Review summary

We had a great time on the cruise. From the speciality dining to the shows. The only thing we wished NCL would do, is to prep us on the evening activities like the Glow party or other things we could pack for. Other than that, we enjoyed it very much.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We were fortunate to be in the Haven on this trip, which gave us priority embarkation. Even with the Covid Test being done on site, it was quick and easy.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We spent most for the time in the specialty restaurants, which we loved, especially Cagney’s and the Tappanyaki restaurants. Only disappointment was O’Sheehan. Their dress code, especially that women can not wear ball caps in the middle of the day, even if it is fashionable and keeps their hair up. My wife refused to go back.

Service and Staff

Again, as we stayed in the Haven, we had the added service of their staff including a butler, who was attentive, a great concierge and the entire Haven staff.

Other than a few issues, that were taken care of quickly, the suite was great.

Ship tip

Travel sooner than later. It was great with the lower ship capacity.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

5 out of 5
Perfect timing. We had the chance to get the beginning of Mardi Gras. Great time. The city did a great job in making sure we felt safe but had fun.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
We did the Dolphin Swim. Love it. We strongly recommend.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

2 out of 5
Disappointed in the excursion we selected which reflected poorly on the destination. We strongly recommend NOT TO take the Turquoise Bay VIP all inclusive Beach Break. Very good guide but terrible service from everyone else.

Harvest Caye, Belize

5 out of 5
Lots of activities to enjoy.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
For a short stop, we had a great time. The Mayan Wellness Retreat was excellent.
