We have cruised many times, mostly on Carnival. We spent a wonderful honeymoon on Norwegian's Westward 20+ years ago. This ship is worn and tattered. Towels and linens stained and old. We were on the 4th deck and there was terrible plumbing problems. They had gutted rooms and there was sewer stench all through our deck. The carpets stained and stinking. We had sewer stench and gurgling coming up through our sink drain the whole cruise. The crew was good. The food adequate but nothing like on other cruises. I agree with the others, bar service was poor. Ports and excursions were excellent. We will not consider Norwegian when we plan our yearly cruises in the future. As I read reviews of recent cruises on this ship, I realize that NCL was aware of the sewage problems at least 4 cruises before ours and should have been taken out of service.

Port Reviews

Costa Maya

We loved the shopping area at the pier. We haggled with the local merchants and got some amazing deals. Food and drinks were a bit outrageous but all in all a great experience

Cozumel

We also loved the shopping here. We were planning on visiting a local beach we had been to before, but decided we wanted to shop instead. Some items were cheaper than in Costa Maya but we had a wonderful time

Tampa

We spent time on outskirts of Tampa with friends before cruise. The trip to the cruise port proved to be very confusing causing us to be later than we planned.
