The 110,000-ton Carnival Valor sails year-round from Miami, Florida, doing 7-night Eastern or Western Caribbean cruises. This Conquest Class ship is an excellent option for those that would like to take a fun-filled, affordable vacation.

Carnival Valor emerged from dry dock in March 2016, where she received popular Fun Ship 2.0 features. Guests can enjoy an all-new three-deck adults-only Serenity retreat, as well as Carnival WaterWorks aqua park. Some of the bars and lounges that have been added to the ship include Guy's Burger Joint (serving celebrity chef Guy-Fieri-designed burgers), the BlueIguana Cantina, Alchemy Bar, the EA SPORTS Bar, and the RedFrog Rum Bar.

Among the many dining options available on board Carnival Valor are the main dining rooms (where you can choose between assigned and open dining for dinner), Scarlett's Steakhouse (an upscale, optional specialty restaurant that has a per person cover charge), Rosie's Restaurant (which has a large buffet, including a salad bar, oriental section and deli), a pizzeria, a grille, as well as 24-hour room service.

As far as entertainment venues and things to do go, there are plenty of great options available aboard Carnival Valor. For instance, the three-level Ivanhoe Theatre is where there's a different live show during each evening. Possible performances include comedians, musicians, magicians, acrobats, game shows (often involving the participation of guests that have volunteered) and elaborate Broadway-style production shows. Also on board this ship is a large casino, a full-service spa, fitness center, swimming pools, hot tubs, waterslide, sports deck (that includes a jogging track), many bars and lounges (including One Small Step Dance Club and Bronx Sports Bar) and internet cafe.

There's a fantastic age-based youth program available on Carnival Valor. Camp Carnival is for 2 to 11 year olds, is a supervised program that features a children's pool and lots of fun activities; Circle "C" is for 12 to 14 year olds; Club O2 is for 15 to 17 year olds.
