Review summary

Wonderful cruise! The worst part of my vacation was the driving due to our flights being cancelled! We are booked again for November! Love love love this ship!!!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Our flights were cancelled so we drove 15 hours to Miami! But once at the pier we where on board in less than 30 minutes!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
NCL always has good food! Never had a bad meal on any ship! Cagney is the best specialty restaurant on board!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We had a ball doing the Virtual reality! You can purchase by the hour the day or the week! We did the hour and had a blast! Loved hanging by the pool or port days! Of course there were chair hogs! After 2 hours of no one in the chairs we just moved their stuff! Go carts are a blast!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Entertainment is amazing Choir of men was excellent!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Room steward was amazing! We put in a very nice comment card for him! The waiter at the mojito bar was excellent he would ask as as soon as our drink was gone do you want another? Sometimes before we were finished! Lol

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
NCL always keeps the ship clean but this time was they were over the top! Anywhere you looked they were cleaning!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Room was very clean and we had plenty of storage! Balcony was a nice size we had room service one morning and sat on the balcony and watched the waves!!!

Ship tip

Staff are friendly but you also need to be friendly! Please don’t treat the staff like servants! Also don’t be a chair hog! Enjoy your vacation!

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5
We drove to Miami from Maryland in a hurry (due to our flights being cancelled the day before) so really could not say!

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
Loved the shopping area! We have been here a few times so we just shopped and went back to the Ship to enjoy the pool!

Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

5 out of 5
They have a new port that has just been built! Hung out at the pool and did a little shopping! Lovely place!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Not bad at all, took maybe 40 minutes from start to finish! The facial screening is fast and efficient!
