Review summary

Awesome time, would go again tomorrow. It is what you make it. Some People really do need to lighten up and learn some manners, that’s why there’s so many crazy youngsters running around. Just my opinion

Embarkation

4 out of 5
While on the inside Galveston has this figured out, waiting on the buses at the port parking was a different story

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food was actually better than some of my past cruises, the Italian restaurant was awesome!!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
The shows we attended were pretty good, adult game night was awesome! (If it’s available on ur cruise don’t miss it) we had some bad weather for the first couple days so the outdoor activities were dampened a bit but it got better. Dodgeball tournament was fun, sky ride was ok.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
One of the comedians was horrible and one was really good, I don’t like that this ship dosent have a “night club” the vista uses the same place as the comedy shows and they leave all the chairs in place so there’s no room to hardly do anything but sit down lol.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Service was amazing, I honestly don’t know how pretty much everyone on the ship can stay happy and try to make you feel welcome as much as they do. My only issue was some of the rude and inconsiderate guest on board that I seen treating the working like straight trash, a lot of people have no patients nor any fn matters and it was ridiculous.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Seen someone cleaning all the time, it is an older ship and it shows in some places but it’s not due to lack of the workers

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was roomy and beds were nice!

Ship tip

The layout on the vista is very strange, not my favorite but it wouldn’t stop me from cruising her again

So sad to hear people are still so rude to the crew. Just breaks my heart! They are such hard working people! Let’s all pledge here to go out of or way to say thanks and share a smile with them. They really deserve our kindness! ❤️

Glad you had a great cruise! We cruise this coming Saturday for my third cruise on Vista, and currently my favorite Carnival ship. To me the layout has a smooth flow but is different than many older ships. Each class, fantasy, conquest, dream, vista, excel, etc.. have their ups and downs, but that’s a great thing about cruising, there a lot of options based on our individual needs and comforts. Cheers to many more great cruises! 🍻🛳🏝

You do know the Vista has been in service since 2016, right? It's hard to consider it an older ship. On the other hand, we sailed the Glory twice this year and it was hard to believe she's 20 years old!
