Review summary

Stop in Havana made the cruise worth it. Wish we had longer in port. Otherwise, cruise was fine. Definitely a good time. We enjoyed the specialty restaurants and some shipboard entertainment. Nothing flashy or extravagant about this ship. Just good old fashioned entertainment and simple fun. It'll be as fun as you make it. Ship was in decent shape. Booked ocean view room w/ connecting cabin which was nice. Our room smelled musty but they brought in a fan to clear it up. Shower drain also clogged and they fixed that immediately. This ship doesn't have a helipad which normally doesn't matter unless there is a medical evacuation while at sea (which happened). The pool deck was shut down for three hours on a sea day which can be rough if you like to lay out. We just moved inside with the entertainment to the Outriggers Bar. Rained in Great Stirrup Cay and all excursions were cancelled. We were still able to enjoy the day by playing beach volleyball and hanging out on the water until the lightning chased us off. Still under a lot of construction for upgraded activities on the island.

Thanks, like how instead of moping about the rain you played volleyball. That's a cruisers attitude. Glad you had fun😎
