Review summary

Just got home from my first cruise and it was more perfect than I thought it was going to be! The staff were amazing and always so friendly and there to help. The dining was great, we went to Cagneys, Teppanyaki, Moderno, the Manhattan, o Sheehan’s, & Taste. Our favorite was absolutely Teppanyaki! The expierence was just so much fun and you got A TON of food. Definitely go hungry. Cagney’s was our second favorite, the food was amazing there. We didn’t care too much for Moderno but it wasn’t bad. It just wasn’t our kind of dinner. The complimentary restaurants were great! So many options and the food was just as good as the specialty restaurants. The pool area was fun, we had vibe passes so we didn’t spend too much time on the main deck but from what I saw there were always open chairs. They may not have always been in the favorite places but there were plenty of spaces to hang out near the pool. In my opinion there are soo many things to do on board that we couldn’t sit in a chair for hours, but if you did want to the top deck there’s a lot of chairs that people don’t use because it’s away from the pool but gets plenty of sun. The entertainment was great!! We played bingo, watched deal or no deal and all of the other little games and shows they had around the ship. Howl at the Moon was so much fun! The staff were very fun and entertaining themselves. My favorite bar has to be tobacco bar on deck 7 I believe. They had a lot of great tastings there for different alcohols. Bermuda! We rented a moped, which I DO NOT recommend if you are not VERY experienced with riding motorcycles. The locals are great but they are very aggressive drivers and you have to keep up with them and watch out for them or there will probably be an accident happening. But with the moped we were able to travel the island and hit up all the main beaches multiple times and the hidden beaches. It was great to be able to explore on our own. Excursions! The only excursions I would recommend would be the ones where they actually take you out and snorkel or scuba. Even so you can rent snorkel gear at all the beaches and see fish. I saw a ton. At the pier they have a ton of busses going to all the beaches and back for way less than what you would pay NCL. Over all the vacation was perfect and I would go again in a heart beat! The only downsides were that we were jipped when buying a watch. They sell watches and jewelry at huge discounts some days of the cruise. Especially the second to last day. My bf bought a watch, we checked the price when we got back home of that watch and a couple others and they were on clearance on the actual watch website for wayy less than what he bought it for. So pleaseee price check before buying if you can find someone with the internet package. I also only got one towel animal wahh..but I was still happy, our room looked amazing after they did it every time. If anyone has any questions you can message me!
