Review summary

Great trip, beautiful beaches.  Private island is not to be missed.  Also on the Nassau stop we opted to not go Atlantis and we went to the small island off the coast ...started with the letter "B" can't remember it now!  But it quiet and beautiful, nice lounge chairs with umbrellas and a nice boat ride to the island.  We always found something good to Eat on the ship at night at the sit down restaurants as well as for lunch and breakfast at the buffet.  The boat is definitely older, smaller...not a lot of bells and whistles but you certainly cannot beat what you get for the price.  Room was VERY tight with an interior room with a king bed...but who cares!!!  If you want a luxurious room and a luxurious boat this is not for you!  But if you want a great quick trip and aren't too concerned about the finishes this is a great option.  All inclusive was great...great drinks.  High end liquor always available and freely poured.  Keep in mind with the all inclusive there will b drunks!!!  The pool is small and the hot tubs are smaller so if you plan to stay on the ship during the day "the drunks" are pretty unavoidable!  However it makes for super great people watching!!!  Iif you get off everyday like we did...it's a great trip.

Very tight quarters!!! Very small showers like in an RV

Ship tip

Get off the ship and see the Bahamas islands. This ship isn't one you would necessarily want to spend all day lounging on. If you do one excursion get off on Norwegians Stirrup Cay...its free and all inclusive with some great little shops and gorgeous ocean!!

rgbenning I was on the same sailing in December and felt the same way, and then one of the friends we met on board wondered if we were the drunks that the posts would be about. You know, "there's one in every crowd, if you don't know who it is, it's probably you" syndrome. It was a great time!

I was on the ship in early December and did not find the so called drunks to be an issue on that sailing. Thank you for the well thought out and concise review. I wish all reviews were this well written and informative.
