Carnival Vista Cruise Reviews

Have been on this ship prior to pandemic and it was wonderful. Booked at last minute and was excited that we could once again sail on this great ship. Surprise, Surprise!!! Was aware that ship was having some so called minor issues with propulsion but was not ready for actual experience. We left Galveston ahead of Carnival Breeze but suddenly, the Breeze was far ahead of us and knew ...

I chose this particular cruise and cruise line for the Montego Bay and Grand Cayman itinerary. Only after getting on board were we notified that one of the engines was not working and the Grand Cayman port was completely canceled. And the time in Montego Bay and Cozumel were cut in half. We were given a $50 cruise credit to make up for it. What an insult after spending $2,000 on the cruise ...

This is our 7th Cruise.... all of our cruises have been with Carnival except for one.... that I will not name.... but let's just say we will never stray from Carnival again. We had a great time on this Cruise....really enjoyed the ship, staff, and all of the activities......there is always something to do. This is the first time we stayed in a balcony room and we loved it! -- it was amazing going ...

Just got off the Carnival Vista, 7-day cruise from Galveston to Roatan, Belize, and Cozumel. We had a good time, as always, but there were a few things that bugged/perplexed me. First, the good stuff: We didn’t have to wear a mask anywhere during the entire 7 days! Hallelujah! Kendall Fyre is a super Cruise Director. She has the energy of 10 people. There are plenty of things to ...

This was my 5th cruise with Carnival. I have always had the best time and best service with Carnival. This time the service was not up to par. I do understand the staffing issues due to "covid" but the main issue was the waitstaffs attitude. Only a handful were nice. Our room staff was outstanding and there was one particular bar staff that worked in the main atrium with blond hair. She was ...

1. 3 ½ hour embarkation – standing on your feet in the sun in long line with bags 2. No food onboard upon embarkation 3. No instructions for muster 4. Safety briefing provided while guests are mustering - hence only half of the passengers get to hear them 5. Standing in line for 33 minutes to get 2 spoons of food 6. Food Manager Vikas Beri is Missing in Action 7. Location of ...

We sailed on Carnival Vista on April 30, 2022. We chose this cruise because we live in Texas and can drive to the Galveston pier. Our cabin was a grand suite which is their largest suite. It's about the size of 2 standard balcony cabins. Not even close to other cruise lines' upper level suites, but didn't cost as much either. The decor was minimally OK. The sofa "table" was quite small and ...

The short version: A great cruise with wonderful food, and exciting excursions. Try the “3 Specialty Restaurants for $35” pass! The Maya Island excursion on Roatan was relaxing and the rehab animals were amazing. The Rendezvous Quay Excursion in Belize is Great! Friday, April 22 - We decided that instead of paying for parking, we would stay at a park-and-cruise hotel in Galveston. This turned ...

I took my family to Carnival 7-night Western Caribbean cruise between 04/09 and 04/16 on Carnival Vista departing from Galveston, TX. I love cruise and have cruised with other cruise lines before, such as Royal Caribbean, Princess and Celebrity. Since I have small kids now, I decided to take Carnival this time because it defines itself as a “fun” ship with lots of kids friendly amenities and ...

Ship condition: We believe it was in great shape overall. We did notice in a couple of places the floors were soft, mostly on the lower floors. The guest services desk was always crazy long line and slow. They were nice and made us happy for the one issue we went there for. I think part of the problem is their location. It is so loud. Food: Buffet - Good variety. Not enough vegetable ...
