Best Carnival cruise yet--info on ADA

This was our tenth Carnival cruise. We always take the grandmas who are in 80's and 90's. When I booked the Vista, I thought I was getting an ADA room for grandma in wheelchair. I did not realize that the Vista has different 'tiers' of ADA rooms. (I don't think the other ships have these tiers of ADA but I could be wrong). Long story short, grandma was in a room with a step into bathroom and ...

We really wanted to try the newest ship Carnival had to offer, and were pretty excited about it. I spent 3 days reading the hundreds of reviews on here, a month before we left, so I was prepared, and let me just verify that the running theme in the reviews are pretty accurate! This was a family vacation for me and my husband and our 3 kids, my parents and my brother. We hadn't vacationed ...

My family and I (all 10 of us) boarded the Vista on Nov. 4th for a seven day cruise. I was anxious to see Carnivals new ship after reading some of the reviews I was not sure what to expect. I must say I did not find anything really to complain about like so many of the reviews I had read prior to boarding the ship. I found the ship to be very clean, comfortable and exciting. The staff were ...

We chose the Vista because she was new to Galveston and we were ship hopping to the Liberty of the Seas the following week. The cruise director, Chris Williams, was amazing and truly kept the week very upbeat, entertaining, and full of activities to enjoy. He is the up and coming John Heald! We noticed that Carnival has improved their dinner menus, but were surprised at how many cruisers did not ...

We were celebrating my daughter's 10th wedding anniversary with a large group of family and friends. She chose the ship. We have sailed Carnival in the past, happily. Embarking at Galveston was a mess. Traffic is poorly managed. We had to finally leave the line on a side street near a crosswalk in front of the Terminal to unload because we had moved little in a half-hour and needed to ...

The waitstaff and stateroom stewards were absolutely amazing. They always went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that we had the best vacation ever! Our rooms were always clean and tidy and Albert was so friendly and welcoming. Zoran, our lead server was a hoot! He kept us entertained and recommended certain things for us to try. We were never disappointed. We chose Carnival because we ...

We haven't sailed with Carnival in 7 years, so when I saw Vista was homeporting in Galveston, I booked a 7-night to Cozumel, Belize and Honduras. A balcony for my husband and I, and an interior for our daughter when she decided to cruise with us. First of all, let me just say we had a fantastic time. It is a beautiful ship. We're locals, so no need to explore the island before ...

We wanted to check out the new ship in Galveston Texas. We loved the Grand Caymans and Cozumel but stayed on the ship in Jamaica. We had an ocean view room on deck one. It was very convenient to the rear elevators. The change we did not like was having to register for what time you wanted to eat although we had our time dining. You had to stop what you were doing and go stand in a line to get a ...

We were initially excited to try out this new ship. Overall, we had a great time with our family. This is cruise #3 for us and all 3 cruises have been with Carnival. We have been on the Imagination and Glory prior to this cruise. Our cruise on the Glory was far better than this cruise. =============================================================== The Good: Dining experience was ...
