Food and Dining

Some of the food in the dining room was not great! Sometimes the fish did not have flavor or the mashed potatoes were watery. Most days the food was good. The buffet was excellent with many choices

Cabin / Stateroom

The cabin was spacious and great. My only complaint was that my room was not as cold as I would like. The last night was actually hot and I could not sleep.
Ship tip
Dont order the water package. We paid $54 for 24 bottles of water. We brought most of them home. There is water all over this ship.
Took a taxi to the beach. Was overcharged and "taken for a ride" by the driver. They took us to tourist trap resort even though we insisted that we wanted to go elsewhere. They fooled us into beliving that we were going to the best spot. They probably received a kick-back. The beach was full of vendors harrasing us all day. Did not like Roatan at all. I would recommend taking an excursion with NCL to either ziplining or snorkeling as there is nothing else to do on this island.
The port was great. It was like a resort. Pool, shops, restaurants, hair brading, spa. We had a massage in a beautiful tiki style hut outside. No need for an excursion as you can enjoy the port. Lounge chais included
We took an excursion. Snorkel and beach at chankanaab park. The park was nice with lost to do. The issue was the time. We had to leave by 1:30. I would have liked to stay a few hours longer. The food at the park was terrible. Tacos with no flavors. Paid $95 for 2 adults and 3 kids. Our tour guide was great. The park has pictures of Fidel Castro and Che Guevarra when you walk in. If I would have know ahead of time that they support 2 known murderers, I would have never given them my money. The snorkeling was nice but short. There is a guy taking pictures as you snorkel. He carries fish food around to make it look like there are tons of fish. Big scam. Not very natural.
