Review summary

A very enjoyable experience. Would use this Norwegian again. I cant say that for all cruise lines. Always something to do and food was fantastic. Staff was wonderful.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
The line was way too long, but everyone was helpful and friendly.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
All of the sit down restaurant food was outstanding and most of the buffet food was great. Drinks were very good as well and lots of different venues to enjoy them. Loved the ocean view seating at the Crossings Restaurant.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Pools were nice but of course overcrowded, very nice fitness center, did not have much of a chance to try the other things like golf, and such.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Very high energy and fun. But kind of repetitive all based on music. I did love the comedian and he gets 5 stars risqué enough to be funny without being overly raunchy and no vulgarity.

Children's Programs

We had no children with us.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Everyone was friendly and helpful.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Everything was very clean, Color scheme was cheerful and upbeat without being too wild and noisy.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Just average. A little cramped but room for a small couch and an small desk. Bathrooms were clean and enough room to take care of business. We had an inside stateroom.

Ship tip

Use the sit down restaurants rather than the buffet. Find the lounge for tranquility when it all gets to chaotic.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

4 out of 5
Gotta love Iconic South Beach.

HAVANA, CUBA

4 out of 5
Definitely a go see location. Somewhat frozen in History. But not something you will need to go back too. Don't be afraid of dark streets because they are all dark at night, but generally safe. Eat at the private restaurants, not the state owned ones. Definitely be sure to get to the Tropicana Show. It was fabulous.

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

4 out of 5
Its good for what it was meant to be. A place to sit in the sun and drink. Snorkeling is average but not magnificent. Plenty of lounge chairs for every one.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Was a bit faster than embarkation but still plan on at least 30 to 45 minutes. Be sure to tote your own luggage so you can go whenever you want.
