Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I'm not able to save my comments under individual venues so in lumping them all together. The main dining room food was wonderful. The best I think I've ever had on a carnival cruise. Guys was typical and always enjoyable. The steakhouse had issues the night we ate there. Hopefully, it's improved. The coffee on lido definitely has not improved. I always bring a French press and brew my own. My favorite bar drink is the Blue's Blue Margarita 🍹 my sister loves the Miami Vice 🍹

Loved the piano bar and very much enjoyed Gustavo. We attended the show one evening and very much enjoyed it. We went to the comedian and he was meh.

Service and staff were great!!!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was very clean. I love the layout of the Valor. Prior to this cruise I've only been the dream class ships. I prefer the Valor.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our steward was great and kept our cabin in tip top condition.

Ship tip

Don't book the steakhouse on the first night of the cruise. They did not have their stuff together. Go see the piano bar at least once.

Ports of call

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

5 out of 5
We did an excursion to Chichen Itza. We very much enjoyed it but would've liked to have had more time there. It's a 5 hour round trip and we got back right at 430. It was worth it, though.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
I always enjoy Cozumel. This time we tried Mr Sanchos. It's worth the price.
