Review summary

Overall the cruise was awesome because of all the ports. With only 2 days at sea for a 9 day cruise this was the selling point.

Service and Staff

Everyone was awesome! I did witness a situation that made me uncomfortable for 2 of the restaurant staff members. A couple asked to take a picture with 2 staff members the morning of our departure. A senior staff member had words with the 2 and they said they were just going to take a quick picture. He was upset with this and said well okay just make it quick and get back to work. That was uncalled for and does not represent the experience Norwegian promises to provide.

Cabin / Stateroom

Very clean. It was small but accommodated us comfortably.

Ship tip

The crowd is an older crowd so the entertainment lacks for passengers 30 and younger

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
Yes we did. Very disappointed we only had a few hours at this port. Somehow it was shortened by 2 hours and was the 1st time I was stressed to make it back on time. We deserve to have at least 6 hours at every port especially when you book excursions based on the longer original time at port

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

5 out of 5
Beautiful. No enough chairs with umbrella options. We were forced to back in the hot sun for hours and keep moving chairs that were shaded by palm trees
