If you have been cruising the mega ships lately, this will be a great change of pace. Though smaller, the Sun's main pool deck is among the best. The larger pool is actually large enough to swim laps, and there is plenty of room for the stage, loungers and pub tables. On nice days, they set up grills and cook chicken, burgers and hot dogs. The pool band plays several times during the day so you can enjoy the pool area all day if you choose. If you need a drink, find Jose, he will keep you in good shape.
My wife and I are veteran cruisers and have sailed 4 times on this ship,42 days, over the past 11 years. We have sailed on 4 other NCL ships and 18 different ships overall.
The entertainment on this ship is top notch. From the showroom to several of the smaller venues, there is something for everyone. We had a difficult time deciding whether to visit Craig in the Windjammer Lounge, Adams Rib in Dazzles, or Lira and the boys in the Observation Lounge. Scheduling allows you to see all three if you wish.
