Review summary

Never have we heard so many people complain about a ship. Experienced NCL people all said small ships. 1st timers said never sail again with NCL. We were going to invest in NCL before this experience.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

We ate in all the specialty restaurants. One of us ordered lamb the other a fillet, in bistro, we could not tell the difference and lol they were switched plus over cooked from the rare we ordered. The garden cafe for breakfast was standing room only and always out of something

Clean, comfortable great view

Ship tip

My advice would be don’t sail on breakaway choose one of the smaller ships they are terrific. Book dinner reservations for $ restaurants really early as they fill up fasr
