Great cruise!

I really enjoyed this cruise on the NCL Sky. From check-in at the pier, to going through customs at the end, it was mostly smooth sailing. We arrived at the pier around 11:20 (check-in time 11-11:30), dropped our bags with the porter and got in line. The check-in line was long, but constantly moving, and we really didn't wait long. We were on the ship within a half hour. Definitely one of my speedier check-in experiences. Rooms were ready about 1:30, and our bags were delivered soon after. I was shocked how quickly they got delivered. We had a mid-ship oceanview/porthole stateroom. It wasn't the biggest stateroom I've had, but plenty big for two adults, and it was very clean and comfortable. 

There was a really good mix of people on the cruise age-wise. There were not a lot of children onboard (end of April and wasn't spring break weeks anymore). The all-inclusive drinks are great. While people certainly indulged, I never once felt like anyone was out of hand or too sloppy.

I really liked the pool deck/area. I thought that it was more than sufficient for the size of the ship. We were always able to find loungers in the shade (plenty in the sun too). The pool was never too crowded, and I really liked the separate pool for "adults only."

Food throughout the cruise was good. Nothing earth-shattering, but perfectly acceptable. One minor complaint, is the service in the dining rooms was hit or miss. We went around the same time each night and alternated between the two main dining rooms each night. The first two nights, the service was great and very quick. The second two nights, service was extremely slow, but the dining rooms didn't feel that full and there were plenty of waiters, so we just don't know why. 

I thought the entertainment onboard was ok. The shows we went to were fine, and the comedy show was great. I thought it was kind of strange that the show each night only had one seating (9:30pm). Again, nothing spectacular, but I don't necessarily go on a cruise for the shows so I wasn't upset.

Our cruise stopped in Freeport, Nassau, and Great Stirrup Cay (NCL's island) in the Bahamas. Freeport and Nassau are just ok IMO; we got off each morning to do a little shopping but didn't do any excursions and enjoyed a less-crowded ship. Great Stirrup Cay was our favorite stop. It was a great beach day, the facilities on the island are great, and tendering over was easy.

Overall, I really enjoyed myself and would absolutely go on this ship again.
