Review summary

Always love Cruising. The opportunity to have fun and discover new experiences and meet new people is amazing. It is what you make of it. Make the most of it!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Couldn't have been easier or better. New " face recognition" system speeds up everything.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Comp Main Dining Rooms were #1. The 2 Specialty, a little disappointing compared to past experiences although very good. Buffets were good and offered many varieties of food. One night for dinner however did not appeal to us. "Spanish Night"

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Older folks enjoyed relaxing and some of the funny entertaining shows.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Didn't do the Stage shows but again from past experiences noticed less "live" entertainment vs. DJ. The Live Entertainment (Pool, Piano Lounge, etc.) was very excellent.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Norwegian always employs people that go above and beyond! Just ask, they deliver.

Ship Quality

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was perfect for us. Small to maneuver around, s-m-a-l-l bathroom but just a place to recoup from our excursions and sleep. Cleanliness always.

Ship tip

"Freestyle" means just that. It's up to you to have fun but Norwegian will assist in any way.

Ports of call

George Town, Grand Cayman

4 out of 5
Nice port. A little "commercial". Swam with the Sting Rays. Fantastic!

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

3 out of 5
Felt a little intimidated with a lot of security outside of the dock area. Took an excursion to ride horses 45 min. away at a resort. Nice resort. Again, security guards with guns.

Harvest Caye, Belize

5 out of 5
Been there before on another Cruise. Great port. Took the same tour again. The excursion (boat) was too overbooked and at times scary with obese people tilting the boat. Did however finally get fantastic pics of the MONKEYS!

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Better than I could imagine for Mexico.. Nice port. Took the OFF-ROAD BUGGY ESCAPE. Fun except it was more ROAD than OFF. 50 mph driving around the city was SCARY!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Tags? We dragged off. GOLD MEMBERS and had TRANSFERS. Got on the first bus to the Airport! Thank goodness.
