Great cruise to bad I was sick for most of it. Found out I like smaller ships more then the mega ships now on to the next cruise.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Fast and easy. Due to line length was actually put in priority check in which made it so much faster.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
The Main Dining Rooms were terrific! Had breakfast at Savor and Taste almost everyday and service and food was excellent. Manhattan was delicious had dinner there twice.
The Local: not the best food for fish and chips or pasta left a lot to be desired.
Food Republic: Just went to try it not my favorite type of food but service was excellent.
Ocean Blue: OMG! Was the food delicious Salmon was perfectly cooked perfect size. Surf and turf was also delicious. Service was excellent they even sang Happy Birthday to my mom. A surprise the Food Republic hostess added to the reservation!
Cagney’s was also good. We did have a time constraints due to Elements but food was good as well as service just wish we had more time.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Only went to Spice H2O it was great no screaming children. Didn’t participate in other areas since I was ill most of the cruise.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Footloose was great had me dancing in my seat. Elements was a lacking although I did enjoy the farewell performance from Captain and crew at the end of the show.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
All around the ship was excellent service. The only service problems I had were with our cabin steward. She did not empty the complete minibar as requested. She took out everything but the alcohol. As well as never put the bedding away for the sofa bed. We also had to ask her to pull down the Pullman bed which she thought was funny.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Hardly saw a mess sit for long the crew was always on top of it. One thing to recommend bring hand lotion washy washy happy happy is at all food areas with both sink stations or hand sanitizer which dries out the hands.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Right above the nightclub the Beatles played wasn’t to bad except for an hour or so at night. When we missed the show we would go to our room and listen to it. Size was good just wish there was a sitting area besides the couch and a larger balcony for 4 people to enjoy at the same time.
Ship tip
If you have mobility issues check your shore excursions to make sure that they are something you can due NCL.com said a shore excursion could be done as a Level 1 but it was a level 2 and a person in our party had to stay on the bus the whole time.
I too thought Footloose was great. I likes the seafood restaurant too but am surprised you liked it better than Cagneys. We were again blown away by Cagneys and just were in love with the view at Ocean Blue.
