Review summary

Food was of a very high quality and Norwegian deserves its great reputation for entertainment. Short time in Grand Cayman together with tendering requirements (hassle)  made us choose to stay on board. Our snorkeling and beach excursion at Cozumel was cancelled due to winds but a couple of hours at Senor Frogs made up for it. Do not like the design of the balcony cabins - least favourite of any cruise ship that we have been on - they made this curved wall thing so that they could cram in more staterooms per linear foot of the ship and it's a failure. Try and reserve your entertainment before sailing, as it books up fast. Second City is good if you hit the right show (ie go to where they do play acting, not game shows) unfortunately when you reserve ahead of time you don't know which show you are getting.
