Carnival Valor Cruise Reviews

We took this cruise for a quick get away. I have been cruising Carnival for years. This is an older ship but that does not bother me. Any day at sea is better than being home. I had 2 major issues on this cruise. 1st issue my linen on my bed was dirty. There were 6 layers of mattress pads sheets and a topper. I slept hard the first night and pulled my sheets off of the bed and that is when I ...

Because of the date. The fact it was leaving New Orleans. Price, Itinerary. Then come to find out it was also Mardi Gras, woohoo!!! The staff was friendly. Our cabin steward Johnni, was awesome. Val our cocktail waitress at The Red Frog Pub was the Best. We had a great waiter in the Main dining room who was very entertaining and personable,,, I wish I could remember his full name,,, began with ...

This was mine and my fiance's first ever cruise for the both of us. We really enjoyed the comedy shows, especially the big one the last night of sailing. The 'how to make towel animals' seminar was a fun little expo (special recognition to the gentleman who ran that event, he was really upbeat, cheerful, and funny). The dining experiences were really good and we loved our waiter(s), they were both ...

The only reason I am giving this 2 stars is because we had an Amazon cabin steward, the bar tenders at the Red Frog on the Lido Deck were friendly, and the manat the Java station knew my husbands name. The food in the dining room was good, and so was guys burgers. The food on the buffet was horrible and it was yhe same every night. The staff was rude and if you asked them where something was they ...

This was my first, and possibly last, cruise. The Good: 1) Excellent staff. Friendly, helpful and patient at all times. Even at 3am when I couldn't sleep that one night and wandering to the deck, I was greeted with a friendly smile and "Good Morning". 2) WAY comfortable beds. Except for one night, slept very well, even in 20-foot seas. The BAD: (brace yourself) 1) Food was pig ...

We booked this cruise for our anniversary 2 years prior & were SO excited. This is my 8th cruise and my husband’s 1st. It was underwhelming to say the least. The decor & design was tacky in the public rooms and the staterooms. The service was SO poor (besides in the atrium bar & dining room). The lido deck was superrrr tiny. The bartenders (especially on the lido deck) treated us like we were a ...

Went on this cruise line with my boyfriend and his family. PROS: -Staff on the ship was very friendly and they provided a good quality service. -Room service and housekeeping was great! Our stateroom was nice and cozy. -Guy’s Burger Joint provides tasty hamburgers and fries. -The lobster rolls were also pretty good. -We enjoyed most of the drinks at the pub and ...

In an attempt to boost margins, they have cut out quite a few things and many things are out of order. Notables: • 3 Ice Cream Machines where out of order simultaneously • Guys Burgers no longer seems to use the hand cut fries (3rd cruise in a row, without them • Most of the burgers have sat out so long or are charred, you can only eat the "middle" (get two or three and throw the rest ...

First & last cruise. Ship needs a deep clean & repairs in lots of areas. Horrible sewage smell! Extremely crowded to the point you could not enjoy yourself. Tried the hot tub but always full, even the “adult” only ones (kids everywhere). The pools are sitting pools not swimming & again seemed to always be packed. Food is made of very poor quality ingredients (that was not crawfish on the pasta or ...

Carnival Valor was a little disappointing. I had a better time on the Elation and that ship is tiny compared to the Valor. Food in the buffet and dining room was horrible. Burgers, burritos and the Wok was good. Entertainment was ok but needs work. Just not impressed. Love and marriage show was horrible. That’s usually our favorite show of the cruise. Movies were good. Lido entertainment could ...
