We picked this cruise for its overnight stop in Havana, Cuba and stop in Key West.

Key West seemed like a touristy place, although it did have some neat things to do. We walked around on our own and made it to the Little White House (Harry Truman's vacation getaway) and did the free exhibit which was nice to read and see. We also did the Maritime museum which was ok.

Havana, Cuba was a really neat stop. We enjoyed the architecture and the people were very friendly. The Immigration process was a little lengthly at times, so especially the first time you dock allow plenty of time to get processed. You will also go through security going into and out of the country.

Cabin Review

Ocean View Stateroom

Cabin 2N

Room was ok (our room steward rocked though!). The room was a little tight getting to the side of the bed. Also, the bathroom was situated differently and had a shower curtain and less sink space.

Port Reviews

Miami

We stayed at the Miami Hampton Inn Brickell. It was a nice hotel convenient to a grocery store and eating options. Not much else to do for us thought nearby.

Key West

Key West has a lot of options for tours or other things to do. I reviewed the city in my ship review, so please look there!
