Review summary

My husband and I take at least one Carnival cruise a year.  The Vista is a beautiful ship.  We had a great time!  The Cruise Director, Matt was the best we have ever had. He was energetic, friendly, engaging, and a lot of fun!!  I think the only thing I noticed that I did not care for compared to previous ships is there did not seem to be as many wait staff taking beverage orders around the pool area.  My husband and I are not big drinkers but I do enjoy having an "umbrella" drink by the pool. In the past some one was always walking around with a tray holding the drink of the day.  I saw this on the first day of the cruise  and that was the last time.

We have already booked our next cruise we enjoyed ourselves that much.

The wait staff has been reduced on all of there ships in the past year. I've been on the Dream, Triumph and the Conquest in the last year and a half and had to go to the bar to bet drinks on all of those ships. It's really a sad thing.

Thanks for the review.  Sounds like we will enjoy our November sailing on the Vista.
