Hi we will be on the Horizon next summer departing from NYC on 8/20...quick question is the Havana Pool open for all guests? I was told it's only available to guests who booked Havana suites.
It is open to all after 7pm until then only those who are in Havana Cabins i understand you have a wrist band and they enforce no entry with it.

Starting to get nervous about our early December cruise on Fascination out of San Juan. I really hope this hurricane changes course. It would be a shame for the islands to take more of a beating and with the warmer waters, hurricane season may just last longer this year.
I too have a early Dec. cruise on the Fascination, will contact my PVP and push back my cruise until May or June of next year i have the time so i'm flexible.

We did a full transit Panama from Miami to LA in January on NCL, highly recommend.

Thanks Paul your review just confirmed i made the right decision will be there 4 days Pre cruise can't wait

I do not know about the curtain, as we only had a regular Havana Cabana cabin, not a suite.
Your lanai balcony is very nice, and quiet. You can socialize with your neighbors as little or as much as you feel like doing. We only saw ours in the mornings when everyone was having coffee. Since there is a locking door at the top of the Havana cabin area, there is very little foot traffic as well.
Your sliding door will have its own separate key card plus it has a special security lock on the inside for when you are inside your room. Make sure that lock is not engaged when you want to go in and out of your sliding door. Use it for extra security for when you are in the room. It is very convenient. We went in and out of our glass door more than we used the hallway doors.
Hope this helps!
I am a balcony cruiser but will be on the Horizon for 24 days and booked a Havana Cabana for the duration will i be spoiled or is it just ok.

I would start calling or email some of the hotel now just to get a idea how they may accommodate your needs for such large group discounts may be in order. We are booked at HOTEL EUROPARK for our upcoming Med. Horizon cruise April 29 give them a call or email.

Once you go balcony you may never want to go back so be prepared.

Our family stayed at the Hotel Europark this past January and it was great. Just booked another cruise out of Barcelona and booked 5 days pre cruise again at the Hotel Europark. We will be there for New Year's Eve and looking forward to it.
It is a modern hotel and has thousands of positive reviews on TripAdvisor. After staying there we concur.

Thank you all for your responses! I definitely don't expect any special treatment I was just wondering if it was possible and what do most people do. I can't call the hotel and find out exactly since its an international number but I'll call once I'm there. Hopefully like you all said if the room is available they will let us in, if not I'll ask to store our luggage, no biggie. It's a Marriott hotel so me being a loyalty member hopefully will help my cause, if not it's no worries, I won't be too upset. Of course if they are sold out and there is nothing they can do then understandable. I didn't know that when the ship docks at 5am you have until 9-9:30am to leave, so we'll definitely take our sweet time! Thank you all!
Just be aware i read from another OP that they arrived early at the hotel the room was not ready but the front desk attendant offered them another room they could have fine, but when they received the final bill it had another day included he did not tell them they would have to pay for the extra day, they spoke with the MGMT. but would not correct the bill. so be careful if they offer you a room if you arrive early you may be charged for a extra day.

You say that you have a PVP then why not let him or her know your preference in cabins and deck that way when you make a booking they know your requirements.

Booked on for May 28, 2018. Thinking of doing a back to back, but haven't been able to get the same cabin.
Our cabin was also booked for the BTB we wanted to do so about 2 months out checked again and there was a cabin available ( it was our same cabin ) how lucky so just keep trying you might get lucky also.

You can wait for a mini van taxi. Last year four of us went in one taxi, with cruise luggage.
Thanks for the info. we will try to get the mini van taxi
-
We have always found the taxis in Barcelona to be a good choice.
Can the taxis handle 2 reg. luggage 2 carry-on and a backpack, are they like our SUV or sedans we will be on the Horizon next year.
We also lived in Columbia Md for 22 years

We are in a Havana Cabana Cabin on our Europe BTB cruise I booked the same cabin for booth stays thats 24 days enjoying our Lanai you only live once so no complaint about cost.
