Have travel Vista twice before. Was great with 50% capacity. Ninety percent plus was not so great.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
Still have to do the snake lines. Once you get to the check station all goes well.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Steak house was great. If they keep doing it go on First or Second day and you get a free bottle of wine. Also, don't mess around...get the 9 oz filet. Most of the others are on the tough or fatty side. Main Dining Room had tables for two...very close. Staff was over tasked as our ship was 90 percent or more occupied. Staff tried but...too few servers...too many patrons. Lido buffet was great to OK. Bosai was great but again you must pay.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
DJ music at the pool and the evening shows were great.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Would give it five stars but seeing "R" rated comedy is not my thing. Kudos to the Great Movie Hits show and the other singing/dancing show. Both were great...TAKE YOUR EAR PLUGS...they like it loud.
Service and Staff
2 out of 5
All were great until we went to Belize. Was called for a tender and we stood in line for 35 minutes. We were packed in with no where to move...Covid...no one was wearing masks. Again, on debarking in Galveston...hundred's packed in waiting an hour to depart. Worst I have ever experienced.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Vista did great with this one. Design isn't my favorite as no real inside area where you can watch the bow.
Cabin / Stateroom
1 out of 5
Cabin was small but very nice. Steward was good. Cabin has a shower in the toilet area and a separate tub (small) with shower. I liked it. Now the problem...it was rough the first and last day. The waves made you think that the boat was coming apart. It was very, very loud...no way to sleep. I don't recommend this location.
Ship tip
If you are a drinker of alcohol...it is expensive. Beverage package might work for you even though it too is expensive.
