This was my first cruise and my boyfriend's 4th cruise. We chose the Victory because of the itinerary. We were celebrating my boyfriend's birthday and most of the ports were new for him. The cruise ship is a little dated, but it is very clean!

This was my first time cruising and I truly had a blast. I was super excited to experience cruising and I was not disappointed. Our room was an ocean view with a balcony. It was pretty spacious. The furniture was a little dated. But, again, it was very clean. Our steward did an awesome job of cleaning our room twice a day! I read complaints about the amount of space available on the counter. I thought the space was adequate. There is also a medicine cabinet in the bathroom with ample space.

The food on the cruise was good. If you're looking for 5 star dining options, you will be disappointed. But, from a practical standpoint, I thought the food was fine. We enjoyed lunch on the Lido deck most days. The Caribbean buffet theme was good, in my opinion. We ate dinner in the Atlantic dining room every night, except when we did the Chef's Table. We had the late seating and truly enjoyed the experience. Albert and Ivanka did an excellent job taking care of us. The food was good, as well. My favorite meal was the lobster and shrimp for the Captain's dinner. I have to say that the wine list was more extensive than I anticipated and very good! I was surprised. Overall, I truly have no complaints about the food on the Victory. Actually, the only complaint I do have is about the scrambled eggs. AWFUL. I think they're powdered. I'm not sure. But, please, please do NOT eat them. LOL. They were terrible.
