Valor is my least favorite so far. I only have the Magic to compare it to, but we’re cruising the Vista in 2019. It wasn’t bad... just not as nice as the Magic. I wasn’t crazy about the decor, which looked really old fashioned to me.

If you've never cruised before then you won't even know what we are talking about. But if you have other ships to compare Valor to then you'll know there is a difference.

Valor is my least favorite as well. Had a blast and all but compared to the other ships we've been on. This is our least favorite.

What itinerary? What were the issues? We were just on in September and had a great time. Service was exceptional, easily one the most prideful decorated ships.

My hubby and I really enjoyed our cruise on the Valor, to each his own. We had great service and our food was great. 👍

Really? I love the Valor! Going on it a couple more times before it leaves Galveston. Service just depends on the pick of who you get. Ship is nicely decorated and in good shape.

Valor was our worst experience too. Older ship and the service was terrible compared to the others I’ve been on. Cruise director is the only thing good going for it.

Ok Caribbean Cruise

i was very please with the crew staff however i was so displeased with the actual cruise ship. the ship is in desperate need of an upgrade.
