The Norwegian Sky was awesome. It was all inclusive on alcohol so that was a huge savings. It is freestyle dining so there are no assigned dinner reservations. It is a very casual experience. They do have specialty restaurants you can dine at for an additional fee. We had a blast for a short weekend getaway. The staff was awesome and the private island is beautiful! For a more casual experience I would recommend this wholeheartedly. There is an outdoor basketball court that was a huge plus for my family. The fitness center was huge with lots of equipment and they had classes as well and yoga. The food was good and the buffet always had burgers on them so that was good as well. Our stateroom was very clean. There are a lot of excursions to choose from and they range from 30 to 300 so there is something for all budgets or do your own thing. I would recommend at least getting the clamshell shades for the beach to get a little shade. It was a really easy and smooth process at the port when we arrived and left.
we had a king bed and a really comfortable chair that could pull out into a bed if needed.
We arrived early (9:30) we got to port around 10 we were able to check in and wait in the waiting area and it took about 5 minutes to get through security and the checkin process. We boarded at 11 and were able to eat lunch and tour the boat until our room was ready at 1:30.
