This was our second cruise and we loved it! The ship was amazing and the staff were really great! If you’re going on a cruise with your kids, watch your damn kids! It’s not NCL’s responsibility to be the babysitter. My only real issue with the boat, was the size of the main pool. Way to small.. Our room was great, our bartenders, (Max and Ramel) were the shit! You wanna have a great cruise?! Tip these workers that bust there butts for you! We had a great cruise, because we weren’t looking for deficiencies. Doesn’t mean we didn’t have or see any. We just didn’t let it ruin our time...

Ship tip
Treat the staff with dignity and respect! They work hard to please you, even when you criticize them, with a smile on their face. Also, you want good drinks?! Tip your bartenders. Get to know them and they will get to know you.
This was the NCL Private/leased island of Belize. The weather didn’t cooperate and a lot of excursions were cancelled. My only real complaints about this stop was that the drinks were WAY overpriced and that the Tender operators were very rude to people. Not to me, cuz I bite back, but to others. Nice island though! Didn’t stop us from having a good time.
This was a fun day. Booked an excursion from ShoreFox, but couldn’t find them. So, we hung out at Costa Maya and rented a golf cart into town. Fun place. Would have liked to have had more time here. The Bird Aviary was super cool. Definitely do that if you can. Lots of shopping here. This place is fine when it’s only two boats in port. When there were four boats, things got really cramped, really fast.
Cozumel is Cozumel.. A nicer version of Tijuana in my opinion. We did do the Jet Boat excursion and that was a blast! We did some snorkeling and had a great lunch afterwards. Highly recommend this excursion.
By far this was our favorite place! I highly, highly, highly recommend the Turquoise Bay VIP excursion. This beach is beautiful and the staff were amazing! We want to come back again. Stay for a week. DO THIS EXCURSION!
This was a cluster and not conveyed very clearly on how it was going to be done. I know there was a pamphlet supplied, but there was no real announcement over the intercom on where to go.
