Review summary

This was my first cruise and I was celebrating my 7yr anniversary with my husband. They gave us a lot of special gifts and even sang to us at dinner. They really went out of their way to make it special for us.

Cabin / Stateroom

It was a little crammed with a family of 4 but was okay at the same time because we were only in the room to sleep at night. I would get a balcony room next time for extra space.

Ship tip

Don’t not over pack if you are staying in a interior room too small for a lot of bags.

Happy anniversary! We will be on the Valor in June for our 29th anniversary. Did you call ahead and ask them to do something special or did you just make note of it when you booked? Thanks!

Glad you had such a great time. The Valor is a great ship. We were on her last June for our first cruise. We had a blast.
