Food was just ok. Found a roach in my oatmeal.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Kids were board. Comedy was good, activities were based on spending money. VERY MISLEADING

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Great DJ and musicians.. dancers were boring.

Children's Programs

Vista was one of my favorite ships. I hate to hear how it has deteriorated in the past 6 years.

Doesn’t sound like you had fun if disembark was the highlight.

4 & 5 stars except for children programs? Not sure how that rates disembarkation as being the highlight of the cruise.

Anything over four stars is about the best you can expect currently with Cruises.
