Review summary

An absolutely amazing experience. After we took a perfect cruise on the Gem in August 2012, I originally thought it would be hard for NCL to live up to my already high expectations, but boy was I wrong. Everyone and everything was great. The crew were friendly especially the room stewards and the waiters & cooks in the garden cafe. The crew also do an absolute amazing job of maintaining the ship. You always see them around painting, fixing, cleaning the venues to keep the ship up to date and ready for where ever she goes. The cruise director, Lorena, and her staff were so energized and planned the entertainment around the ship very well. The food was also fantastic, we were never hungry. I also love how this ship is layed out. All public venues were great and well designed. Places like The Grand Pacific restaurant, Stardust Theater and Spinnaker lounge were especially beautiful and really comfortable. If I had one complaint about the whole ship it would be the selection of free drinks.... that’s if you don’t have the ultimate beverage package. My family chose not to get the beverage package because we didn’t feel like paying an extra thousand bucks and the only drinks we were allowed to get were a few juices in the Garden Cafe and water. That’s it. In the complementary restaurants, you can’t get any drinks besides water without paying for them. It’s just kind of unfair. But to look past that minor detail, I’d say NCL once again succeeded in delivering us the vacation of a lifetime. We look forward to seeing more ships in the fleet soon.
