Carnival Vista Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Our cruise was wonderful. Weather was warm, waters were calm and sky was sunny. The ports were all full of activities and the Cabana area on the ship is the way to go. Book a Cabana room which gives you access to the private pool and jacuzzis.

Passengers were rude. I came home sick. Need mandatory lysol sprayed in cabins.

It was awesome! There’s nothing like cruising and The Carnival Vista is great. Even though the layout is different, it’s still nice to go out on deck 5 and walk to the front of the ship. The Havana Bar and ocean plaza are great too!

We loved our cruise. Everyone went out of their way to be helpful and give great service. The buffet was ok but steakhouse spectacular. MDR was ok not great. The Guys Burgers, Iguana Cafe, Mongolian Grill, and Pizza were better

Beautiful smooth sailing. We had a great time!!!

Besides the poor layout of the ship, this cruise was amazing.

This was our 24th cruise with carnival. We love this ship. The entertainment was great all over the ship. There was one disappointing thing on the ship. The karaoke location in the red frog club is not a good place. There no place for people. It use to be in the ocean plaza area where people can set and enjoy listening to the people doing karaoke. Schwartz is such amazing cruise director. So much energy and he kept people entertained but we hate to see him go.

We had an amazing time with our family and friends. Very accommodating!! Can't wait to do it again!!

Great ship. Some Staff could use some training on not sharing their personal sexual orientation.

The ship is really pretty, clean and most of the staff was great. But the ship ran out of t-shirts, straws for daiquiris, glasses at one of the bars, the Sky Ride camera has been broken for months, comedy club too small (people were turned away every night), too many restaurants you have to pay extra for and their gay employees were way to “in your face”. In today's PC culture it should be a two way street. While on my hard earned vacation I don't care to hear about the staff's sexual preference. If you have to stand up in front of a large group of ladies that are hearing about the Cloud 9 spa services and call yourself a girl while clearly you’re not - just keep it to yourself. The MC at the comedy club wasn’t funny. His agenda was to make it clear he was also gay.

This ship had plenty of seating for all. Previous ships I had sailed on you had to fight for a seat or wait for long times. The lines on this ship was a good length and not unbearable. I would cruise on this ship again.

Was our second time on vista. Wasn’t a fan the first time but this time it was amazing!

Overall it was a great cruise but a lot of people got sick with flu-like symptoms. Use hand sanitizer and wash your hands a lot.

Enjoyed my trip for the most part. Not sure if I’ll book the vista a second time.

Lots of fun and will definitely go on another one in the future!

Would not hesitate to sail on this beautiful ship again. Only thing could make a bit better would be change of itinerary. I have always preferred the Eastern Caribbean to the Western.

The Vista isn't a bad ship but I probably won't ever sell in it or a vista class ship again. The lack of an atrium and weird layout is a big turnoff. It's a weird ship because it is so close to the Dream class ship but so different also. It has alot to offer over the Dream class ships which is nice but not worth it in my opinion. We've sailed the Magic once and Dream twice. Yes we are use to the Dream class and may be somewhat bias but the Vista didn't have enough to offer to make us want to book it again. The Family Harbor rooms and lounge are amazing and a huge plus! The Havana area and rooms look to be a huge plus but didn't personally see anything more than bar area. The waterpark area is awesome! The skyride is pretty cool but you will be waiting on a sea day for awhile. We were concerned about lines and wait times for everything on the ship but were surprised with how little it felt crowded. We loved the cruise and the Vista didn't ruin our cruise by any means but was somewhat disappointing.

Booking our next one this week. We plan on enjoying the Havana club only from now on.

We just finished our 3rd cruise this time on the Vista.I had read review's that said the deck plans were different and confusing so I studied the ship deck plans.We did not have any issues with the deck plans or finding any of the venues.The ship did not feel crowded as some have said and the lines were shorter than our other cruises.We were fortunate enough to get Scwartz as our cruise director. He was CD on the Breeze for our trip then. Love his energy and personality.The ship is very clean and well kept

Lots of fun activities, shore excursions, relaxation time, and delicious food. Friendly staff.
