March 2015 - 7 Night Western Caribbean (Miami Roundtrip) Cruise on Norwegian Epic
GREAT SHIP, GREAT FOOD

Amazing ship- we will try to book again. Awesome shows, great service. Some food are better than others. Would like to see more great dessert.

Overall , great ports and service. I would love to have more time in Croatia. Shows are ok , not a lot of variety after the main shows. Love the Asian night - hopefully more over asian will be served like- korean , vietnamese and filipino dishes. Will suggest smaller portions but flavorful and less salty for guest to enjoy.

The ship was nice, clean with rooms that are spacious and wider shower rooms. The ships water slide was cool but the line gets long. The gym is bigger but there are a few cycling machines that does not work , you have to pay extra to use the steam room ( which most of the other cruise ships were free) .The food was better, more choices than the other cruise ships that we went. We have cruised with Carnival, Princess, Holland, Royal .The only thing is that there is not a lot of shows to watch at night comparing to the other cruise ships. Blue man was great but definitely recommend cirque dinner - its up close and personal. Other than that - the other shows are ok except that some you need to pay extra. We always look forward to the escargot, lobster and creme brulee but those need to go the the specialty restaurants to get the real thing and you have to pay extra again.The ports - Jamaica- wont go back there, but Cozumel and Grand Caymen are great spots to snorkel and the water are pristine and blue.
Cruise tips
great place to snorkel. Local resorts drinks and food are expensive.
Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas
Clean huge area for sunbathers, multiple area for swimming, Loved the huge swimming pool. I wish the food that was served at cocay were Island favs like bbqs, or lechon and tropical fruits too
Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras
did the monkey, sloth excursion
Symphony of the Seas
you gotta try it and experience.
Its ok. Beach had a lot of seaweeds
Stay for 2-3 days to enjoy authentic Italian food and Gelato( not all gelato shops are good)
Tender - so get up early if you did not booked an excursion with the ship. That's the only part I really hope that they can find a way to make it easier for guest to get their tender tickets without getting up early and wait until 8;30 for the tickets.
tender port as well.
Norwegian Star
Check the ports and tenders.
7 mile beach is ok
snorkeling near the port - no need to pay extra
Norwegian Epic
My suggestion is to make sure to check your iterinary everyday - what activities you booked on and get a copy of the statement the day before your departure so there will be no surprises.
