Review summary

Just wish that it didn't feel so sales oriented, from food, to drinks, to entertainment, even had to pay room service fees (which we have never had to do before). The whole cruise seemed very impersonal and way to busy.

Entertainment

Dislike that reservations had to be made for everything in advance. Main theater shows were repetitive in comparison to the many other NCL cruises we have taken where they have a different show every night, 2 seatings a day.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
If the ship was more equipped to entertain the 3,900 people on board, the rating would be much higher. At sea days proved to be WAY to busy anywhere on the ship, but especially at the pool. The ship definitely needs more than 1 main pool....its way to crowded and small.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Cabin was much smaller than previous cruises.

Ship tip

Take a smaller ship if you are going to cruise with NCL. The larger ships feel more like a sales pitch and way to crowded.

Not much to do
Thumbs Up

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

3 out of 5
No shade provided, had to pay for an umbrella, which seems ridiculous considering the island is owned by NCL. Also, not much to do, no water slides or fresh water pools.
