	Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 18 - 29 Cruise Experience: First cruise Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Oceanview Amazing time!! by A Traveler from Atlanta, Ga Sailing date: Jun 2012 Pros: the service, the ports, the room sizes Cons: the food This was our first cruise and we had a great time! The ship was very nice with lots of options for entertainment and dining. It never felt crowded really, except for our day at sea. Ship Details: Ship Quality Only complaint is that you had to go up to floor 5 and across and then down to floor 3 for dinner...seems like they could have done a better layout so that you didn't have go up and down so much. Dining/Food Stateroom Quality Ship Staff Quality The staff could not have been nicer!!! I'm not sure that you could really find better service. Everyone just made us feel at home for our week aboard! It was our first cruise but we were blown away by the friendliness. Entertainment & Activities The movie options could have been better around the pool area. The dancers were very talented. We didn't go to too many shows though. 0 out of 0 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful? Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 2 - 3 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Oceanview Lovely time by Daniel G. from Hutchinson, KS Sailing date: Jun 2012 Pros: Plenty of time at each port. Cons: Number of young people running around the ship in groups after 11:00 p.m. Great ship. Ship Details: Ship Quality Dining/Food Stateroom Quality We could not indentify any of the towel animals. On prior cruises, items left around the room were used with the towel animals to great comedic effect. Not on this cruise. Ship Staff Quality Would have gotten Excellent except our wait staff at dinner kept forgetting my coffee. Entertainment & Activities Great dance shows and the comedians were entertaining. Though one did actually use Hutchinson, KS, negatively, by name in his act. Incredible coincidence. 0 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful? Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 50 - 65 Cruise Experience: 7+ cruises Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Balcony Disappointing Cruise by Roger S from San Antonio, TX Sailing date: Apr 2012 Pros: The different islands Cons: Too small balconies, food and staff so-so, traveling to decks cumbersome Ship is oldest of any we have travelled on. Getting to lower decks was cumbersome because you had to take an elevator to the 5ifth and walk across the ship to get lower decks. too many kids that were very noisty until two or three every morning. The food was not as good as it used to be and the dining room service was also not as good as it used to be. The rooms seemed smaller. We travel with an electric scooter and there was no room to place it on the balcony as we usually do. we had to pile furniture on the sofa in order to put the scooter in the room. Ship Details: Ship Quality Dining/Food Stateroom Quality Ship Staff Quality There is no bonding with staff as there used to be as staff are just there to do a job and were too busy to pay much attention to what was needed by customers. On the last night we had baked potatoes which came to us cold and with no butter or sour cream. We had to ask for butter and sour cream more than once. Entertainment & Activities The cruise director Felipe, the juggler and the show Vroom were great 0 out of 0 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful? Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 7+ cruises Traveler Type: Family w/older children Stateroom Type: Balcony Great Cruise, Not Great Cabin(s) by Jacqui M from Virginia Sailing date: Mar 2012 Pros: the itinerary Cons: the nightclub being one floor DOWN under the rooms The weather was sunny and warm, the ship clean and functional. I enjoyed the aft balcony, but apparently nobody told us that the night club on the Victory is on the aft end of deck 5, our rooms vibrated every night and it was so loud you couldn't talk or sleep. My 15 year old niece complained and they offered to mover her to a cabin on Deck 1...for the same price (NOT). The food was not spectacular, but it was good. One of our party is a vegetarian and she found enough items on the menu nightly to make her happy. The wait staff was excellent as was Lorna at the Martini Bar on Deck 5. The cabin steward was also excellent, we never wanted for ice, drinks or towels (just a quiet night). Disembarkation was and always seems to be done randomly and is a complete mess. My mother was in a wheelchair, but there was no good access to the elevator. When we asked about getting her down to deck 0 to get off, the crew members were very confused about where we needed to take her. We gave up and did it ourselves, and got off with no further issues. Overall, it was an enjoyable cruise with family. I would not recommend staying near the nightclub if you like to sleep. Ship Details: Ship Quality The photo staff uses the ONLY inside hallway on Deck 5 as their makeshift studio space. This setup makes it almost impossible to walk down the hall during the evening hours. Carnival needs to make a dedicated space for all their photographers instead of impeding the only walkway forward. Dining/Food Stateroom Quality The mattress was hard like a rock...oh well, didn;t use it much due to the noise anyhow.

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 7+ cruises Traveler Type: Family w/young children Stateroom Type: Oceanview Renewd enthusiasm for Carnival by Karen K from New paltz, NY Sailing date: Feb 2012 Pros: cruise director-Felipe Cuoto. I would love to take this cruise again with the exact same crew. Loved it!! I felt I had the best of everything on this sailing. Cons: Didn't sleep enough The staff exceeded my expectations!!!!! Ship Details: Ship Quality Dining/Food Stateroom Quality Ship Staff Quality I thought Adrian in the dining room went above and beyond when he was showing my son tricks. I thought Ozzie went above and beyond because he kept asking us if all was well and would give us what we requested. He also made an extra effort witht he towel animals. I noticed that. I thought Andrei from the bar team went beyond to come to wait on us. I felt like I had my own drink person. Thanks!!! He would remember what i liked and my son also. Dewi, who helped Ozzie, would go out of her way to talk and say hello when he saw us. Entertainment & Activities Those singers and dancers. Wow...they worked hard. Thanks!! 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

Ship Details: Ship Quality It was all great but kind of difficult to get from the front to the back around the kitchen area. We kept having to go up two floors and come back down. Dining/Food Stateroom Quality Ship Staff Quality Agnes was our room stward and she was awesome! She was always so bright and cheery and remember all our names all the time. Incredible. Our waiter was Jerome and his assistant Edwin - both were great! Entertainment & Activities I don't know if you didn't have the Chef's showing on this cruise or I just missed it. One of my favorite events on my past cruises. 0 out of 0 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 7+ cruises Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Inside They are still the FUN SHIP by Paul from Wisconsin from S.E. Wisconsin Sailing date: Jan 2012 Pros: Fantastic route, De-embaekation process much improved Cons: Missed Tater-Tots potatoes until last morning SAVE $$$$ by taking $20 TAXI FROM airport (+ $1per bag) to ship. Find abother cOUPLE TO SHARE THAT $20 TAXI.. Our taxi driver tried to rip us off claiming each couple owed him $20 because we did not know eachother. We argued back and won that rates are fixed by taxi authority. THE ship was in excellent shape and comparable to all the other cruise lines. Ship Details: Ship Quality Dining/Food Food was good, just finding the open buffet lines has ben reduced after prime time. Some of the special shows and buffets have beenscaled back to save moeny and reduce food loss Stateroom Quality Ship Staff Quality They did an awesome job Entertainment & Activities 1 out of 3 people found this review helpful.
