My first cruise was twelve years ago. It was a cruise to the Caribbean out of New Orleans. It was amazing. I prayed the ship would break down and we would have to stay at sea a little longer. The food and service was impeccable. Unforgettable Memories were made.
This was my first NCL cruise. Big difference. I was quite ready to get back to New Orleans and disembark the ship. I was disappointed in the food. I could compare it to an medeoker all you can eat buffet. This includes the fine dining and the Steakhouse.
Service? Maybe it is because the tips are set. The steward was just okay. Nothing about him will be remembered. The wait staff the same. Forget refills. Never happend without waiting and begging.
The room was nice. More storage than I would ever have dreamed of. B
I was not impressed with our ports of call. I wanted to be able to just play on the beach. I hated how shop owners kept harnessing you to come in to their store.
