Well worth going. It is not f destination to go sit in the sun. It is very educational. Loved our trip to explore on a bus and the Tropicana was well worth it! by kdallenweber

Ship: Norwegian Sun / Destination: Cuba

nice updated ship. Food was ok. I preferred the larger NCL foods much better. Entertaining is lacking

Norwegian Sun Cruise by shorne11

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Norwegian Sun / Destination: Cuba

The ship was a little smaller than the ones I’ve taken in the past, so there weren’t as many activities or amenities. I read the reviews for this particular cruise/ship and it was a mixed bag. Overall I was pleased.

MSC Cuba cruise: very good port itinerary, disappointing execution. by lutzgelfman

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: MSC Armonia / Destination: Cuba

As mentioned on other sites (Cruise Critic, Trip Advisor, etc.), nobody seems to be taking this cruise for a "grand cruise experience"- let's be real- It's the itinerary. In that regard, it measures up. And let's be honest, with these ports of call, especially if you're travelling with friends, even a mediocre cruise experience can still be a good , memorable adventure.

Not so much by wilsonb333

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Sun / Destination: Cuba

I normally don't complain so much believe it or not. This ship and the cruise in general were a disappointment to say the least. Late arrival at Key West. Small ship with minimal amenities. Noises outside our stateroom. Lack of decent air conditioning in the main spaces (the stateroom air conditioner was great). I am happy to say I've now been to Cuba but would not return. I would not sail on the NCL Sun again to any port.

Not Great by meverett

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Majesty of the Seas / Destination: Cuba

Beds are ROCK Hard so I woke up in pain after four hours each day. Plumbing backed into bathroom. Terrible room location at the bottom of the ship. When i complained Royal Carribbean did nothing. Cheap cruises booked me in a terrible room location for a small amount if money. Wont use them again.

Not the best value by agpoobah

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Majesty of the Seas / Destination: Cuba

For the cost of the vacation. I expected higher quality of the cabin, and better organization. I will think twice about cruises for future vacations.

I can say I did Cuba. Overall the cruise served it's purpose of rest and relaxation. There could be more activities that appeal to all age groups

Great cruise with MSC by DariaL

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: MSC Armonia / Destination: Cuba

In overall I'm very happy about my cruise. Price was very good and I revived great service. Ship was clean, food delicious and plenty of things to do on board. However there was few things I didn't like: A lot of activities like "free hairdresser consultation" are just about selling you stuff. It was really annoying. I was very unhappy about my excursion to Xcaret Eco park, in your offer you say it takes about 45 minutes to get there when in fact it was almost 2 hours. I didn't have enough time to enjoy. If I know before that it will take so long to get there I would chose different excursion. Shows could be better. More interaction with guests. Despite of this 3 points above I would take this cruise again.

Ready To Go Again by lynnc1016585

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Norwegian Sun / Destination: Cuba

I really do enjoy Cuba. I was already planning another trip before getting off the ship from this one. Going solo was an experience in itself. I love photography, so this was perfect for me.

Very nice by pledger

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Cuba

Before you leave your ship be sure you have transport information. You may miss your flight. I was able to visit the Martin Luther King and Malcolm X monument. I do not think they are part of any excursion. I heard about but did not visit a monument to President Lincoln. The US dollar was worth less than the Cuban dollar, yet many merchants asked for the US dollar. I enjoyed my cruise. I would go again on Norwegian. I would have rather arrived at about 10AM and left by 2PM the next day. Not everyone could use the 11PM to 7AM time in Havana. Other sites also offer approved excursion. Be selective if you chose not to us the Norwegian ones.

Wonderful Cuba Itinerary by ktseng327

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Empress of the Seas / Destination: Cuba

As a pretty seasoned Royal Caribbean cruiser, this was not the best ship they had to offer. However, since Cuba's ports cannot accommodate a much larger ship, this was one of the few options. Overall crew interfacing was great. They were friendly, hospitable, and professional. Most seemed to poke fun at the fact they worked on the smallest ship, but made the brightest of the opportunity. Ports of call were terrific and I would recommend visiting Havana to anybody.

A Trip to Remember by glrawilson

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Empress of the Seas / Destination: Cuba

This ship is small, quaint and intimate, however, the staff on the ship is exceptionally, pleasant, curteous and they go above and beyond to make sure your cruise experience is a memorable one. This was my first cruise on a Royal Caribbean ship and it will not be my last. The Royal Caribbean personel is an exceptional crew.

We wont ever cruise on this ship again. Might try one of the larger NCL ships one day, but my wife and I both realized how much we love Royal Caribbean!
