Review summary

Fantastic cruise with a fantastic staff. We did miss the towel animals. Maybe they could have at least one during a cruise.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

No problems cruise terminal before security was a bit small

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Everything was wonderful food staff. In some of the restaurants a few of the tables werw a bit dark.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Weather was COLD so outside wasn’t really used. Inside the ship didn’t seem crowded except for the Atrium. This area is used for too many things and is always overflowing. They need to put games in a large space

Entertainment

Awesome ship, great experience!

Disappointing Design Decisions by NCL with Encore

While NCL Encore was beautiful, the Captain instead of taking a easier/more southern route went head on into the storm(s). First thought it was to rush through bad weather but crew suspected it was to test the ship. SPA kept having things NOT working.
