Norwegian Sky 4-days Bahamas cruise Miami - Freeport - Nassau - Great Stirrup Cay - Miami December 08, 2008 - December 12, 2008

We, for the most part, did have a good time. Having read previous reviews, many negative, we were skeptical of what to expect ... so "plan for the worst & hope for the best" became my motto going in. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on one's perspective, we had such a dismal experience on the Carnival Celebration (4-day Bahamas cruise) last December that we figured NCL could only be better.

For the benefit of those reading this review we were in a category "BA" cabin (#0067, balcony aft) which slept 3 persons ~ we had ours configured as a Queen bed & sofabed. (Dogstar Jr. slept soundly on the sofabed but an adult would definitely find it less comfortable than a proper bed.) Ours was an adequately sized room for a short cruise with bright decor, comfortable bedding, clean & efficient lavatory with shower, spacious balcony, tv with plenty of channel selections, stocked refrigerator, constantly replenished ice bucket, courtesy fruit basket upon request, loaner bathrobes in closet, in-room electronic safe, & three small in-closet drawers with additional storage space in the two nightstands.

Cabin Review

Mid-Ship Balcony

Cabin BA

adequately sized room for a short cruise with bright decor, comfortable bedding, clean & efficient lavatory with shower, spacious balcony, tv with plenty of channel selections, stocked refrigerator, constantly replenished ice bucket, courtesy fruit basket upon request, loaner bathrobes in closet, in-room electronic safe, & three small in-closet drawers with additional storage space in the two nightstands. Can hear periodic scraping of chairs from Garden Cafe aft deck area above cabin, usually in the morning around breakfast time then later in the evening when staff tidying up.
