Review summary
Although I have always been a Norwegian fan, cruising every year for over 7 years, this cruise was very disappointing.
I noticed several "cut backs" that affected the quality of Norwegian. Also there I no acknowledgement for dedicated cruisers. The latitudes program is a joke
I noticed a lack in cleanliness in the cabins, discontinuing of the lobster/captains' dinner as well as the quality and variety of food offered.
We are planning our 2016 cruise now and we are comparing NCL along with the other competition. In the past I would NEVER consider another cruiseline...after this cruise. I am ready to try other cruise lines

Ship tip
The Gem is in great need of repair and upgrading. Upholstery is worn, chairs in the theater are broken. The pool and hot tub on pool deck are in need of painting.
Ports of call
Tortola, British Virgin Islands
