We had a really nice time on the NCL Getaway last week. We loved having the Ultimate Drink plan but if we would have had to pay for the plan we would have lost money. We were thankful that we purchased the 6 night Ultimate Dining plan, the choice of restaurants were nice and the food was much better in the Specialty Restaurants. Our Favorite 2 restaurants were Ocean Blue and Cagney's Steakhouse. The ship was extremely clean and the staff was all over the place making sure it stayed that way. The rope course was really fun, we loved the mini bowling alleys, we played every night, never crowded. Osheehan's Pub in the middle of the ship was the perfect late night hangout place, music, food, drinks, and entertainment. Plenty of cool bars, and a lot of activity.

We loved that there was no formal night like we had on the RCCL Oasis, just don't love to get so formal on vacation. We ate on the first night at Taste, one of there 3 main dining rooms, so much Better than a typical Main dinning room on other lines of ships. Felt and looked like a real restaurant, the food was good but did not compare to many of the Specialty restaurants.

The Pools were a disappointment. Extremely crowded, Very Small, and only 2. The Main pool and Hot tubs were Adults only, so that left us out since we were with our kids, the other had no seating around it with 90% of kids in it and it was pretty much shaded by the water park. When we were on RCCL Oasis, the 4 pools spread out the crowds by them and all could be used by all ages which was nice. Really like the water slides went on 3 out of 5. the Blue and Green Free Fall ones looked way too scary and you couldn't even have a ring on. I can't get my ring off so I was saved and out of luck, lol. Read more
