Review summary

Great experience - lots of fun You need to find ways to connect singles that are cruising - perhaps on the hub app - add a singles portion

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Smooth and easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Food was great, drinks were very watered down with minimum alcohol - not that I wanted to get “wasted” but when you buy a drink package, you want what you order.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Spa was great - just wish they would not try to sell you things after your treatment. And be aware if they get you to book something the next day - you can’t cancel if the treatment is within 24 hours. (Kind of a shady sales tactic)

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Comedians were great

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Army is one of the best massage therapists I have ever had! Ivan if the best bar server I’ve experienced on any ship - great attitude and very personable and fun! Emma was one of the best cruise directors I have experienced Laylay was great in the comedy club too

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Very clean Imalde was my cabin steward and he was amazing!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Ship tip

Bring a fan to circulate the air in your stateroom.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
La casa en la playa was great! Facundo the bar tender is s staple here and always makes the experience so fun!

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Much more organized- need to be more strict with people getting off the ship when it isn’t their time to disembark

FYI, Norwegian has single cabins in a singles only part of the ship. There is a lounge in there too as I understand it.
