Cuba Cruise will now be rebranded as Celestyal Crystal under the Celestyal Cruise banner. It will be cruising year-round starting November 2016, after its third season.
The CEO of Celestyal Cruises, Kyriakos Anastassiadis said that their third season (2015-2016) was the best season they have so far. To respond to the demand of their authentic Cuban product, they will start sailing year-round on their fourth season which will begin on November 21, 2016, a month earlier that last year. They also expect to get more passengers around the world with their "authentic Cuban experience," SeatradeCruise reported.
The 480-cabin Celestyal Crystal will sail all-inclusive, seven-night cruises through the last weeks of 2016 and through the rest of 2017. These include two days on Havana and a short stop at Maria La Gorda, which has the best beachfronts and underwater marine life. There will be two more Cuban calls that include Santiago de Cuba and Cienfuegos. The cruise will start in Havana on Mondays and in Jamaica on Fridays.
The Celestyal Crystal is a 1,200-passenger ship. It has three restaurants, four bar lounges that includes a theater lounge, a casino and a dance floor. A pool, Jacuzzi and a fitness center is available as well as a spa and beauty salon and children's facilities, according to Daily Express.
Drinks packages are available upon booking. The Blue package includes unlimited beers, wines, spirits, some cocktails, tea, coffee, soft drinks and bottled water. The White package on the other hand includes unlimited non-alcoholic drinks and there is a Junior package for children 5 to 12.
"The all-inclusive Cuba Cruise remains the unchallenged, value-for-money cruise to the best of Cuba," said Anastassiadis.
American citizens can now book a cruise easily without any diplomatic obstacles. To have an access to Cuba, Americans should agree to participate in the Celestyal's "People to People" cultural exchange program, according to Maritime Matters.
