Missing Roatan was the last straw on this cruise. While all other ships ported, our Captain chose not to. Missing Six and the cancelation of Burn the Floor was not good. Allowing 2-3 people to ruin most people's enjoyment at Howl At The Moon was horrible. These places are usually fully packed. Because of these 2-3 people, there were never more than 50% and it went to 10% quickly because of them.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
It was good and glad we were there early. Waiting while sitting for 90 minutes was better than standing in congested lines for 2 hours.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Specialty restaurants were good. I wouldnt spend $50 for any of them, but $25-$30 would be fair price. O'Sheehans and the buffet were all good.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
The things to get pax involved were limited. I found Carnival to be more entertaining in this aspect.
Entertainment
1 out of 5
We missed Six because of our waiter in Moderna. Burn the Floor was canceled for our cruise. The final night of Six (only 2 showings) we already had other plans
Children's Programs

Non-existent
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
We found all of the staff to be above and beyond. The only exception is a weak Captain

Cabin / Stateroom

The bed was just too hard to get a good night sleep on. Still trying to catchup on that now.
Ship tip
Definitely have a drink at Syd Norman's bar outside on Deck 8. Friendliest and most fun bartenders on the ship (Avni)
Its a nice pool and beach area. What is horrible about this port is everything is INSANELY overpriced. In order to go to independent excursions, you have to pay $25pp to get over to the mainland and the time waste doing so. I will never go to Harvest Caye again.
NCL only had us here for 4-5 hours. Being let off 45 minutes late cut it even shorter. People working in the port even say to leave it because it is overpriced, below average food and drink. A full day here to be able to get out of the port area may change my feelings.
