Review summary

I love Bermuda and I love cruising. I'm happy to be doing both. As far as the ship and food, etc, not the best experience. We went with another couple who have cruised Carnival twice in the past. They said they won't sail on NCL again based on this experience.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

Food was just plain not good. Mostly ate at the main dining rooms and buffet. The few specialty restaurants weren't much if any better. Drinks were bland and simple with no presentation. One stand out meal at the main dinning room was gross and I didn't even eat more than a few bites.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Entertainment

4 out of 5

The Funky (I forgot the rest of their name) band that played through out the ship was the best band I have ever seen at sea.

Children's Programs

Didn't use

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Just didn't seem as attentive and eager as the staff on other cruises and cruise lines I have been on. Even less so than I am used to on NCL usually.
