Review summary
First time traveling on Norwegian Cruise line and although I was pleasantly surprised with the overall experience, I did notice a few things that did not make the experience as exceptional. Past travel has been on Princess Cruise lines and their ships just seemed to have a little more elbow room so to speak. Specifically the adult pool (s). Norwegian only had one pool for 4000 people, whereas Princess has 2-3 (depending on the ship). In addition, the service level (# of staff) of Princess is a little above Norwegian. And lastly, perhaps a few more shopping outlets available on ship (Princess). But other than that, the staterooms were spacious enough and clean/well-taken care of. A few passengers we met felt that we really didn't "see" Honduras nor Belize as we were on islands for both, not the mainland. We would definitely cruise Norwegian again (perhaps another ship?) but it was a fantastic vacation.
