The Ship is in excellent condition. The crew is up to NCL standards in work ethics and friendliness. The food is excellent and there are so many choices to choose from. The Palace has Great service and the food was excellent. The same goes for the Buffet. Cagney's Steak House was Very good there were 4 of us for dinner. Everyone's steak was great, I order the Lamb it was just okay. La Cocina is not one of my favorites. I have tried it on serval NCL ships and was never impressed with the taste or quality, not to say you won't like it, I just don't. The bands were just okay and that goes for the shows as well, they were lacking here, I hope someone in NCL is reading this. I cruise between NCL (being platinum) and Royal Caribbean (being Diamond) on a regular bases, with NCL being my favorite line to cruise on. Would I cruise on the Sky again, yes, should you, yes again. So if you have 5 days to spare with a choice of cruise lines to go on, pick NCL. YOUR CRUISE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT, regardless of what you read, so happy cruising!
Embarkation

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The main dinning room service, food taste and temperature was excellent. The service staff were friendly and attentive. The area itself was kept nice and clean.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
The Pool deck can get crowded on a sea day, but this is to be expected. I'm from Florida, so most of the time I wont go to the pool area on a sea day so the people who need it most can enjoy the sun day at sea.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
The main shows that I saw in the theater were just okay, nothing to write home about. The Sky seem to be lacking in musical entertainment. The NCL Sun had 5 GREAT bands, the Sky had 3 bands and they were just at the Okay mark, I guess it could have been worst. I'm a dancer and I like like my music.
Children's Programs
no kids
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The service staff is excellent, they are friendly, they will chit chat and always have a smile for you. A really hard work crew and the ship was clean and presentable at all times of the day and night.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The Ship was refurbished in 2019 and looks great and the crew works hard to keep it looking at it's best. If you want a nice smaller ship this is it.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
It's a ships cabin, they are smaller than what you are use too. Remember you are only there for a week or less so get use to it. I don't want to hear any complaints about size, if you need big, then get a suite.
Great place to visit and get your feet in the sand and take a dip. That is if they can get you there. Sometimes weather and sea does not permit the stop due to tendering.
What can you say about the Bahamas. It's a stop that permits you to get your feet on dry land. There is a beach, Junkaroo beach, you can walk to, just past the new Margarita Ville Hotel. You can see it from the ship while in port. It's about a ten minute walk.
