Review summary

This trip was very disappointing.  The room did not come with amenities that other cruise ships have provided including body lotion and other amenities.  The entertainment was below par compared to other cruise ships, and the food while good enough was not on a par with other cruise ships.  There were no lectures on the history of Bermuda and its significance as an Atlantic island.

I agree that O'Sheehan's was a lovely place to have breakfast and lunch, and we were served nicely.

Thanks for sharing your cruise with us.

I'm sure that it was not just the lack of body lotion that this traveller missed.  Celebrity on the identical cruise (and roughly the same price point) provides bathrobes, binoculars, totes, umbrellas, afternoon canapes delivered to your room gratis, etc.  Bigger balconey.  Better room layout with curtains that withdraw the entire width of the window so that the ocean was visable for more than two feet in front of the door.  A sofa bed (rather than a single bed with pillows) that could comfortably be sat upon and it's position was in front of the window so that you could sit and look at the ocean.   It's just disappointing when you know what you are missing.

The history of this beautiful and storied island is provided onshore at the official museum of Bermuda, the BREAKAWAY docks adjacent to it. The entrance is at the end of the pier and there are signs pointing the way to it. There are many beautiful artifacts on display from some of the nearby shipwrecks. There are maps and leaflets at the customs building just outside the ship.

As I've said before, if you want something that is not provided, ask for it. That's what guest services and housekeeping is for. Like me, Most passengers bring their own lotion, cream, mouthwash, toothbrush, toothpaste, etc. Like most passengers, I prefer the toiletries that I am used to using, especially since I have sensitive skin and allergies. So, NCL, in an attempt to reduce waste, will graciously provide such items upon request.

Really? Who cares and if you want body lotion and history, just ask.
