Review summary

Nice and relaxing trip for us, first cruise after Covid restrictions.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth. Normal wait until ship ready, but once boarding group called, walked right on.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We really enjoyed all the meals in mjr (Taste, Savor, and Tropicana). Buffet was good, think more variety in the past.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
I really enjoyed the escape challenge, the ropes course and water slides. We purchased the Vibe, but did not use much due to cold sea days. Also, the same folks that reserve chairs by the pool do the same in vibe. Saw many chairs and umbrellas 'reserved' with towels, but no people in sight. We probably will not purchase vibe access again, but that is our personal preference.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Enjoyed all the shows we saw.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room steward was great, and the wait staff we interacted with were very friendly.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
We missed the observation lounge from other NCL ships, but knew that when booking. Otherwise, really enjoyed everything.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Same as other balcony cabins of the breakaway class. Nice storage and plenty of room for the two of us.

Ship tip

Book main shows as soon as possible on website. I booked 120 days out and we saw both main shows: Burn the Floor and Million Dollar Quartet.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5

Port Canaveral, Florida

4 out of 5

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Smoothing disembarkation we have had. Line started early for walk off, but once moving, walked right off through customs.
