Review summary

This was our least favorite ship. Our room was disgusting on arrival and required the supervisors to be called. They blew us off until the next day saying it was late and tomorrow they would clean it. Luckily, my husband cleaned and sprayed our room so I could stand to stay in it bc of the sewage odor that they even acknowledged. The breakfast room service was horrible. I even poured cereal out of my coffee pitcher one morning and room service would bring incorrect orders. Staff was not as friendly as usual. Carnival disappointed on the Vista. Oh, and if you don't smoke you still get to inhale smoke in the shop areas. And if you want to avoid the casino and smoke on the 4th floor to get to shops or restaurants you must go up a level then back down. Just a bad floor plan unless you enjoy smelling like smoke.

Ship Quality

The layout is horrible on this ship, especially for nonsmokers. Main areas outside the casino smelled of smoke. Restaurants were in areas that were tucked away and hard to find. We were on the 6th floor and there were areas in the hall that were soft and felt as though you would fall through.

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5

Cabin had to be cleaned twice daily bc of a terrible odor in room first day. Odor remained until about day 3.
