Review summary

We really enjoyed the ship and destinations immensely! There didn't seem to much to purchase in Havana other than the cigars and rum, but onboard everyone was in the gift shop buying tee shirts with Cuba on them! We had to ask the manager to open another checkout line as it was hot and overcrowded and people were getting a bit upset! The open bar concept is great, however I wish the specialty coffees were included as well.

Embarkation

It seemed like the entire ship was checking in at the same time. It was moving, but took over an hour.

Food and Dining

we ate in the French Restaurant and the Steakhouse and they were both excellent! Well worth the extra $$'s. The main restaurant was also very good, with attentive service and the service was wonderful and they know your names..a nice touch!

Ship Quality

The ship was totally refreshed and looks really terrific except for the smoke in the casino. It took us two days to see the whole ship as we were busy!

Cabin / Stateroom

We had a quad cabin, but we were two. We had plenty of space but it only was a four night cruise, so didn't have that much to bring.

Ship tip

eat in the steak house...

Ports of call

Key West, Florida

It was very hot and humid, we were docked at the Navy pier which cut our time short in the port. We just walked around as we've been there before and went back to cool off.

I wish we had been able to enjoy the night life too, but after being out in the sun all day on two tours, we were too tired to go out again, through immigration, etc.
