We had a great time, I'd recommend the cruise line, the ship and the trip to anyone interested in a cruise vacation. A great experience on a new cruise company than I've used in the past. I will definitely consider cruising with Norwegian Cruise Lines again.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Good, much less hectic than I've experienced in the past on another cruise line.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The food was good in all the areas we ate, the main dinning areas, the casual eating areas, and the specialty restaurants were all very good.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
We did not use the pool, too many children for us. We wanted to use the hot tubs but they were always full. There was a small racing track, seemed more for kids, and didn't use the water slide since the pool was full of kids.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
We went to three shows, the Beatles Revival was good. The show Kinky Boots had technical difficulties and had to stop, but we were able to see it a few days later. The show Chorus of Men stopped because an actor fell and was injured, the show was not rescheduled. We enjoyed what we saw. In the Atrium there were also musicians, and around the pool musicians or DJ's. Also in the Atrium there were a lot of games and fun things to watch.
Children's Programs
No children were with me.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Every single waiter, room steward and other ship personnel were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Passing stewards in the hallway, not our own, each one was very friendly, always smiling and wishing you a good day. The bar staff was also great, the waiters were so nice, everyone we encountered seemed happy to be there and working to make our visit as pleasant as it could be.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The entire ship was clean and well staffed. We saw staff cleaning everywhere, in the hallways, in the other common areas, the restaurants.... everything was great. The layout was good, I was always having to look at signs to remember what floor I wanted, but it was easy to find.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
It was small, but I expected it to be. The layout was good, the bathroom was decent sized, well set up. I was pleasantly surprised the shower was as large as it was. My only suggestion is that there be instructions to leave the room key card in the slot to keep the power on in the cabin at night. I sleep with a medical device that needs power, the first night was rough, not knowing we had to keep a card in or the power outlets would go off.
We did an excursion, but did not book early enough to get what we wanted. We enjoyed what we did, but would have done something else. I highly suggest to anyone to book before the cruise.

The time in this port was very limiting to what we could do, and it was a evening arrival so it was dark already. We did a bus tour, but it wasn't easy to see anything much.
Very easy, I liked the baggage pickup very much more than I have on past cruises in different cruise lines. Very organized and very easy to find our bags.
