We had nine family members from age 4 to 64! Everyone was able to find fun things to do. It is a great first cruise or 13th cruise, as it was for me. The Pearl is a perfect mid-size ship, big enough to have plenty of amenities, but no so big that you are just a face in the crowd! We love Norwegian Cruise Line!

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We really enjoyed family dinners in the Summer Palace.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Some of our party enjoyed the basketball and soccer activities. We were unable to do the rock climbing wall due to the weather, which is not under your control, but it looked fun. I really enjoyed the origami activities. The kids liked the arcade.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Tim, the comedian, was a big hit! "Angels", the aerial performance, was beautiful and fascinating! All the shows were good and very entertaining.
Children's Programs
5 out of 5
Both of the young kids, ages 8 and 4, loved Splash Academy! The activities were well organized and they loved the "parades" and performances. Every day they couldn't wait to go to Splash Academy!
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Everyone was very friendly and helpful.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
We sailed on the Pearl in June of 2007 and really noticed the updates. Especially helpful were the USB plugs beside the over bed lights! This made it much easier to charge all of our electronic devices.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
The cabin was average in size for an inside cabin. It was comfortable and always kept clean by our wonderful cabin steward.
Ship tip
Be sure to checkout the Bridge Viewing Room on deck 11.
