This was my 7th NCL cruise after traveling on Carnival, RCL and Celebrity. I find the NCL a very good value and a great cruise line if you have kids. The food is very good and we really enjoy all the comedians. They always give us a great laugh. We love the shows they do in the Atrium especially Dancing with the Norwegian Stars which is always a lot of fun.

Getting on the ship was very easy and fast. We stayed a few days ahead in Sunny Isles which always is a great idea. It makes the vacation start that much sooner and really adds to the feeling of being away. Getting off the ship was slower than most NCL ships but we weren't in a rush so we did not mind.

The ports were very nice. The private island pools were beautiful. We really enjoyed the day there. We did not get off in Costa Maya but Cozumel and Hondorus we did private resorts which were great. Mr. Sanchos and Little French Key were both very nice and a very good value for the day. Read more
