Review summary

I have cruised only about 7 times, but this was my least favorite. Small ship and much older so you don't have a lot of the amenities you can find on a larger ship. The comedian and these 2 guys from (I think) NY were great- very entertaining. Everything else was... meh. Our server at dinner, Carlene, was the BEST! She made our trip great. Getting off the ship was a terrible process, so be prepared to hang out and do nothing for the morning you leave.

Ship tip

This is an OLD and SMALL ship. Missing many amenities you will enjoy at other ships. It was REALLY rocky and you feel it because it is smaller, but it is smaller because the big ships can't get into the port in Cuba.

We like the smaller ships for their relaxing experience, some people like doing all the stuff on the bigger ships. We didn’t have any trouble getting on or off the ship.
