This was our 2nd cruise with NCL. We traveled with our extended family last year on the Getaway. We had a mini-suite and an inside cabin last year. This year it was just 4 of us, (2 adults + 14yo, 11yo) so we opted for 2 balcony rooms next to each other.
Check in was easy. We got tot the port around 11 AM and we were on the ship by 12.
The rooms were ready after lunch. I was initially told that I couldn't have the connecting balcony partition opened but after speaking to an officer in guest services on day 5 it was done.
This was a starboard side cabin. The bed was by the window. The balcony was a nice size but the cabin is narrower than on older ships. There are USB charging ports next to the bed.
There is a stall shower which is fine. The mini-suites have a full size shower.
I would stay in the same cabin again but for the eastern Caribbean sailing I would chose the port side.
We charted a boat and went to Sandy Spit and Jost Van Dyke
We charted a boat and went snorkeling in St. John's
We went to Cabbage beach and rented a wave runner
lots to do
