Review summary

This is the second time we have cruised with the Sky. This time to Cuba and the private island. Even though this ship is one of the older ships in the fleet, it is still in descent shape as far as cleanliness. The employees are constantly cleaning the carpets or sweeping of passenger messes. Our steward Christian was super attentive and soooo nice. He kept our room clean and stocked. We unfortunately had an ac leak that was just in the inside and outside of our room. It wasn't a big deal as it didn't effect our trip. They did have a blower on the carpet in our room when we weren't there to keep it dry. My favorite part is the private island which unfortunately we were not able to do this time around due to weather. We were in the tender line when the ship staff decided it was no longer safe as the seas were reaching 10ft. Bummer but what can you do when it's June and storm season. They did add some activities to the agenda for the day at sea. The cruise director was mediocre compared to when we went two years ago and the entertainment staff only had a couple people that were actually fun...Ash was funny and kept the crowd going at events. We like this cruise because like the bigger ships, it isn't over ran with kids. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles for children which is fine by us as we have kids so it's nice to escape them sometimes. (❤️ them but we all need a break!) Food this time didn't seem as good as the same cruise 2 years ago on the Sky. It didn't seem as good as before. The NY strip was good and we had that a couple times. I do recommend the Ultimate Havana tour. It was nice. The tour buses were very clean and air conditioned and we stopped at some cool places in Cuba. It beats walking around in the heat which btw isn't much different than Florida. Seeing the older vehicles was a highlight for me. Cuba is like stepping back in time. The buildings are tattered and worn and they need a lot of fixing but there is so much beauty in seeing everything the way it is. The Cuban people were friendly and most speak English or enough English to understand. Overall the trip was good. My husband and I had a great getaway. I will always recommend Norweigan for cruising!
