Review summary

If you want fun, choose another cruise. There was so little attention paid to activities and entertainment that it made the cruise feel longer than it was while at the same time feeling unsatisfied and disappointed with the time onboard. Food was the worst I've experienced on a cruise and the dessert was, more than once, inedible. I will be sticking to Royal Caribbean and Celebrity Cruises in the future. Thoroughly disappointed with my first time on Norwegian.

Not much to do other than pool and gym

Entertainment

1 out of 5

This part of the cruise was about as awful as I've ever been on. Norwegian is definitely not a cruise to go on for entertainment. They might as well be a comfortable ferry service.

Ship tip

Unless you're just cruising to relax in the room, find a newer ship with more things to do onboard because the Key West day is only 5 hours in port so most of the time you're stuck on the ship with nothing to do but listen to a terrible comedian.

Key West is amazing but we didn't get there until 1pm and had to be back on the ship by 6pm. What a waste of an entire morning with nothing to do on the ship except lay out by the pool

Wow sorry to read such a sad review, I hope NCL is reading this and taking notes. This is is my favorite ship on the line, I was on it twice last year and had the time of my life. The comedian was the worse, but the the rest of the cruise was excellent. Better luck next time and happy cruising.
