Review summary

A great ship and itinerary, despite the size of the ship we never felt crowded. The staff were outstanding and couldn't do more to help, the entertainment was excellent

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very quick at Miami, with no significant hold up.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food quality was outstanding, especially in Le Bistro and Cagney's Steakhouse. The service was faultless. We didn't use the buffet. The Waterfront concept works extremely well for the bars and restaurants.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Great to be able to say we played mini golf at sea.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The main shows were superb, the Cirque show lived up to expectations and the Wine Lovers lunchtime musical was great fun. The individual bar entertainment wasn't up to the usual NCL standard, but everything else was.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Faultless service from all staff.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
This is the biggest ship we have sailed on, but at no time did it feel crowded. Seat availability was excellent.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Great size of cabin.

Ship tip

Use the Waterfront bars and restaurants, and book shows and speciality dining early.

Ports of call

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

We didn't book an excursion and had planned to go for a walk onshore, but we found the area outside the port shops quite intimidating and quickly went back on board. If you are here we would recommend an organised excursion and waterproofs - it rained non-stop.

Harvest Caye, Belize

5 out of 5
Beautiful resort island.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
We did an excursion to Mayan ruins which was excellent, with a great tour guide.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
We went for a walk and my wife was extremely happy with the shopping onshore.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Painless and very fast using self walk off.
