I chose this cruise because of the ports of call and to experience Carnival's newest ship. The ship is beautiful and the balcony cabins roomy and tastefully decorated. The food in the dining room was excellent as was the fare in the specialty restaurants. Not so much on the Lido deck. There were plenty of outdoor activities especially around the pool. I was particularly impressed with the sngers and dancers who offered three beautiful and rousing performances - for those few who could see them This enormous ship carrying 4000 persons has the smallest and most awkwardly designed theater of any cruise ship I've sailed on. No raised seating in back area; moveable chairs that can be crammed inches from the one in front; no tables for beverages. Very difficulot to see over the persons in front of you.

I was impressed with the staff, the cleanliness and decor. The Guest Services desk was particularly helpful. The spa is beautiful. Enjoyed the cruise and would certainly sail on the Vista again.
