Additional details
I wanted a cruise that was basically exclusive to Cuba. The people to people program was very rich although I was disappointed that a cigar factory tour, Castro's grave and a rum factory (not just the store) were included.
The staff on the cruise were exceptional at every level. They made the entire cruise enjoyable. This is an older ship without many amenities but it was worth taking for the port stops.
The ship is not kid friendly. They have a few hours for small kids on the sea days and an hour of Wii time for teenagers. That's all. There is a ping pong table and a gym or the very small salt water pool (max 10 people). So my kids - ages 14, 17, 18 didn't have a lot to do on non trip days.

Cabin Review
I had a smaller room and when I walked in had a panic attack. It was about the size of my bathroom at home for 3 of us. I immediately upgraded to a suite with balcony and it was a much better experience.

The tour in general was good but they took us to a location for an hour where we had to watch young people dance amateur Cuban dancing that wasn't good and dragged out.
