Review summary

I enjoy cruising and this is my 6th cruise with Norwegian. I'm looking forward to other cruises in the future.

3 out of 5
Embarkation was very good.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Main dining room food and drinks were tasteful. Garden Cafe buffet not so good.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
I didn't participate in these activities.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The stage shows were good, but not as good as other ships. The music at different venues was always entertaining.

Children's Programs

Did not travel with children.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
My stateroom steward kept my room very clean. The other ship personnel seemed friendly and courteous.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The common areas were mostly clean except for left over glasses or snacks. The ship has a "quirky" design. Some places couldn't be accessed very easily.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
My stateroom was clean and comfortable.

Ship tip

Book ALL of your dinner reservations for TAPPANYAKI and BAMBOO as soon as you board because these restaurants are in a small space and can't accommodate many people.

Ports of call

New York, New York Did not visit port

I live in New York.

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

2 out of 5
This excursion was a disappointment! If you were located at the far end of the beach you didn't have access to the "barbecue" and music without having to walk all the way back to the front of the entrance to the beach. The sand and water at the far end of the beach was not good at all! Lots of rocks in the water! Great Stirrup Cay needs a lot of work!!

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
There were 2 other ships in Nassau so it was very crowded, otherwise it was a good excursion. Shopping for souvenirs was fun!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy!
