From the time we booked this cruise until we actually embarked, they had changed 4 different ports. The quality of the food left a lot to be desired. On previous Breakaway cruises, the quality was much better. Lots of port cancelations. The last night, if you had a credit, you had to go collect since they would not apply credit to your credit card on file. Very long lines with lots of unhappy people. I'm thinking twice about taking another NCL cruise and we're shareholders.

No issues.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
We have 5 nights of Specialty dining. We enjoyed Moderno but our steak at Cagney's was tough or overcooked. Quality was far below previous cruises.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Did not use any of the extra facilities.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Burn the Floor was very good. SIX was ok. Some of the musicians that played in the Atrium was very good.
Service and Staff
2 out of 5
We had to ask for everything from our room steward. Our room was clean but not great service. I blame NCL for some of this since they have cut their staff and now require the ones working more rooms to service.
Ship Quality

The passenger participation shows, Newly-Not So Newly Wed game, bingo, movies, and others were in the Atrium rather than the theater so there were a very limited number of seats available to enjoy. Plus the noise was terrible if you were trying to talk with Customer Service, Excursions, CruiseNext, etc.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
I didn't realize we would have lifeboats just below us so our straight down view was obstructed. The closet opening location is terrible. It's at the end of the sofa and you have about 6". You have to stand off to the side to get into the closet. There were no drawer storage, only shelves and that was limited. Bad design.
Loved this port except for getting to the town. Must either take the cable car, walk 600 steps, or ride the donkeys. But worth it when you get to the top.
Very disappointed in Mykonos after going to Santorini or maybe I should say our ship's tour. Didn't even get to see the windmills. Do not plan on going back.
I agree 100% about the atrium. I said the same thing. Why don’t they use the theater? I can understand if it is a night activity but if it is during the day use the theater.
