This was our first cruise. The norwegian Sky was an older ship and from what i understand the smaller of the fleet. We sailed out of Miami to Cuba. The ship itself was good, everyone that worked on it was very nice and eager to please. This ship had unlimited drinks so that was a big plus, and they did not skimp on the liquor, drinks were strong. They food was okay, For a four day cruise there was plenty to do. Cuba was amazing and the process to get off the ship was easy. We did an excursions on a air condition bus and it was very enjoyable and informative. You can do excursions on your own with the old cars for less money but you are taking your chances with that. There is no toilet paper in Cuba so take tissues with you. Also bring water with you. I also suggest going to the market that is within walking distance of the terminal. Lots of nice things and very inexpensive. Take a camera. Great stirrup bay was also nice we rented a large cabana which was wonderful I highly suggest you do that. It was like having your own little cabin with towels and mats for the ocean included, also a refrigerator and a fan overhead. Got waited on and we felt like royalty it is well worth the money. The only complaint I had was the disembarkment to get on the tender boat. People waiting on lines in the hallway and if you took the elevator down you got off in front of the line. Not planned well. All in all I really enjoyed the cruise. I would definitely do it again maybe on a bigger ship the next time. Free style cruising was better and we were also able to take our luggage off the morning we were leaving.

Cabin Review

Balcony

Cabin BC

Room was small, Having the Balcony was the only way I can do it. We were on the 10 deck and even though we were right under the pool, it was not noisy at all. One outlet and no coffee pot. would of love to have the coffee pot. Shower was tight but the water pressure was strong and water hot. Not enough room or place to put your clothes away so we lived out of suitcase which we left on the small sofa which really made the room smaller. But hey you don't really stay in your room except to sleep. Nothing to watch on the TV, Internet was okay if you bought into it. Didn't see shampoo so bring your own.Hair dryer was decent.
