The Vista has lots of great reviews so don't let a few bad experiences get you down. Spend your time waiting looking at the good things rather than spend it worrying. Go expecting good times!!

I really enjoyed the Vista, about to go for the 3rd time. But I can agree that some things could have been placed better. I always find something good to eat. The shows (entertainment) could definitely use some improvement. I once read a review where someone suggested they google some ideas for shows! 😂 But for many who are new to cruising, they haven’t seen some over and over. But, over and over, if you missed it, you can eventually catch it. Like Flick. I kept missing it and finally caught it.

We sailed Vista in Dec 2017 and we liked it. What we found with the ship though was it lacked pizazz in our opinion. It was clean and well run, but I found entertainment was so-so. Food was okay in the buffet. I think most cruiselines try to encourage passengers to seek the higher-end food at the specialty restaurants more and more.

We celebrated our 31st anniversary last October on the Vista and our experience was wonderful. Great ship, great staff and always found something fun to do. Sorry you had a bad experience. Cruise on, have fun!
