Absolutely loved everything except Victoria in the dark. I wish we had just walked to town by ourselves.
Embarkation

We were Haven. It was the easiest, fastest embarkation ever! We were the second couple on board and sitting in the Horizon Lounge before 11 am
Ship experiences
Food and Dining

We are in the Haven restaurant for the most part. We did eat at Ocean Blue and Cagneys for one dinner each. All 3 were phenomenal!
The Haven Restaurant
5 out of 5
Genina does an amazing job of running the restaurant. Mica was a very friendly hostess. Loved all the waiters and waitresses!! The food is delicious!!!! You don’t need specialty dining when you have the Haven. It was only crowded one time and we still had no wait. We went in with anywhere from 2-7 people.
The Haven Lounge
5 out of 5
Loved the bartenders! The drinks were delicious. If I was down on decks 6-8 and needed a drink, I would take the stairs back to deck 17 just to have Aggie or Paul make my drink.

Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Spent most of our time in the Haven, but did venture out to the fitness center for yoga. The instructors were okay - but not fabulous. The haven pool and hot tubs were top notch.

Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Loved the room - so much space and lots of drawers and cabinets. it was always extremely clean. The bed and pillows were so comfortable. It’s a California king, so wider but shorter than our King at home
Really enjoyed the town. The ship is a 20 min bus ride from town and your time here is short. There seemed to be a lack of organization with the shore excursions. We were taking the boat back to the ship so that we didn’t have to worry about making that last bus at 11. There were no signs of where to meet and no one showed up until right before we were supposed to leave. My sister in law was on a different excursion (kayaking) and their bus was 30 mins late. She got back to the boat at all aboard time.
We only had from 8pm-11:30 here. We did the walking tour excursion. The tour guide did not keep us entertained. When he was done, he said “I’m headed back to the ship. Follow me if you want.” He took off and didn’t seem to care if we kept up. He took us down dark streets and back alleys. I was not impressed!
Sounds like you enjoyed most of your cruise
Thanks for the review
I like to do our own excursions not Ncl’s
But always make sure I have plenty of time left to get back to the ship earlier than we have to
