Overall very disappointing on so many levels and would definitely try to avoid cruising with NCL

Embarkation

5 out of 5
best part of the trip--quick and easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
food was subpar at best

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
fitness center was split in multiple rooms and only one room had a view of the sea

Entertainment

2 out of 5
million dollar quartet was the only good show--all other entertainers were average at best

no kids

Service and Staff

2 out of 5
cabin steward was great but guest services always had a huge line and not friendly--shop clerks also not friendly

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
very poorly designed--no midship elevators and casino in the middle of the ship open to atrium where you could smell smoke

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
standard cabin, clean, basic no frills

That’s sad we have sailed the Getaway multiple times and loved it. Service was great and the atmosphere was awesome. Guess things must have went downhill post Covid. We were actually on this ship when the Covid lock downs started and lived thru the dreaded effects immediately after returning home. Getting ready for our first post Covid cruise next month on the Encore and hope to have the same atmosphere and service we were used to on the Getaway.

Research of the ship and ports prior to booking is important.
