Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The food was great, we ate at the dining room more often than last time as the buffets tend to get a bit crowded. The times we used the buffets all was good, plenty of food selections & The deserts were fantastic. this time there was a later buffet which was great, we took a few things to the room for a late night snack without having to use room service each time.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
This time we just relaxed more on the ship than prior times. We did check out Serenity which is always nice, the Jacuzzis & pools where not as crowded as anticipated even though the ship was pretty full.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Music is always great. The bands by the casino bar where amazing. We did not check out the clubs this time around just hung out at the casino more and enjoyed that very much.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Amazing service all around. Rodrigo was our steward and was so attentive!! The room was always kept immaculate and fresh ice at all times as we requested. the staff at the restaurants for dinner were also just as amazing. I felt service was a bit slow at breakfast in the dining room , seem more people opted to eat in the dining room for breakfast and lunch than my previous cruises, but still nice and less crowded than trying to find a seat at the buffet.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Always clean! WE have been on this ship several times and I honestly can say it is very clean!
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
We used the same cabin before. It has plenty of room for the two of us and we brough three suitcases.. yes too much but it all fit in the drawers and closet so it was jsut fine. It did have a small fridge, hair dryer, safe etc. just like any other room on the victory. we didn't have to as for anything but ice and our stweard kept it coming at all times. This time though we went to the room a little earlier the first night and could hear the noice from the atrium and the shows. by 11 pm it was done so it was not a problem after that, we now know not to go to bed too early. Best to go see the show enjoy it there instead of in the room!!
Ship tip
Plan ahead, lots to see and do on the ship, bring a highlighter to highlight the times for each activity so you don't miss what you really want to do.
Been to key west a few times. If your first time, we recommend doing a trolly tour. You can hop on and off at many attractions. After the 2nd or third time I do recommend booking an excussion as things really don't get going on key west until late afternoon and all you do is walk around to the same shops over and over! There is no real beach within walking distance to the port
Love Cozumel, been there quite a few times with Carnival. The people are really friendly and so many different things to do! This time we went to MR Sanchos. A bit crowded as there were five ships at port!! Hard to find a table at first, but once we got one it was fine. We paid $55 each person, included everythi escept towels. All drinks, sioft or har including frozen were included. The food was good too. they ahve a swim up bar that was great too!. No snorkling area really, i was able to see just a couple of fish. I believe there is a snorkeling tour that can be dome from there for an additional charge. Oh.. a couple of tip fro Mr Sanchos: call ahead and see if you can reserve a table even if additional cost and make sure it is not close to the bathrooms on the left!! VERY important if you want to breath fresh air!! Also I recommend putting on your bathingsuit prior to getting there as it was so humid it was hard to put on! Other than that, worth every penny and then some.
