nice ship with very friendly staff.

Pizza was amazing! We mostly ate at the buffet, most days were good food. Loved the Guy's Burgers and Blue Iguana.

Onboard Activities

Pools and hot tubs were relaxing. Loved laying out, plenty of chairs were available.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Bingo was a lot of fun, Queen B is hilarious. The shows were entertaining and a good way to pass the time. Cruise Director Frankie was really good at his job!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room steward, Armando, did an excellent job! Our bathroom light did not work. He made sure someone came to fix it and followed up with us later to make sure it was all fixed and still working. I would request him for next time if we could.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Very clean ship. We did not notice any spills, dirt, mess. Everything was very well cleaned and taken good care of. Buffet area was always spotless, hallways were clean and neat, deck areas were always picked up and straightened chairs.

Cabin / Stateroom

We did the Cenote Hopping with Lunch excursion. It was a fun filled day. It was packed with different swimming spots and zip lining and canoeing. It even included a visit to the Mayan Village and a lunch they prepared for us. A lot packed into one day, but very fun.

Disembarkation

Good way to cruise. Start out a few days, then a few more, then a week. Before you know it you will be living at sea.
