Sail Date: Nov 2016
Cabin: Inside

Chose this ship because i haven't sailed on it. i have sailed,carnival, royal,and Norwegian. we chose an inside cabin, because we prefer to spend money, on other things and do not stay in cabin, much. The cabin finishes were nice, but cabin feels smaller than other cruise lines inside cabins. The sink in the cabin area on the counter is way too small. My wife and i did not like the toilet and shower, located just inside door entrance and only separated, from bed area buy a curtain. If you are laying in bed and turn on tv, you cant see tv if image is darker due to fact that the screen will not rotate down far enough, the angle is not correct.,(like if you are looking at a laptop and you have to adjust screen angle to see it clearly). The vanity seat foe the women to apply makeup etc, is obstructed by the cabinets. My wife is 5ft 1 inch and when she sat on the stool at the makeup vanity, she could not see her face unless she bent down. Lights in the room dim. With all lights on still kind of dark. The shows, we went to one. If you don't make reservation, you will not get in. I prefer to show up at the time listed and get in line. Just my 2 cents, i don't like to plan every second of my vacation. The promotional drink package is what i chose for this trip and it was well worth it. I am not a heavy drinker, but when on vacation i enjoy having drinks. Food was good, and consistent. All ships crew were great. Visited Tortola, bvi, and took a tour, independent from Norwegian, much cheaper. $25.00/per, versus Norwegian $70.00/per. St Thomas, we were only there until 130pm which was strange. Debarkation

Cabin Review

Inside

Cabin IF

Finishes were good, but layout not good. vanity for the ladies, bad. my wife is 5ft 1 inch, and sitting at vanity she could not see her face(mirror mounted under a cabinet). the toilet and the shower located just inside the door and open to rest of the room, separated by a curtain. Small sink on counter in the main room too small.
