Sail Date: Apr 2014

This was our 5th cruise on NCL. We toughly enjoyed it. Itinerary (excluding embarkation and debarkation port) was such that we only visited two ports twice during the 24 days. Did not matter as it allowed us to do different tours in each port. We continue to be impressed by the cleanliness and maintenance of their ships and cabins The variety of the entertainment was excellent but given this was 3 BB cruises some shows did repeat.All acts were top notch.

The one disappointment continues to be the food quality in the main dinning rooms and the buffets.It has slipped in our opinion over the past few years. Considering this was 3 BB cruises the menus repeated.

We purchased the specialty restaurant package which was not only a good value but gave us access to higher quality food and more intimate and quieter surroundings. Steakhouse, Bistro, and Jasmine are our favorites. If you like a glass of wine with your meal then I recommend buying one of the wine packages offered (25% saving). While they don't include $75 + wines they are definitely a cut above the usual house wines offered.

Cabin Review

Excellent size cabin with nice size balcony particularly for a 24vday cruise. Very quiet as it was on Starboard side directly under the library. This is also the deck the bridge is on and again a little less traffic.
