Review summary

Just got off yesterday. This was cruise #16 for me and it was fabulous. We splurged on a Havana Cabana suite and I don’t think I will be able to cruise again without one 😂 The Havana pool and bar area was nice but our massive cabana / balcony area was where I spent so much of my time. Definitely going to look into doing another one next year. Because of the Havana experience, we never experienced the madness of the lido deck or buffet. They serve breakfast on deck 5 in the Ocean plaza and very few people were there. We had early dining for dinner and had amazing service every night. The hours for the Sky Ride were very limited and the wait was 90 minutes when it was open so we never got to ride it. Bummed about that for sure! Chris, the Flying Scotsman was a great CD and usually the CD has no impact on my cruise. Very authentic and it comes across in everything he does. We are sailing on the Vista again in February with our kids and looking forward to it!

The music at night was never an issue for us.

I'm concerned about the sound of the live music in the Havana bar at night. Could you hear it in your room?

So The Flying Scotsman has been moved from the Dream to the Vista? That is great! We had him as our CD last November when sailed out of New Orleans.
