Sail Date: Jan 2017
Cabin: Family Suite

This was a get together with girls from the past, for total relaxation. Our halfway point to meet was New Orleans and we sailed from there. We lucked into a huge bargain on a Suite (12512) & thoroughly enjoyed the space & extra's it provided. 3 ladies in a room, and no one had to sleep with another, lots of storage, butler & in room coffee pot. Butler delivered daily afternoon horsedouvers.

We had the 4 specialty restuarant package as well as the ultimate beverage package. For specialty restaurants we picked Teppanyaki (great), Le Bistro (not a french person, but it was okay), Moderno (brazilian steakhouse, way too much food, best items were the sirlion & pineapple), and finally Cagneys (who can go wrong with a 16oz ribeye). All the specialty restaurants try to hit you up for additional tips for the waiters even though you already paid extra to get in there. We only tipped at Cagneys, because the waiter was so exceptional.

Driank package was good, BUT - NCL is excluding bottled waters from the included items?? Bingo costs are outragous for what they payout, they seem to be keeping 80% of the monies for their pockets? Deal or No Deal was reasonable & I even got called to stage.

Cabin Review

Family Suite

Cabin SJ

Huge cabin, great service - even tough attendant was great felt he was doing too many rooms.

Only used the butler once to get us into the Bamboo restaurant.....he got us a 5:45 time, when phone calls only came up with 8:15 time slots available to general public? Would do a suite again if I could get same bargain.

Port Reviews

New Orleans

Stayed at Harrahs, save your money, no luck at the casino & limited breakfast venues.

Costa Maya

Thought this was a great shopping center at the port, and vendor would negotiate prices.
