Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Standard cruise food in the Garden Cafe. Very nice Outdoor Cafe with a lot of tables to set outside at the back od the ship to eat. Ate breakfast in the Palace dinning room, for dinner the Palace and Crossing dinner rooms the menu was just about the same they did have a very good fries flounder dish. Cagney's Steak was up charge was very good had a surf & turf with an 8oz stake for $25.00 which I don't think is to bad. Tried the Le Bistro there French resturant it was ok just not for us. They also had a Sushi Bar and an Italian which we didi not tried.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

We were on the 10 level room 0030 VERY SMALL only 1 US plug in the cabin. The outlet in the bathroom did not work so I had to dry my hair in the main cabin. There were 2 USB ports on the lights above the bed.

Ports of call

Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

About 24 grass hut shops just as you get off the ship with a large pool with 2 bars very cute and relaxing.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5

Went to get our tags it set up by time 8 am 8:15am 8:30am up to 9:15am so I picked the 9:15 so we could eat and take our time we were done and ready to go at 8:15 how ever because I picked 9:15 that when they take the luggage off the ship so next time I am taking the early time my luggage can wait for me.

Thank you for the rewiew. The plug in the bathrooms are only for mens razors. You have to dry your hair at the desk where they keep the hair dryer. Good to know about the plugs. We have been on several NCl ships and charging ports are different. We are going from larger class ships to the Sky. It is much smaller but excited to try a smaller class ship.
