Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Cabin was very small specially for it to be a balcony room. Cabin was clean to our liking.

Ship tip

Norwegian Sky needs more free activities for you to enjoy and not have to worry about paying for everything.

Sorry you didn’t enjoy it. Try cruising during Spring Break if you want more of a party atmosphere. I see lots of complaints about the buffet having the same thing every day, however, every cruise buffet I have seen for breakfast and lunch has 50-75+ items with a wide variety. You could eat 6-8 different items each day and never have the same thing twice in a week. I’m not sure what people are looking for.
