This trip it was my husband & I,and my mother in-law and father in-law. We really enjoyed the Ship, the adult crowd, the much needed relaxation. It was a WONDERFIL trip

Food and Dining
5 out of 5
EXCELLANT food in the dinning rooms & specialty dinning. We did eat in the Buffets a few times, but the food selections were kinda odd this time, I know with lower number of guests,the amount of food and choices would be less. They tried to cover many choices but some were just so strange . I had not see some of these before. My husband loves Indian Cusine,but even these choices were kinda odd and didn't appeal to him. We did eat in O'Sheehans a few times, which was good ..But they cut this menu back too..I know every Cruise line is just getting back and running and hoping they all get back to what we remember .I will say that the main buffet was very elegant in design and loved how it was lit at night..Very Beautiful

Onboard Activities

We enjoyed this ship very much. This ship had enough things for us . Would have liked 1 more hot tub,or the staff making 1 hot tub hotter.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
I love music thru the whole boat. We usually enjoy all of the programs at night. We didn't think the comedian was very good. Usually the comedians and magicians are good,but this time a little lack luster . It could be that everyone has to get back into the groove since the shut downs . As for the Main productions ,well they were good. Blazing Boots very high energy,but a number or 2 was a little too "strip tease style" .We were there with my Mother in law and Father in law and thought a little too much. The other Main production was good ,but just not the ELEMENTS program we have seen on the DAWN before. That show is just stunning.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5

Ship Quality
5 out of 5
AWESOME....I saw cleaning going on non-stop in every section,what people were not really even looking or noticing.Like walking thru the Garden Cafe late at night to get something to drink. The staff cleaning every nook at crany ..NCL has ALWAYS had a high standard for sanitation even before COVID. This is one reason our family loves sailing with them.
Cabin / Stateroom

Our room was fantastic!! Our Room Steward Francis,just SUPERB... We talked with him many times the cruise. He was very charming and genuine to talk to. He was so eager to please and always one step ahead of us..He seemed to really love his job and so glad to be back as well.
We visited Gumbalina Animal Park and really enjoyed ourself. We love this port,and know it will take a little while for the port to be humming and busy like old times.
This private island is wonderful. We however live in Pensacola,FL where we already have beautiful beaches & water sports,so this is not a min draw for us. We did however go on an excursion to Nim Li Punit Ruins,and Spice Farm w/ Botanical Gardens in the Toldeo.Belize area. We were saddend that they had closed the Little Museum at Nim Li Punit due to Covid,which held many of the stelas and findings from the ruins. LOVE BELIZE...We have taken cruises where we get to stop at Belize City port which has tons of shopping .This port is a good distance from this private island port.
We LOVE to go this port as well. Plenty of resort style area,and shopping for those that like that. We love to go the 3 miles or so to the beaches and sleepy little fishing village of Mahahual . I got a fantastic hour massage on the beach .It was so relaxing . We love to stroll along the path of the more authentic little village.
We love this port too..My husband and I honeymooned in Cozumel over 23yrs ago,and have watched this little area grow more each time we visit. We usually go further into town,away form the strip and main road area.
