Review summary

Cruise was great; enjoyed our vacation - Carnival did a great job designing the Vista.

Embarkation

3 out of 5

a little unorganized line but we made it on the ship and our luggage did too so that's really all that matters; not a fan of the Miami port the people collecting our luggage were loud, rude, they were arguing with each other right out in the open and asked for tips which to me was very unprofessional

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

food was great - LOVED barbecue and serenity deck salad bar great additions to the dining options. Guys Burgers is always a favorite as well. wish the seafood shack had scallops and grilled shrimp

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

loved the sky ride; need a pull up bar on outside workout like on other ships we've been on

Entertainment

4 out of 5

I wish the times of the comedy and stage shows did not interfere with the time we were scheduled to eat dinner; we missed all the stage shows because they were scheduled during our dinner time. Comedy shows were hard to attend to.

Children's Programs

we dont have children

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

waitstaff was great; seems the ship staff was not as friendly as previous cruise staff but overall they were great. Matt was the best cruise director yet.
