Review summary

Overall it was a great cruise. Plenty of activities on sea days. Could of offered more on port days for those staying on board or returning early. Simon the cruise director and his staff were all amazing! The buffet needed more food choices. We ended up just eating elsewhere. Also 6 ports on a 9 night cruise is probably a little much. Not much time for relaxing.

Embarkation

Food and Dining

MDR was great. Cagneys was amazing like always. This however was not a good buffet cruise. In 8 NCL cruises the Pearl had the least food selection on the buffet and what there was to choose from was not good.

Did the electric swan tour. It was a great boat ride around the island.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
We walked the ropes bridge above the port. Tons of birds and great views. Only 12.00 per person! Money well spent!

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Delayed pulling into the port so we got off 2 hours later than normal. Book flights accordingly as I think this may be a frequent problem.
