Review summary

For our 2nd time on this ship , it was just as awesome as our last. 

There were pros and cons. The Pros : The food in the Tropicana room was amazing and varied the 3 nights we were there. Made it to the buffet a few times as well and while not spectacular , it was very good and did have a nice variety and wasnt too crowded the times we were there. Saw Burn The Floor and while i wouldnt neccesary see it at home i would recommend the show as it was amazing. The Illisionarium is worth the price esp the upgraded/closer seats. The Million $ Quartet was worth about $900,000 !! Comedians kept us in stiches and yes you had to make reservations but its worrh it. Rope course , waterslides , and Spice H20 were all fun and watched the entire Super Bowl from a Hot Tub , so cool. Didnt go to any specialty restaurants or the spa. Ports were nice and weather was hot , had an amazing time and would definately recommend/go again on NCL and the Getaway again but probably wait for a different itinerary.Staff were awesome and happy/friendly/attentive all the time and although didnt see out room steward all the time he did a great job on our room.

Cons: Yes the pool is a little small but you know that going in.

It was only 7 days

O'Sheehans is great for a late night snack or a meal , big enough menu you could go 7 times and have something different each time. Didnt go to any of the Specialty restaurants but hear they are good

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was built in 2014 , we were also on it in 2015 and it doesnt look like its aged at all.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We really REALLY lucked out. Originally booked an inside cabin but "bid" on a balcony and got an Aft-facing balcony , highest category of balconies available.

Ship tip

Make reservations as early as you can as some of the popular shows do get filled up quick. Went to Tropicana w/o reservations twice and didnt have to wait at all
