Review summary

Good cruise, a little confusing with trying to get to the dining rooms. Have to go up and over and then down, still not sure from what deck. Could not go to the Cubana pool, for special guests only.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
went to pool early before it filled up with people, enjoyed the spa and fitness. Did the skyride and that was the best.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Shows were Poor, the comedians were Great and the DJ as well

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Service was Great from everyone on board

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
Was Very disappointed that there was not a deck under the lifeboats where you could sit outside on lounge chairs and listen to the water and have quiet time. The only deck was high up and plexiglass all around. I did not feel like I was on a ship. Cleanliness was excellent.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Beds and covers were wonderful, cleanliness was excellent and cabin was conveniently located. Had trouble with the tv, had to keep turning off and on to finally work . They use to have the games on tv from the night before but not anymore.

Ship tip

Expect crowded pools on sea day, and do not expect much from the buffet, and if you are looking for that deck to listen to the sound of the water, it is not there

Hey we were in the front of the ship 8 cabins from the secret location on deck 10. When going to breakfast or supper we had to call a cab to get from our cabin to the rear elevators. It was so far it looked like a black hole when looking down the hallway. Then after going to deck 3 to the MDR we were then taken on a hike to the rear of the ship and aft windows. Talk about traveling.

Appreciate your feedback. You have to book a Havana cabin to use the Havana pool. Glad you somewhat enjoyed your cruise!
