Review summary

We were spoiled on the Horizon as the hub app has more features on newer ships. Also wish they had the smart elevator system like the Horizon. This was a really fun getaway for us and our group of friends and would be willing to sail on the Valor again in the future.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Fastest we ever got on the ship!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Guy’s Burgers and Blue Iguana Cantina were awesome as always. Main dining room wasn’t great but not too bad.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Entertainment

5 out of 5

The two shows were Studio VIP(70’s theme), and America Rocks. Both were really good! Caught one of the comedians and he wasn’t that great. The band Deep Blue Soul performed one the Red Frog Pub and were very good!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All the staff we encountered were very friendly.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

The Valor is an older ship but overall was kept clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Perfect location being steps from the lido deck pool and no problem with noise.

Ship tip

Wake up early in debarkation day to get your alcohol purchases. On sailings of 5 days or less you have to pick up your alcohol in the dance club beginning at 6am instead of them delivering it to your cabin the night before.
