Review summary
I recommend this cruise to anyone! The Ultimate Beverage Package (UBP) was the best deal we ever had on a cruise and NCL makes it easy than ever to redeem any drink that is included, just swipe and drink (drinks $15 or less, which is pretty much anything). The UBP is written on your card so the bartenders/servers know you have the package (simple and easy). One tip, bring your own water bottle for water, it will save you time going back a forth to get water between drinks (hydrated = happy!) The food was exquisite at all dining rooms and specialty restaurants. SAVOR and TASTE were wonderful for dining at breakfast time and evenings (no wait for tables of two NICE!). Cagney's was our favorite, lobster and crab cake (too die for!) as well as Modern Churrascaria and Teppanayaki (the chefs put on a good show). The crew makes the difference, so nice and willing to serve each guest. We loved the extra touch of fresh towels, wet mint-scented cloths and cold water at every port. Little things like that go a long way when you are sticky from the beach. The Million Dollar Quartet was the BEST show we have ever seen on a cruise ship. The GLOW party is a must, dont forget to bring a white outfit and extra glow sticks. The ropes course was very challenging and the plank is a daring adventure for your nerves. The water slides are super fast even for adults. We cant wait to go back and do it again. Thanks for a great time Norwegian Getaway!

Hi Rebealex, The GLOW party is for all ages, however I do want to make note that it starts at 10:30pm and was predominantly adults that I saw, however, I did see little kids dancing with glow sticks and bigger kids with the face paint. They have free glow painting on face and arms starting at 10pm so get in line early. I recommend bringing a few extra cute glow sticks from the dollar to store, the ship had some to give away but they go fast. The party used to be called their White Hot Party and now they added a GLOW element, so dont forget the white outfit. Have fun out there!
