We sailed on the Victory in 2009 before the 2.0 upgrades so probably don't have too much good info. But she was beautiful!

The Victory is a good old girl with nice size cabins and a great crew that do a great job looking after you. It does not have the full 2.0 upgrades but recently added The Alchemy Bar and a new version of the sports bar. The food and entertainment is pretty good and the overall bang for your buck is a great value. If you are the type to look for problems you will probably find a few but I've sailed Victory four times (The short cruises out of Miami work for me) and I love it!

The victory was our first cruise (2012 - prior to 2.0, I believe) and it was a great time. We had a vary port-intensive itinerary so we spent a lot of time off the ship, but the ship was nice and we really enjoyed our time. We spent most of our evenings in the Piano Bar singing along. There wasn't anything that I can think of that stood out as a "bad" thing, other than some of the decor (at the time) felt a little "dated" perhaps.

 

It was nice enough to get us hooked, and I would not hesitate to go back onboard for another journey.

 

Enjoy yourself!

Our family took a cruise on the Victory in January. We were 7 people in 3 cabins ages 13-67. We absolutely loved it. No complaints really. You can read my posted review if you like. I think I covered it all! Enjoy!

No, there is not steakhouse or Guys on Victory. My review: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1723972 has tons of photos of the Victory and describes quite a bit about her. Its a different itinerary then she's on now so you can skip the parts on the ports but there's a lot about the ship there. Happy cruising!

Watch out for the seahorses they bite. In other words be careful going up and down the stairs or your knock your shin on one and they hurt.

Just read your review- awesome!!

 

Last year we did that itinerary on the valor. Amazing trip!!

Haha, Bubbles. I forgot about those darned seahorses. They had the ability to be unpleasant.

We just sailed from June 22-26. If you enjoyed the Valor the Victory will not disappoint you. The sea horses do bit! They especially like the thigh area[emoji8]. The Alchemy Bar was the "it place" for us. They make some very interesting concoctions. We found the food to be very good on this particular cruise.

We are going to be on Victory for the Aug 3 cruise, I think the same itenarary. You woudn't happen to have copies of the Funtimes would you? It's our first Carnival cruise and we are trying to get an idea of what is availible on board.

We did our first (and so far ONLY) B2B on Victory back in 2013. Coz, Key West, nassau, Granbd Turk and HMC.
