Review summary

I thought this cruise was amazing. The ports, excursions, ship activities, food, drinks and cleanliness was well worth the price. We'll definitely be cruising with Norwegian in the future!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
There was a lot of waiting and lines during the embarkation process, but the lines moved fairly quickly considering the amount of people in line. My group and myself were onboard within 90 mins.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The restaurants and buffets food quality was great, and were always kept clean.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
There is so much to do! My group and I saw the comedy show, participated in the dance parties on deck 16, and also went to club Bliss a lot. All of which were great times. Oh, we also played pool and darts. There is so much to do.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We saw the comedy show and it was great.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff on the ship were great, very friendly and always helped if we had any questions.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Everywhere on the ship was clean, even the bathrooms throughout the ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
This cabin suite size wasn't bad at all. There were 3 of us staying in it, the couch bed worked out perfect, and the main bed felt like a king size. There is also plenty of storage cabinets and drawers so you don't need to live out of your suitcase. The bathroom was a good size too, we didn't feel cramped, and also had double sinks.

Ship tip

I would recommend booking dinner reservations/shows in advance. There were a few we weren't able to get in because we booked too late. Also purchase metal hanging hooks for your room so you can hang hats, purses, jackets, etc.
