Blue lagoon chicken wings and brownie sundae for lunch were great. Main Dining room stripped steak was about the best steak I've every had (get the butternut squash with it.) don't be afraid to special order dinners as well, I mixed and matched parts of the different dinners

Make sure and go to the pool side every evening for the BBQ and entertainment

Make sure your cabin doesn't sit above a disco bowling alley. Noise does not emanate from there but from the howling drunks congregating outside. If you hate smoke, it permeates the area near the "French Restaurant because of a cigar bar and the casino and a smoking section outside.

The crew were just wonderful; always cheerful, friendly and helpful in every way.

Tips were in the main review...Share a cab if your going to Atlantis, It's quicker than the Water Taxi...

Our cabin 11076 was 3 cabins from the mid-ship elevators, one floor below the entrance to the buffet and the pool.Walking through the inside going to the stern the Great Out Doors was a great place to have breakfast.

We got a large Cabana on Stir up Cay owned by Norwegian. It was very good and on the quiet side of the beach. The only complaint was the service was less then expected. After reading other reviews I expected excellent service. For 350.00 and 60.00 for 2 more people it was a let down .

For "serenity" go to 3rd deck above pool-great shower to refresh. Get to evening shows EARLY...lateness is extremely disruptive. You won't gain weight if you use the stairs & stay active walking NASSAU (and visit their great national art museum ) If you gamble & booze it up, bring mucho bucks!

If you want to go to a non-buffet restaurant for dinner, make a reservation or you'll be waiting in line a few minutes. But the lines usually move fast so it's not too long of a waiting period.

Get to dinner around 6 p.m. in the Magenta dining room. Anytime after that gets kind of crazy and you will wait a long time for service.

The Stardust Theater's shows are first class. I felt that I was seeing a Broadway performance. The Cruise Director Dan Dan was hilarious -- very talented and a fabulous singing voice. Would love to see him again! The Garden Café buffet has a yummy variety of food choice.

We enjoy eating breakfast and lunch outside.

Sign up for Behind the Scenes tour of cruise ship as soon as you board - it books fast!

Get your breakfast at the buffet, and then eat in "La Cochina", which is air conditioned, instead of eating outside. Be aware of the fact that there is a free land shuttle from the ship's docking pier to excursion points. Saves a 10 minute walk, which helps, especially if you have a cranky hip!

If you plan on doing any excursions, reserve it once you get on the ship.
