Review summary

We enjoyed our week. Very relaxing and entertaining. I highly recommend the Carnival Vista. The fact that there was free Wi-Fi was great since everything was on the app. From booking dinner times to keeping up with all the a activities it was so easy to use.

The food in the main dining room was delicious. We enjoyed the attention of our waiter Camello who remembered our name from the first evening we dined there. He was a special person. The other restaurants were good as well.

Service and Staff

Our waiter, Camello , was amazing. We saw him every night at dinner. He new our names from day 1 and was very professional as well as entertaining. Our room steward was very friendly and did a great job keeping our room clean and stocked with towels. The cruise director, Kyndall Fire, was awesome, friendly and very professional. She kept us informed and did a great job with all the activities.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
My friend and I had requested twin beds but we got a King instead. We just went with it and didn’t complain. The size of the room was very adequate. We loved having the balcony. The bathroom was adequately sized as well. The bed was very comfortable, I should add.

Ship tip

Be prepared to eat a lot! Even though it wasn’t encouraged to save chairs around the pool, get up early if that is important to you. We didn’t and ended up not being able to find seating when we wanted it. There were many chairs with peoples items saving the place but no one sitting there. We didn’t feel comfortable moving the items and taking the seating/lounge chairs so that was frustrating.
