Review summary

Same Great service I've come to expect from Carnival. My family and I had a wonderful time as usual. The only thing I would change about this cruise was that there wasn't much PG comedy venues. They were always around dinner time. My family likes to eat around 5:30 or 6:00pm. Please add a PG 8:30 comedy show every night.

Embarkation

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Food was excellent with lots of variety as usual.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

I did the Skyride, miniature golf, fitness center, track, bean bag toss, bowling, and dance party on lifo deck.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

All the shows I went to were good and they would have been excellent if they would only let people who can sing, sing. This poor Blond girl was trying her hardest to belt out some tunes which she really couldn't. Well I'll give her an "A" for effort. Cruise director Matt was fantastic. I really went to the shows to here his jokes and the audience interaction.

Children's Programs

I don't have little ones so I have no idea.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Edris was an excellent waiter and he should have been the head waiter.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

The layout was a little better than the glory but not too different. I felt it was easier to avoid the smoke filled casino. The Vista just felt like it had a better flow.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Like any other balcony cabin. No bells and whistles, just right for what we need.

Ship tip

Breakfast lines can be long. Don't stop at the first food station in the Market place on Lido deck. Keep going to the back for the second station. Don't forget that you can go to the dining room for breakfast as well. Download the Hub app before you leave your port. You'll have all the show times, restaurant, photos and everything you need in the palm of your hand.
