We were there for the weather (escaping the Northeast weather) and the ship life. the food was excellent and everything is well done.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
the food is superb. the specialty restaurants served great food. all buffets were interesting and varied greatly from day to day.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
this is a ship known for its food so the activities were not important to us. However, we enjoyed the comedian and trivia. most fellow travelers were polite and interesting.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
we only saw two shows and both involved the comedian.
Children's Programs
i did not see a passenger under 20 on a ship with 1215 passengers.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
the staff in all parts of the ship were friendly and accommodating. we are not demanding travelers, so all services were more than adequate.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
everything was well maintained. our room was cleaned twice a day whether it needed it or not.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
actually in hind sight, the best value on this ship are the oceanview rooms which are the same size but without veranda. my spouse enjoyed the veranda. it was always clean and the bed was extremely comfortable.
Ship tip
the oceanview room is a great value and you may not want a veranda depending where you are sailing
this port is interesting from a historical perspective. the city must have been beautiful over 60 years ago. it is decrepit now. we did do an excursion and our Cuban tour guide did not serve up a lot of propaganda. an interesting stop was the cemetery. A good book to read before you go is Nelson Demille's The Cuban Affair.
