Havana Deck Question

[Theosprey247]

Thinking of booking a Havana interior for our next cruise. But which deck would be best?  5th where the Havana area (and bar) or somewhere else?  Is the noise from the bar annoying?  My wife and I spent the night dancing away to the Latin band most nights on our last cruise. So being close would be a bonus.

DH and I are booked on Horizon in a Havana Cabana Jan 2025.  So excited!!  We are on 5th floor and my PVP had heard from clients that close to the Havana area can be noisy at night as well as music from the Havana Bar.  I followed her suggestion and had her move our room about 5 doors toward the middle of the ship.  I have heard that the music ends around midnight which works for us.  We like to dance as well so we may see you on the dance floor💃😄

We had a Havana interior cabin on Deck 5 on the Panorama and noise was not an issue.  We booked the same cabin for a B2B  on the Vista in 2024. We love the location,  so we say go for it! 😎

There are stairs at the back of decks 6 and 7 making access to the Havana area pretty easy unless you have trouble with stairs. I still would probably go with deck 5, though, unless you are literally sharing a wall with the club.

Ok I pulled the trigger and booked a cabin on deck 5. Thanks for the info guys.

I wasn’t sure we could use the stairs in the aft, thought they might be for crew only. We have an aft wrap on deck 6 on the Panorama so this is good news, thanks !

Loved loved loved our Havana cabana on deck 5. We were right by the band area and surprisingly could not hear it at all in our cabin. Having the Havana area, Havana bar, ocean plaza, coffee shop, etc. all on the same floor and close by was amazing. Would be hard for us to sail on a Vista class ship and not choose the same area again.

I feel the same. Got one on the Celebration but passed on the Venezia. Without a pool there I couldn’t justify the price difference.

Which ship?

Apparently the Ocean Plaza coffee/breakfast goodies are no longer on the Panorama. We are booked in a Havana Balcony  Feb. 2023 and thought that would be great to get in the morning without having to go too far.

My wife and I stayed on deck 7 on Horizon and feel the same way. Having that stairwell in the back made getting to all of the Havana amenities very easy. Except for a family NYE cruise on Vista, we will always try to book in Havana.

Yup, they are for guests!  Even have nice carpet in the same colors as the Havana area.
