My wife and I were on the 11 day Southern Caribbean Sun cruise of December 11th and had a great time. We have been on 20+ cruises with several different lines. Was our 3rd cruise on NCL and 2nd on the Sun. It is an older ship, and not as big as many we have been on, but we prefer the smaller ships, and they maintain it very well. We have grown very fond of the freestyle mode promoted by NCL.

The crew was always very cheerful, polite, and helpful. We are amazed that they can always seem like they are enjoying themselves. Iain Bagshaw was the cruise director, and was very personable when you ran into him around the ship. He was also a magician, and on one of the last sea days put on a magic show in the afternoon in the theatre, which was actually pretty good.

We really enjoy the Great Outdoors area on the back of the ship for breakfast and lunch when we didn't go to the dining room. Great spot outside with tables in sun or shade, and a buffet area that isn't ever crowded like the main buffet inside. We also enjoyed going up to the Observation Lounge in the front of the ship for a quiet place in the afternoon with great views. Read more
