The Carnival Victory is, when all is said and done, a decent enough ship, the problems it suffers from are basically all derived from the human factor.
The ships layout is pretty standard for this class of vessel and the facilities available are generally good.
PORTS OF CALL The itinerary with a different island each day is, as far as I know, fairly unique and offers a good variety of islands. ST. Thomas offers good shopping, Dominica offers an island with little development, St. Lucia, Barbados, Antigua and St. Kitts all offer well developed tourist infrastructure, with historical and cultural differences enough to make them all worth visiting.
Good balcony size, shower was quite large for a cruise ship, thin walls, good size overall.
