Sail Date: Oct 2018
Cabin: Large Ocean-View Stateroom

So my wife and I were super excited to get this 11 cruise that included 2 ports in Cuba and had an ADA room available at a decent price. Little did we know it would be the cruise from Hell.

Background - My wife has MS and is in a wheelchair full time. We are 4 star Holland America members and have cruised for the last 30 years.

We had five ports on this cruise: Cozumel, Belize, Cuba (2 ports) and the private island.

Cabin Review

Large Ocean-View Stateroom

Cabin G

The ADA cabin was fine. Noisy since it is in the very front and bottom of ship. Bow Thrusts were very loud. Note: You will get to hear them very early!!

4 small port holes so some light but not really a view.

Bathroom worked fine.

Beds need to be separated if wheelchair is needed next to bed.

We had a private taxi and tour guide. Tour guide was very knowledgeable.
