It's probably easier to list the pro's and cons of this Carnival cruise.... Pro: -Embarkation onto the ship was absolutely fine/seamless. -Lovely staterooms, nice and spacious (had a balcony room) -Lots of things to do, especially for children and teens -Food varied and to a good standard Cons: VERY rocky on what seemed to be calm sea Very busy in communal areas (seems more ...

This is my 3rd Carnival cruise, prior to this we had completed one Caribbean cruise on the Breeze and one med cruise on the Sunshine. I have also cruised on the Disney Magic in the Med. I have to say I was very disappointed in this cruise. It has been 2 years since I took my last CCL cruise and I feel that cutbacks in terms of staffing and food have materialised. The ...

Since this was our third cruise on Carnival, the overall layout and the "Fun Ship" features of previous ships were familiar on the Vista, even though it of course had new elements as well. However, we didn't find these novelties sufficiently attractive for ourselves (which, of course, is a purely subjective view). The Skyride is unique, but due to extremely long waiting lines due to extremely ...

We embarked the ship at 4pm therefore it was seamless, we were probably the last one's on the ship therefore no line-ups. We travelled with our 12 year old. The downside of the 12-14 year old camp was it was closed all day until 4pm which that didn't work for us since she didn't want to come on excursions with us. After a few days, I contacted the younger camp counsellor and enrolled my ...

Vista is nice, but Carnival is cutting back.

We have been on 8 different Carnival Cruise ships, we booked our trip on the Vista a year in advance and were so excited to be on the 7th sailing of this new vessel. Overall, the ship is beautiful and the activities are plentiful. But as frequent Carnival cruisers, we were disappointed at several aspects of the new ship. First and foremost was the Liquid Lounge. The seating is horrible. Carnival ...

Our second cruise, the first being on P&O Ventura. Liked the ports of call and also trying out a brand new ship sailing from Barcelona. Having had a great one night stay in Barcelona, the first problem however was our pick up from the Hotel to the Ship. Took a taxi in the end - not Carnival's fault. Embarkation not too bad considering number of passengers involved. Cabin was Havana ...

The kids clubs are amazing and our kids loved it. We had fixed time dining at Reflections and service is so SLOW, the waiters try their best but seems untrained, we got our orders mixed up several times Food is somewhere between poor and average - not outstanding Guys burger is a 5. Blue Iguana is a 3+. Lido 3. Reflections 2+. Entertainment is either shows or stand up comedy. We ...

We were so excited to have the opportunity to experience this brand new ship. On the surface - it did not disappoint. The public areas and facilities were impressive. We travelled as a couple (52,46) and felt it was more geared towards families with children. But that said there was plenty for adults to enjoy. The pool areas were fine, as were the sports facilities. Despite a capacity of around ...

Carnival Vista 10 day med cruise - aimed at Casual American Market

10 day cruise on Carnival Vista. Mainly P & O cruisers but thought we would try a different cruise line company (all be it P & O are UK part of Carnival). To summarise Carnival is a lower level class than P & O aimed at Casual American Family market. We expect cruising to be on the luxurious side, being pampered which on the Carnival Vista just did not happen. We make the most of any holiday and ...
