Ship experiences

Eat,eat,eat. The restraunt food was great. The service in the main dining was slow.But over all great tasting and selections.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We went to the shows,comedies,karaoke and listened to the bands. With only 1 pool on board we did not attempt to get in. Relaxed on the pool deck alot and enjoyed some of the contest on the liddo deck.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The entertainment on board was great.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
As everyone we encountered was very polite and always smiling . Only 1 person really stood out .That was our room steward Charles. Maybe it's because he took wonderful care of us but also took the time to know each of us. He made us feel like part of the family.If I could give him 10 stars I would.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
I loved the layout. So easy to maneuver from floor to floor. The cleaning really took me by surprise.As this was our first cruise we worried about getting sick but we constantly saw crew members cleaning. from hand rails ,chairs door knobs and even the elevator buttons. This really made me feel better.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We loved the extended balcony on the rear of the ship.The best.

Ship tip

Relax , enjoy. They take wonderful care of you there .A catered vacation. It doesn't get any better.

Ports of call

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

4 out of 5
We would love to come back since our time here was short due to late docking ( Thanks to NCL not leaving on time ) and a medical emergency that caused us and many others to miss our excursions.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
I loved it here. Just did the walking excursion. To much to see and do. Next time we are not booking an excursion, We will tour on our own.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

5 out of 5
This port was very tourist friendly. Very clean with seats every where and trash cans Nice wide walking paths the whole port.The landscape has been very well taken care of. The nicest port of them all.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
My disembarkation was easy but I was also with my handicap mom so we was escorted off with the help of carnival. We got a porter as soon as we got off even though there was a huge long line of folks waiting. If we had not been with someone handicapped it would of been a night mare.
