Review summary

Overall it was a great cruise but a lot of people got sick with flu-like symptoms. Use hand sanitizer and wash your hands a lot.

Embarkation

3 out of 5

Embarkation was delayed due to USCG operations so we had to sit in our car for 2 hours once we got to the port but once we got into the terminal it was a smooth process.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Reflections Restaurant

5 out of 5

Service was great, Susilijana, Uan and Ciput were very attentive servers.

Havana Bar

4 out of 5

Great music but it was so loud you couldn’t have a conversation with the person sitting next to you. The drink selection was different from the other bars and very refreshing.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

The trivia and shows were fun and we enjoyed participating.

Vista Casino

5 out of 5

Fun but VERY smoky, the ventilation is not great.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

A cabin with 2 bathrooms was perfect for 3 females. The size was fine, we weren’t in it that much.

Disembarkation

We were off the ship and on the road by 8AM, by far the fastest we’ve ever gotten off.

It’s more like a bath and a half, one is the standard shower, sink and toilet and the other is a sink and shower/bath. It helps when numerous people are trying to get ready at the same time.

I didn't know there was such a thing as a cabin with two bathrooms.

Glad you enjoyed. Good advice about “Washy Washy”, we leave on a cruise in 28 days and sure been thinking about this new virus from China.
