Review summary

The trip was great. We were very busy and tired. Hawaii is beautiful and it was really great to just cruise and get a sample of the islands. We heard a lot of complaints from fellow passengers that we felt were unfounded or they had unreasonable expectations. No it was not perfect but it was a great experience. The crew did everything they could to make our trip better. FYI Ncl has comment cards, if a crew member does something nice, make an effort and get their name and write a comment card. It helps them in numerous ways. As a former crew member, those notes mean a lot. The cruising the Napoli coast was just beautiful. I hope I can do this trip again.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We thought the food was great. Even the buffet was good food (better than most other cruise ship buffets we have experienced- comparing apples to apples)

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We were so tired from the excursions we did not do any activities. They did offer some things that looked fun though.

Entertainment

To tired

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
The staff did not proactively interact but if you spoke to them they were very friendly

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Okay. Somewhere between 3 and 4 stars. They are understaffed and it shows. Ncl would be better charging another $100 a person and adding more staff.

Ship tip

Go to the back bar at the rear of the buffet. Beautiful view and you can get a drink much much faster
