I love the Western Caribbean run on a cruise. NCL really does a good job at keeping you distracted for the week with all the activities during the day, remember they have to do this from sun up to past it's going down, and they do a pretty good job at it. Thank you NCL for a great crew and good week. We look forward to our next voyage on one of your ships.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Big smiles and friendly faces is what greets you by the staff, and they have time to chit chat, NCL must have the friendliest crew at sea. The people were good, not as many teens on this trip, there were a bunch on little ones, all seem to be well behaved.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We did have one hiccup while at the sea during lunch at the Taste Restaurant the server's were not happy nor were they attentive. We were served our food which was bad enough to be returned, but the servers never checked on us, so we did make a written comment and spoke to Geraldine Ang the Assistant Maitre D' and it was corrected that afternoon. We received wine and other finger desserts to the room. Good job Geraldine!
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
We love to dance, and there is dancing for everyone, not just the trained dancers and there are game shows galore if that is your thing. There are dance classes and other outdoor entrainment.
The dance floor in the Tropicana was well used by all. There were dancers of all skill levels having fun. My wife and I are ballroom and latin dancers and we know how to share the floor with everyone, kids included. We made to feel special more than once.

Cabin / Stateroom

Good size for two to sleep, We did notify the steward of some stains in the rug and other small service issues and it was taken care of forthwith.
Ship tip
MY tip is buy the Thermal spa week on line, as it is cheaper. Then go and enjoy a week back and forth to the spa at your leisure.
Just do not like to be harassed by the locals. You can't walk ten feet in any direction without someone begging to walk you, drive you somewhere or just plain O begging for money. They should clean that up.
