Not enough activities and games were boring or childish. Been on other cruises with much better entertainment staff. Better variety of activities.

Casino

We spent most of our time on ship here. Servers and dealers we great!

Entertainment

Did not like DJ ReRe. Topaz was a great band! Wished they would have played longer than 45 minutes.

Children's Programs

Did not take children on the cruise

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Okay for the most part. Didn't feel the extra personal touch received on other cruises.

Ship Quality

Ship itself was nice

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5

Carpet was spotted. Bathroom was very small. Not a lot of storage in bathroom. Balcony was nice size

Ship tip

Choose Norwegian! Unless you just like to sit around and go to bed early, don't go on this ship.

Cozumel, Mexico

3 out of 5

Did the Mayan ruins tour of Tulum. It was extremely hot! Did not appreciate the tour guide Juan's attitude, selling approach and constant lecturing. He was actually rude! Did visit nice restaurant on our own in Tulum. Had drinks, chips, guacamole. Thank goodness because the beach and buffet provided by excursion was horrible! Couldn't even go into the water.
