My wife and I had a great time on this cruise. It was our third cruise. We have not been on a new ship, and we found Valor to be a great sized, and very clean ship. It had a great crew, and we enjoyed interacting with the entire team. HIGHLY recommend the Chef's Table dinner. This tour and meal really help you understand the enormity of the operation. It will also answer some of the "concerns" about service for the late dinning dinner meals. Aruba was our least favorite port, but still very nice. Curaco was our favorite, and Grand Turk was nice, but very simple, mostly a beach only. Overall, we could tell this was a very good team, they had the right attitude, friendly, and very clean ship. I realize there are newer/bigger ships, but do not sell this ship and these ports short. We really became close with several of the staff that remembered our name after our first meeting. Port was efficient.
