Review summary
The staff went out of there way to make sure we had great service. The bartenders remembered our names and what we drink. We always gave a $1 tip when ordering a drink. The casino staff was great and very entertaining. When the casino got full there was a lot of smoke which we didn't like. Our room steward clean the room twice a day and left us notes on our bathroom mirror about fun activities that we should checkout.
As for the destinations:
Port Canaveral- we stayed on the boat and got a discount at the spa for a couples massage. The Spa hounds you to upgrade your massage and to buy over priced products.
Great Stirrup Cay- this private island was gorgeous. You eat for free on the island and if you have the drink package then drinks are free as well. We rented floating matts for the ocean and it was amazing. We saw a sea turtle and sting ray in the water as well as many fish.
Nassau, Bahamas- Amazing! We did the shopping in the morning and then did a snorkeling excursion with Island time charters. I recommend not booking an excursion with Norwegian because they are more expensive and they cram a bunch of people on the excursion. It was just me, my wife and our Captain Carlos, who brought us where we wanted to go. We determined our excursion. We told him we wanted to see Atlantis so he brought us up close with the boat. Then we told him we wanted to snorkel away from the crowds. He brought us to a sunken ship with nobody around. Priceless. And it was only $55 a person.
Dining in the Restaurants were great. The buffet food wasn't good.

Ship tip
Do your research before you go. Book restaurants before you get on the ship. Everything sells out fast. Best advice is when you board the ship go straight to guest services and get your vibe tickets so you have a private area away from the crowds and can relax.
