What a fantastic cruise ship, I thoroughly enjoyed everything about the getaway. Specialty restaurants Cagneys and Teppanaki were the two I experienced and you won't be disappointed... We had the UBP , Bring a few singles and your bartenders will be calling you by name and expediting your order. Yes I got the coveted Beach Club Ticket $79.00 yes super exclusive and your spot is there, but after a terrific tan on my first day I didn't have any problems joining my sister and brother-in law at H2O so I never returned there more then once, but it's always nice to have options, next time I'll pass.

Don't miss the two comedians and Laurie who does an incredible Elton John and later in the week Billy Joel Tribute.. St Thomas Was Cool but Tortola is the best. Do the island tour it's only $20 bucks and the tour is 2 1/2 hours including a fantastical Beach Stop with great activities and Bars/food. Met great staff members all with smiles. Even the peeps from out of town were pretty cool 'Vegas,Missouri and Nebraska to name a few.... I read reviews everyday for two weeks prior to leaving and it was like 50/50??? I can't figure that one out,because the staff,food,shows and cabin were all kick butt special. I even put $250 deposit on NCL mid-week while on the ship for a future cruise.. Your Going To Have A BLAST!!! I Did!!!!

P.S. Getting on and off the ship was the Best I've experienced.

Cabin Review

Mid-Ship Mini-Suite with Balcony

Cabin MA

Excellent yes the balcony was smaller then I'm used to but enough space for 1 or 2 people. The bed in my room was closest to the balcony which was an added benefit. The bathroom was huge with 2 sinks and a shower that can easily fit two at the same time. Great Cabin stewart.

Port Reviews

St. Thomas

Nice port to walk around and buy rum cake and jewelry,they even have a great antiques store full of Pirate stuff. Great for the guys while the ladies are happy with their new earrings

Nassau

Went to Mckenzies for Red Snapper and conch, it's ok good to experience once,but most locals walking and eating there were a little creepy and obviously drinking to much. But the dunkin donuts has free wi-fi
