Carnival Vista

7 Night Western Caribbean (Galveston Roundtrip)

Review summary

Carnival Vista is a nice ship but the public areas, especially the main lobby area on deck 3 with the video column is very plain. It seems that they were just trying to save some money by getting rid of the glass elevators. For only being a couple of years old, the ship seems pretty worn...rusting steel, dirty carpets, etc.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth if you use Carnival transportation. Get to bypass all the lines.

The ship is constantly being cleaned and there is a real effort made to insure that the facilities are kept clean, however the ship was in need of carpet cleaning, etc.

Belize City, Belize

Ship area was extremely crowded and dumpy. The shuttle boats used were absolutely packed and not especially safe. Did not do an excursion.
Thumbs Up

Mahogany Bay, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
Mahogany Bay is a beautiful port area. The main city of Roatan is a dump. Good snorkeling excursion from West End

Best Ship So Far.

We spent a week on the Vista a beautiful ship, the only draw back was the buffet not all bad, but some foods was not as good for lunch. Breakfast was always good the Seafood Cafe was great, our cabin steward Z was great took care of us like family.
