We really enjoyed our cruise but the crowds were a lot to deal with. No fault of the cruise but lots of guests were just rude and out of control.
Maybe our fault as we didn't realize it was Spring Break but it wasn't the College kids out of control it was the adults!
Too many people drinking non stop, maybe NCL should put a daily drink limit, don't get me wrong we drink too but not to excess!

Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Taste seemed to struggle, felt as maybe they were the training area.
Savor and Manhattan were great.
Bars typically had only one server, we thought this might be to keep people from drinking too much!
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Always clean, ladies rooms often smelled but were being cleaned often
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Always love NCL balconies!
Ship tip
Make reservations for dinners and excursions well in advance online!
Took NCL tour "Eco hike to St John" which was not as advertised and disappointing. Complained to excursion desk and was given a $20 refund on a $160 excursion! Not cool
Tantio bay was nice but crowded, once we left the port area it was a non stop constant haggle with guys wanting to give us a tour. They got down right rude when we said no thank you politely. So much so we turned around and went back in the ship
Glad you had a good time even with the crowd as far as limiting the drinks , I think they should limit the one’s getting wild and out of control. It’s not difficult to see when some has too much but should not be across the board and punish everyone because of a few crazy drunks.
