It was a wonderful cruise. Everything went smoothly, and I can't wait for my next one.
Embarkation
3 out of 5
Check in was quick. Boarding was slower than normal due to a thorough cleaning of the ship. They had an outbreak of the stomach bug on the previous cruise.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The food was very good especially the lunches in the main dining room on sea days. I only tried a couple of things that I didn't care for.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
It was your typical onboard activities like any other cruise.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
The entertainment was varied which I liked. They had production shows, a comedian, a magician, etc. Something for everyone.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The cruise ship employees always work hard to make your time onboard the best that it can be.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
This is an older ship in the fleet that will be refurbished soon. It was certainly nice enough for my taste, but it didn't come with all the bells and whistles of the newer ships. The ship was extremely clean.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
It was a normal inside cabin. The shower was the old traditional cruise ship shower since the ship hasn't been refurbished.
Ship tip
If they do not do away with the Sports Bar during the refurb, you order your food next to the bar instead of at the bar or at the table. Like most if not all of the NCL ships these days, the Garden Cafe offers a crepe station during dinner.
This was an embarkation port for us so I didn't tour it. It is a small town that I didn't like the looks of. One couple that I met stayed there several nights before the cruise and loved it.
