Review summary

This was the coziest and most comfortable ship I've been on in a while. We usually go on the huge mega ships, so this was a nice change of pace. Everyone on the ship (staff and guests alike) was super friendly and excited to be on Norwegian Sky's first sailing to Cuba. Our ship was able to dock IN Havana (no tender), and the process of going in and out was easy. We had a simple embarkation / de-embark process. The food, service, and staff were top notch. As it was a smaller ship, there weren't any crazy lines or back ups at any point. We only went for 4 nights but could have easily stayed 6 - this trip was definitely worth the money!

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Most of the staff was excellent, however, a few bartenders here and there were clearly overwhelmed by the demands of guests. They need MORE bartenders if this is going to be an open bar / all inclusive sailing.

First time staying in an inside cabin - we booked at the last minute and the price was right. It was roomy (enough) and in a great location mid-ship. We got GREAT sleep because once the lights were out, it was pitch black. I would not hesitate to stay in this cabin again .
