Review summary

I’ve been on several NCL ships and this one beats them all! I had just sailed on the Escape two weeks before this one and you can definitely tell that they are sister ships. The layout is very similar, but there are some definite upgrades on the Encore. I would say that my favorite unique feature on this ship is the Galaxy Pavilion. I had never tried any kind of virtual reality before so this was a very cool experience! Another thing that I thought was really nice was the Observation Lounge. The floor to ceiling windows offered very impressive views! The one and only complaint that I have was that the extended balcony in my cabin meant that the people in all of the cabins above could see onto my balcony so it lacked privacy...not that I was using my balcony in November in NY, but it’s something that I would keep in mind when booking a cabin on this ship in the future and is the reason for my giving the cabin 4 stars. Everything else in the cabin was excellent.
