Review summary

Overall my Cruise expectation was excellent. The staff was always professional and respectful. The food at the restaurants and specially at the buffet was better than excellent. The only thing I did not like, was that my stateroom toilet smelled like urine inside the bowl every time, even after flushing.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
I didn’t get in the pool because it was very small and always crowed. I did enjoy the night activities, such as the stand-up comedy, the music singing tributes. I specially enjoyed the 70/80’s music on deck 16. That was my favorite. It took me back to my teenage years. The fitness center and the spa was off the chain. Fitness Center has so many and new machines. I also enjoyed a facial and acupuncture at the Spa.

Ship tip

There’s nothing bad about the Norwegian Getaway. You will never be bored on this ship. I had a blast every single day. When we were at Port the various Ports, I was so proud comparing how huge the Norwegian Getaway is to other ships at Port. I felt very safe.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5
Although it was much warm while awaiting to go on board at the Miami port, everything was very organized.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
Roatan was my very favorite . The beach was clean and absolutely beautiful. I went snorkeling and the staff on the beach was always willingly to take us to the most beautiful reefs. The security staff at the beach made us feel safe, because they watched our personal belongings while we went snorkeling and/or swimming.

Harvest Caye, Belize

The pool was very clean and relaxing. The beach was not nice during our stay, people got stung because of jellyfish.

Cozumel, Mexico

I really did not enjoy this beach. It was over crowed, the beach was dirty. The food was not good at all.
