Review summary

Been on the viva up to last week. Now bare in mind it was our first cruise so I have no comparison to offer but this is my opinion : Downside : Pool area too little, go kart track too big. Maybe when in USA the go-kart track will be used more but a waste of space in my opinion. Darts, go kart, mini golf and vr rooms all have extra charges. Our room was just by the theatre and a couple of times they had disco and wasn't pleasant. As mentioned from others Syd Norman and other entertainment areas are very small. But for the negative That s it. Positive : Loved the outdoor space, all glass baluster all around. Food was very good everywhere The buffet area upstairs was constantly busy but there are plenty seats (outside too) There are other restaurants (free). Our fevourite is Food hall where you order by tablets and there is a good selection of food from all ethnicity, plus you have the Commodore and Hudson restaurant both are like a refined setting with table cloths, waiting staff etc. In the Hudson we felt very rushed but overall was great. The speciality restaurant are also very good. The Los lobos is amazing. Every single staff member was outstanding I heard people from "the heaven" complaining they have to take 2 different lifts to get off the boat. Some people are too spoilt in my opinion. Overall I d like to do it again (soon if I could) To me it is all thumbs up but as I said I have no other comparison
