NCL is an older and more experienced line, and this history pays off in a great overall cruise! This trip, the Cruise Director (Tiara, an American) was the best ever -- struck an excellent balance of information and humor without crossing the "too stupid" line that many others have.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Early schedule time paid off - great boarding process.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Not quite up to earlier experience on this ship, but specialty restaurants are top notch.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Spa membership is still a good idea for sea days.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Entertainment in the main theatre was very good - but the last night "featured" what had to be the worst Elvis ever... not played for laughs, though he tried, just not good.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Very good overall service experience, from stewards through dining room staff.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Not one of the newer ships, but very well maintained with great attention to cleanliness and safety.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The biggest surprise was presence of a bath tub. Much harder to enter/exit than a shower,
definitely not, in our opinion, a plus. Otherwise, great space and lots of storage cabinets/drawers.
Having seen Chaccoban (sp?), we opted for Kahoonlich Mayan ruins - EXCELLENT, earlier site (though a long bus ride), VERY interesting and less commercialized.
