Review summary

Overall a very relaxing and enjoyable cruise. The food was very good and there were several varied options to choose from in each restaurant. The ship was very clean and updated. This was our second Norwegian Cruise and we found the staff to be a bit less friendly than the staff on the Norwegian Star. Our cabin steward was a bit aggressive and told us we were not allowed to keep the “Do Not Disturb” on our cabin because he HAS to do inventory each day. We prefer to not have our room made up each day but felt pressured to allow him access to our room. There were occasions where the “Do Not Disturb” was on and he still entered to put paperwork on our bed instead of outside the door like other cabins.

Solid review. I'm sorry you had to experience that with your room steward.

Appreciate your detailed summary. I’m not a fan of ignoring the “do not disturb” sign. Glad you enjoyed your cruise in spite of it.

Interesting about the “DO NOT DISTURB” sign. I do know on some cruise lines if the sign remains up for 3 days security will be notified and do a welfare check. Glad you had a wonderful cruise otherwise. Thank you for your review.
