1st let me start by saying what an awesome staff there is on the NCL Gem. I've been on quite a few cruises and I NeVer remember anyone's name. Well Jenny, Kyle, Krazy Kristine, Tom, Carlos and Zahid. they have made this a special anniversary cruise and we hope they are still on board when we bring the rest of the family.

Saturday NYC Embarkation:

We get to the pier at 1105am, (a little later than we expected) however everything ran smoothly. We put our luggage through the machines, went over to VIP check in where you can see the ship through the glass behind the agents. We went to the VIP room where we me our concierge for the week and waited for maybe all of 10 minutes before we were escorted to the Star Bar to drop off our carry ons before we were escorted for lunch at Cagneys. OMG we were spoiled from the moment we got on.

Cabin Review

Penthouse with Large Balcony

Cabin SE

The room: was a really nice size we were at the bow of the ship just under the bridge my husband likes to be in the aft but this was great I loved the views and you can see everything ahead before you get to it. The balcony was a nice size. The room was bigger than expected. We had dinner from the main dining room with a nice white tablecloth in our suite, it was our first time and it was amazing. We are now suite spoiled and my hubby says he will not book anything but a suite.
