Review summary

Overall we would return on.the spirit, maybe for a shorter cruise and to places we really want to visit. We did learn we prefer larger ships with more going on.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Streamlined and smooth embarkation, had a cocktail in our hand by 12.10 midday!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
We didn't go to a speciality restaurant (apart from Shogun) but the main dining rooms were better the first part of the week than the second part. Buffet had a good selection at lunchtime and shogun was delicious.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
Poor entertainment and activity on board, but ship is so much smaller than our previous cruises so maybe it was us expecting more to do than there was available.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Stage shows were ok but apart from.this it was really disappointing.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
This was great, very approachable, helpful and professional on each interaction we had.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
I know it's dated but it's one of NCL's older ships, but I love the decor theme.

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
It had all we needed, was clean and bright. Bathroom made me slime as so jazzy and 90's. Decent sized balcony.

Been before and love it here.

Alicante, Spain

1 out of 5
Did not get off as been recently and we were only there for a very short time. Made most of a quieter ship instead.

Again as smooth as when we arrived.

Interesting. We were on Spirit two years ago and enjoyed it. Getting on our first mega ship soon. Curious as to how the experience will differ.
