Review summary

Just being onboard a beautiful ship, with family, friends & food, stopping at unique ports of call ESPECIALLY CUBA, being entertained by our Waiters at dining, watching the water on the vast ocean made it all an awesome experience!! The entertainment was a low point on this ship but I had lots else going on to override that issue.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Long wait for a wheel chair. Long wait for attendance in the assisted line.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Not sufficient variety for breakfast. The Caribbean has a range of local options for breakfast that were not explored.

Ship tip

The Windjammer is just that...Windy/Chilly....so night time movies on the Windjammer may not be an option

HAVANA, CUBA

The Social Club of Buena Vista should be promoted as an on-shore activity...It was Grrreat!!! And we found out about it by accident. Urban Adventures are great tour operators!!!!!!

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5

For me there was not much to do at Cozumel if you don't need the sea or snorkeling. Maybe a different stop in Mexico would have allowed a more cultural experience.

Disembarkation

Wheel chair assisted passengers have it smooth.....not sure about the other passengers in the long lines. However the management of the luggage was great!
