Review summary

First time cruising with NCL. I was not impressed the food was very lacking, the staff was clearly overworked and understaffed. The entertainment venues are way too small for the size of the ship. The entertainment performers and staff we did encounter were all pleasant. Overall i would not sail again with NCL based on my experience.

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Cagneys was very good. The buffet food was not good and lacked variety throughout the cruise. I’ve had better main dining food on other cruise lines.

The performers were great but the entertainment venues were extremely small for the size of the ship and compared to other venues on the ship were larger and empty.

Service and Staff

The ship is understaffed especially in the pool area and main dining rooms.
