Review summary

It was a pleasant experience but I am not a cruise person. I found cruising to be a little too crowded and the excursions do not give me enough time to really explore the island. I feel like I am just putting pins on a map and I have a more progressive view of travel. But that is just a personal preference and nothing against Norwegian at all.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
It wasn't too bad to get on the ship. There were not a lot of signs for where to go but we found our rooom quickly enough.

All of the food was great. I would have liked some healthier options like more fresh fruits and vegetables and a variety of them.

Onboard Activities

The fitness center was amazing! As far as children go, I would have liked more kids activities and especially babysitting or childcare.

All of the staff were amazing.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was in great shape. We had a stroller though and had to use the elevators frequently which were often far too crowded.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The size and comfort were great. The bunk bed was genius. All of the storage was super helpful. It was very well designed.

Beautiful port. Lovely Island. The Magen's bay beach excursion was awesome.

Tortola, British Virgin Islands

5 out of 5
Beautiful beach. I think the beef island beach day could have been an hour longer though.

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
A little touristy and crowded. The blue lagoon was nice though.

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
This was so disorganized. We booked airport transfers though Norwegian but the line was so long we just ended up taking a cab. Super disorganized with no direction.
