This repo most likely the best cruise in our 11 cruises( 6 NCL).This was due to having our first suite, sailing from the home port as well as having the original UDP. As a result, We never ate at the main dining room or buffet. I ate in the suite breakfast daily, OSheehans or suite lunch or on land and specialty ever night. each specialty was heavenly especially Cagneys (4x) and Mexican 3x We ate LeBistro 3x, Moderno 2x and Tempanaki once. I booked the reservation 100 days out and only changed one on board
we had family suite 12516. Unfortunately the windows were stained. The butler told us that they were dirty later admitting that they were pernamently stained, should have been changed indrydock but the windows did not come on time. the butler was just. Ok, he would bring us snacks despite making requests to the contrary. I noticed that they just brought the same snacks around. He never brought the gummy bears or m and mms until requested. He denied there were free movies and we found on our own that they were indeed free to suite guests. he did bring breakfast room service once and a Reuben from O sheehans once, the location of the suite was nice close to elevator and quiet. The only negative is that it is on the side of the smoking area so we would have to walk on the other side to avoid smoke on the way to the pool
there seemed to be more enrichment activities than previous cruises like arts and crafts and talks on Michael Jackson, Natalie Wood etc the speaker from LA county was absolutely fantastic and his talks were packed. We also enjoyed the gym, free exercise classes and walks on the deck. The Sea days flew by.
stained windows, enjoyed the large bathroom
