Review summary

Best cruise so far & looking to many many more! We absolutely loved every minute of it and was so sad to see it end.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Got to the terminal, parked, checked bags with porter & on the ship within 45 minutes. Easy peasy!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Buffet-Everyday had something different. Not too bad!! MDR-We were hesitant to try since the last 2 cruises we took the MDR food wasn’t good at all but I have to say, we were pleasantly surprised and loved, loved the food in the MDR!! We got to try food we’ve never had before & it was awesome!! Fahrenheit 555-OMG sooo worth the extra money! We absolutely loved it!! Do yourself a favor and make a reservation!!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We loved the Serenity deck in the evenings. We enjoyed the IMAX theatre and also the movies by the pool. We went a little overboard in the casino and won nothing! Blah! Guess that’s why they call it gambling. 😂

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We absolutely loved our CD Matt! He was super friendly when you saw him out & about. He was always involved and very entertaining. “I said BYE!!” (My husband has been saying this since we left!) Playlist Productions Flick show was amazing!! We enjoyed the violinists.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room steward, “D” was absolutely amazing!

Cabin was very spacious and always clean thanks to our outstanding room steward “D”,

Ship tip

Go in it with the right state of mind. If you go in negative you’re going to have a crappy time. It’s vacation, enjoy!!

Ports of call

Mahogany Bay, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

We walked through the shops, ate at Fat Tuesdays and hung out in the warm water on the beach! My kind of vacay!

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Always enjoy this port! Ate at Pancho’s and did some shopping.

Galveston, Texas

5 out of 5
Always something to do! We visit Nicks on the gulf side every year. Kinda pricey but OMG best meal EVER!!

Belize City, Belize

3 out of 5
Belize to me was very congested. If you have claustrophobic tendencies this may be a rough spot. It was for me. It may be different if you book an excursion, which we didn’t do but wish we had so we could enjoy it more.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Flawless!!

Decora, this is what I found on his social media: (sorry I don’t know how to copy & paste a page here) Good Morning Everyone! So here who is taking over the Carnival Vista when I leave December 7th 2019!! If you’re sailing with either of them you should be VERY excited 🙌🏽🙌🏽 It sounds like he will be on yours but I could be wrong. You might check with Carnival!

Thank you! I just feel that I see so many negative reviews & thoughts, here I am just grateful to be on a cruise. People, it’s not that serious! Stay positive and it will be a positive experience! I mean how many people actually GET to go on a vacation let alone a cruise? Live your best life!
