Review summary

The cruise was great. We had lots of quality time together, which was the whole purpose of the trip and ship is huge. I was grateful that it wasn’t full of people I don’t think I would’ve been able to handle a full boat. The food was tasty. The entertainment was good.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy. The ship wasn’t full so everything flowed smoothly getting onboard

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Two people in our group of 4 got some type of intestinal discomfort. Quite possibly from something they ate

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Two people went to the spa and enjoyed a massage. We all did the go carts on top of the ship. It was okay but nothing I wanted to run back and do again

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Everyone in our group agreed the choir of men was exceptional. They provided a great show.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
I’ve sailed with celebrity in the past and feel like they do a much better job of making the passengers feel comfortable. I wasn’t impressed with NCL.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
The ship was too big for my liking. It seem clean enough but since two out of four of us got sick, there were some germs floating around.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The rooms were comfortable and clean although a little small. Beds were super comfortable. I slept really well the floor was quiet.

Ship tip

Wash your hands frequently

Ports of call

San Pedro (Los Angeles), California

3 out of 5
We just spent the night and got on the ship the next day. Stayed at Hotel Maya in Long Beach. There were several parties going on so it wasn’t the best lodging choice.

Vancouver (Canada Place), British Columbia

4 out of 5
Vancouver is a very nice city love the people and the place there’s lots to do there.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Everything went smoothly. Getting off the ship luggage was where it was supposed to be. The process was quick and easy.
