This was my 8th cruise, 6th on Carnival. We stayed at the Hollywood Beach Marriott the night before. (Nice property I would recommend it booked it through a deal on Traveldeals for $179. per night including a $50. room credit, free parking and free breakfast buffet.)

Boarded the Victory at 1:30 after a very short time in line (20 minutes). The ship is nice NOT beautiful! We sailed on the Triumph last year and it is exactly the same ship as the Victory but the Triumph was nicer.

Overall we had a great cruise but I must say that the food was NOT as good as on previous sailings. Read more
