Enjoyed ourselves so much, that we have begun looking for a cruise for next year. The Carnival panoramic sets sail Feb 9 out of Los Angeles (Long Beach) to Puerto Vallarta, Cabo San Lucas, Magellan is what we are looking for.

Service and Staff
5 out of 5
All were very warm and friendly, they really do spoil you.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
After being on Royal caribbean Oasis of the seas, Carnival Vista esthetically is not as polished but we felt that Carnival activities and layout were more inline with our needs.

All met our expectations, except for a noticeable odor of urine coming from the bathroom.
Ship tip
I think next time I will not pay my gratuity in advance to make sure those who really went out of there way to make your cruise experience memorable receive our monetary appreciation.
Tips are shared across the ship. Depending on whether you ate at brunch, speciality restaurants during lunch that are complimentary etc. or in MDR. Trying to tip to only those you think deserve it is unfair to those that serve you that you don’t see.
