Norwegian Gem

7 Night Bermuda (New York Roundtrip)

Sail date: August 21, 2011

Ship: Norwegian Gem

Cabin type: Oceanview

Traveled as: Couple

Review summary

The ship itself was beautiful. The rooms were very nice (we were on the 5th floor with a pretty large window). We felt like we had enough space in the room to live comfortably for 7 days. The buffet needed a little work- we got kind of tired of the same food everyday, but the variety of specialty places to eat were wonderful! We felt there were too many children/teenagers on board, because we are a young couple without kids, but it really is a great family atmosphere.

We loved our room. The large window really helped.

Ports of call

King's Wharf, Bermuda

3 out of 5
This port was kind of far from everything we wanted to do or see. We had to take a lot of public transportation, but there was a 3 day ferry/bus pass that we bought which was good.
Don't Miss: Not exactly at this port, but I would recommend a bus ride to HorseShoe Bay Beach and a ferry ride to the Crystal Caves.

Pros: Never a boring moment- always something to do on the ship

Cons: It was more of a family (lots of children) atmosphere- and we went as a twenty-something young couple with no kids
