Traveled with children

I recently returned from this cruise with my husband (41), daughter (16), and son (14). The islands were beautiful and shouldn't be missed, but if there were any other cruise line in town, I would choose it over this one. We have sailed 5 times on Celebrity (our personal favorite), Princess, and Costa, and NCL didn't come close to any of them. I felt that the trip was filled with extreme highs (island-centered) and extreme lows (ship-centered), which I will detail below.

Embarkation/Debarkation - one of the only compliments I can give this ship - absolutely outstanding in both speed and ease

Food - I didn't expect much having read other reviews, but still, it didn't even meet my low expectations. There were two or three nights when I didn't eat dinner, either because the selections were so limited or the food was inedible. By the time we realized how poor the dining room food was, all of the specialty restaurants were booked. In a way, I didn't care so much (fewer calories to work off), but it was such a disappointment after the excellent dining we have experienced on other ships.
