We would definitely do a cruise again and with NCL. I think the RCCL was just a few steps behind as far as entertainment and activities.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining

The Buffett was crowded as usual. It was also slower service than usual because of COVID 19 precautions. The food stations were roped off and the staff was serving everybody individually so the lines were slowed down.
In the main dining rooms first class service was afforded to all. We felt like we were in a first class restaurant. The food selections were good, the presentation was really good also.

Entertainment

We went to The Choir of Man, and Kinky Boots. Both was of a Broadway Quality. (NOTHING SHORT OF AMAZING) The Beatles were a Blast and Guns and Rojas were a really good cover band. We went to The Social for the late X-Rated shows both were hysterical. The DJ's at The Social kept all dancing.
Just as a note the first couple of days the weather was not cooperative, but there were always things to do, games to participate in and the Bars were all everywhere. The Local has great wings and view of the Atrium. OOPS, I almost forgot abut the Temperature band was also really good.

The cabin efficient. Walking around the bed was a bit tight. Otherwise, fine.
