My first point is the most important. EVERYONE is different - so be careful how seriously you take the reviews. You may read bad ones written by people who are not like you at all. I expected everyone to be the same on the boat and to choose the same things as me. They do not. Some get off at every stop, some get off at none. Some get balconies and no drinks package (like us), some go ...

We chose this ship because of the ports of call. We have always been interested in a Mediterranean cruise so when we heard about the Vista being a new ship and spending time in the Med we jumped on it! The ship was beautiful, reminded us a lot of the Breeze which we had been on last summer. Embarkation was easy. We arrived a little before our appointed time but we were ushered right in. The line ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

For our first cruise we chose a brand new ship the Carnival Vista and sailed out of Barcelona to avoid Bay of Biscay to reduce the risk of a big swell. Our party consisted of 7 ages 51, 48, 25, 19, 18, 11 & a baby 14 months. The process of embarking was OK but not ideal all a bit chaotic. The lifts were a real pain lots of people jostling and bumping not really expected on our first cruise. People ...

The ship ticked all the boxes for three generations,we traveled with our Daughter,Son in Law and Grandchildren 8years & 13years. The ship was immaculate, the service & cleaning faultless. We have sailed with other cruise lines and seen the same old production shows with singers and dancers doing sometimes two shows maybe upto four shows in fourteen days,on the Vista we had four modern exciting ...

We booked this cruise through cruise nation. 2 day stay in Barcelona followed by an 8 day western med cruise on Carnival Vista. There were 8 of us travelling together and we did explore Barcelona before the cruise. To be honest, I don't think I would go to Barcelona again as I did not find much to do there apart from the obvious sight seeing. The embarkation process was busy but smooth. The ...

We did a a cruise for our 25th anniversary. We cruise 1-2 times a year, we loved the Vista. It was probably the nicest ship we had been on. We were unable to do much of what the ship offered. We booked one of the rear facing Havanna suites. With private Havanna bar and pool. Very nice, but the room was a bit smaller than I expected. The food is good, the enteratinment was the best I had ever seen ...

As with all reviews a lot comes down to taste. Personally we liked the modern fresh style on the ship. The one sea day was quite crowded but other than that had a great time on deck. Water world was great fun as were the sky ride and ropes. Loads of activities for all ages. The food wasn't great in the main dining. It promised a lot but just didn't deliver. Often bland/dry/overcooked. I know they ...

This was our first cruise so I cannot compare to other cruises. Family of 5 with 8,10 and 17 year old so had 2 cabins on 1st Deck. The rooms were very good and clean and beds were extremely comfortable. The boat overall is excellent for families as lots to do and kids had a great time. Below are comments on the main parts for us: Swimming pools - very small and filled with salt water which ...

In 2011 we sailed on the Carnival Magic on her second cruise. The ship was marvelous, the service was excellent as crew were continually asking if we needed anything (particularly from the bar), the cabin was nothing special but perfectly adequate for the trip, the food choice in the buffet was brilliant covering a huge range of food from many different countries. All in all it was great ...
