Review summary

Really enjoyed this cruise, Discovery 2 is a lovely ship and the crew were excellent.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Mostly seamless, only developmental point was on arrival in Montego Bay, there was about an hour wait for the bus transfer to the ship, it would apear the buses had to make a second journey, so unless you were first off plane you had to wait for return of bus.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I can not fault the food or drink in any way. Buffets were plentiful and fine dining was exactly that.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We used the fitness centre every day to balance out the excess food and drink.

Ports of call

Montego Bay, Jamaica

3 out of 5
Nothing there really and not a very safe place to explore. On the plus side Hard Rock Cafe is close by on the beach and there was a free transfer bus, although a well kept secret.

George Town, Grand Cayman

4 out of 5
Lovely little port with some good shops.

HAVANA, CUBA

5 out of 5
Highlight of the cruise. We totally did our own thing. Hop on hop of bus 10 dollars, 1949 Chevy for a taxi ride, then evening in Cafe Paris with free live Cuban band playing.

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
Not much in Cozumel we took a taxi to Paridise Sands Beach Club for the day, worth a visit.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Generally good process, flight was delayed back from Montego Bay by 5 1/2 hours but handled ok by TUI.
