Overall we enjoyed the cruise. Havana is wonderful and just wished we'd had more time there. That port made the whole cruise worth it.

The first port, Great Stirrup Caye, is a waste of time in my view. Would rather have another day in Havana. Nothing on Great Strirup Caye except the beach and a couple of bars. It's a cruise line owned island so they are just making money from anything you do there.

Havana is wonderful and we are already planning a trip back that won't be on a cruise. You need several days there to really see the city. It was nice to be there until late in the evening but another day would have really been great.

Cabin Review

Family Balcony

Cabin B2

Loved the room. Was perfect size for my wife and I. Generous storage also. But the balcony made all the difference. Room feels open and welcoming for two people.

Port Reviews

Harvest Caye

Disembarkation was a disaster and completely unorganized. Our excursion was ok but took up the entire time in port and didn't allow us to spend any time mixing with the local community.

Havana

Nice 2 hour overview of Havana and the key historic sites. Good way to get to see all the city on a short time schedule.

Great Stirrup Cay

Just went to the beach there. Not really much else to do at this port.

Costa Maya

Outstanding site to see. Had time to see amazing Mayan pyramids and still spend time in the local town and shop with the local community.
