Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I thought the food overall was very good ..In fact we are traditionally Royal Caribbean cruisers and we both thought the quality of the food was better on NCL EPIC

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The entertainment was ok at best . The best entertainment was the dueling piano players singing songs on request . I would rate that 5 stars but the rest gets 1 or 2

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
Ship overall is nice not spectacular by any means. Don't like the Freestyle Dinning process. THis is a good idea in concept but NCL needs to rethink how to administer it . I feel it should all be done online rather than waiting in line for anywhere from 5 minutes to 30 minutes just to get a beeper which then could be anywhere from 15 minutes to as long as 1 hour plus

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Rooms are not configured very well with toilet on one side and Shower on the other as you walk into the room

Thanks for sharing! We’ll be stopping in Bonaire on our next one. Any ideas on what to do there?
