We have recently returned from the 2nd cruise out for Carnival Vista as a party of 6 family members. I will try to cover all aspects whether we thought good or not from the start.

We stayed 3 nights in Barcelona before embarking the ship and was really excited about getting onto a brand new ship after travelling on other lines over the last 11 years. This was our first experience of Carnival and was really looking forward to it. If I am honest, we may have over rated our expectations, as this ship was VERY American, more so than the other American ships we have travelled on before.

The ship definitely had the WOW factor from the moment we stepped on board. We were really impressed with the SkyRide, the Go Ape style climbing area, Slides, Water works, Golf, Bowling alley, Serenity area and the other parts of the open decks of the ship. The Havana deck was lovely, and although could not be used during the day unless you were in a Havana suite could be used by all guests after 5 pm.
