Sail Date: Nov 2018

We chose this cruise to spend time with group of friends and experience Cuba. Our group of 10 were accommodated at all restaurants with group seating ( twice with private dining rooms!) I was pleased to see a wide variety of gluten free foods available! The service level matched that of Silver Sea...perhaps even better in several venues.

Aaron Syfert was one of the best cruise directors we have experienced.....all activities and excursions were executed well! The highlight of the trip was the overnight Havana excursion....at first I was reluctant but don't regret!

We enjoyed several unique features of this ship.....thermal spa, infinity pool, and putting green. Since we partied quite a bit, I was glad we spent the extra money of the drink package.

Cabin Review

Cabin Deluxe Veranda

Only cabin issue was some noise from adjacent cabin sliding veranda doors and wall mount TV.

Port Reviews

Cienfuegos

Guide very experienced, city not too crowded, the large group impedes seeing small venues.....if and when you can take a break from the group...skip the shopping and go to rooftop bar of Union Hotel!!

Santiago de Cuba

Guides inexperienced, city crowded and not for people with mobility issues....the cathedral was the only highlight!
