Review summary

I should have done my homework. I love NCL and have done several cruises in the past with them. If I compare it to other cruises with them I would rate it as fair.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Had a snag getting on, we had to do a $75 dollar covid test that was imposed on NCL that morning.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Hit and miss with food, but the NCL staff was great

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Good

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Should have done my homework. Because of all the ports and long stays on them. Wasn't enough shows. Wouldn't do that particular cruise again. Missed two shows because of slow service in dining room and specialty dining. And never got a chance to see it because one was only on one time through the cruise the other was only one twice so never saw them.

Children's Programs

We traveled 3 couples no children

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Everyone was great

Ship Quality

2 out of 5

Wasn't crazy about the ship itself. Didn't like the store being closed the whole time do to renovation??? Clean and very well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

Why did you have to pay $75 for a covid test?I assume it was because you were going to Bermuda.They tell you Bermuda still makes you take a covid test.It seems the only port you went to was Florida.I know it's disappointing to miss ports but it is hurricane season

Thamks for your review. Even the cruise lines have lost patience with Bermuda's Covid testing and money grabbing Travel Authorization requirements.
