The cruise highlight was the transit through the Panama Canal. To experience the operation of this wonder of engineering was exceptional. Being able to cruise with NCL made the experience that much more enjoyable. Even before the cruise ended we were already planning for our next cruise.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
The entire process was smooth and efficient. However, we walked right by the suite check-in area. The signage was not very prominent and even after showing our itinerary to various people we still ended up in the normal check-in area. The agent took care of all our needs and even escorted us to the proper area.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Although we didn't partake in the main dining rooms the specialty restaurants were always welcoming with great service and delicious food. The buffets were always very presentable and the food tasty. The best part was being able to go back for seconds or even thirds.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
We purchased a Thermal Spa pass for the cruise and very glad that we did as it provided a relaxing time away from friends and family when needed.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
We attended only one show, Vegas, and enjoyed the progression of music and entertainment through the years.
Children's Programs
No children
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
We were well taken care of in all aspects of service. If we had any questions or concerns they were answered quickly and efficiently. There was never a time when we felt we needed something and no one was available.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The sleep, eat, play design was very advantageous as all were well within reach. All areas of the ship were well taken care of. It was very comforting to see daily sanitation of the handrails and door knobs.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
We were very surprised at the roominess of the cabin as the pictures did not clearly reflect the size. It allowed for privacy as well as a common area to gather.
Thanks for taking the time to share your review of the Norwegian Star. Glad you had a wonderful time on your cruise. We loved our Panama Canal cruise on the NCL Star!
