Review summary

We really liked the cruise director. Three of the four comedians were good. One was terrible!! Food not very good and we are not foodies. Overall we did have a good cruise but will not be cruising on carnival again anytime soon.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
We had faster to fun. It was useless. We paid for it. People who didn’t have it checked in long before us.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
3 of the 4 comedians were good; two were excellent. Nightly shows were terrible. Performers were terrible singers. Boat band was also awful. Violin players were very good.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Not friends. Room steward was nice but room was not cleaned well. Staff not very friendly or welcoming.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
Ship needs a lot of cleaning and painting. Common areas like the lido marketplace was always a mess…dirty tables from morning to night. Sometimes we had to wait for someone to clean the table just to be able to sit down. Dishes and food always left on table. While sitting there eating, noticed dirty walls in marketplace also.

Cabin / Stateroom

Odd comments about being dirty and needing paint, the Vista just got of dry dock early February.
