Very similar to the Norwegian Getaway.  Not sure, but the balcony felt larger.  No complaints.  Was on Deck 9, walked down to 6-7-8 all the time.  Very central to all of the ship fun.  Room was clean, the steward was friendly.  The view was great.  Slept like a baby on this ship.  LOVE that there are USB ports in the lamps above the bed, makes it easy to plug in your phone or a small fan, etc.

Miami is a beautiful port. Leaving Miami provides some great scenery.  The port is BUSY and expensive.  Cost us $140 to park for seven days.

Miami

Loved the jet boat ride. It’s a gorgeous island and you’ll rarely see water as beautiful as it is there. 
We did the Screamin Eagle Jet Boat Excursion by Captain Nautica in St. Thomas. 5 Stars, highly recommend! http://www.viwatersports.com/screamin-eagle/ Lots of fun if you like a fast and furious boat ride around the island.   We had a blast with all of the stops and spins.

To be honest, I’ve never heard of Tortola before and was kind of shocked to find out that this was one of the stops.  I’m super glad that it was.  We did the Norman Island Snorkel Excursion in Tortola by Sail Caribbean Divers. 5 Stars. Highly recommend! http://www.sailcaribbeandivers.com/ 
There were two 45+ minute stops on this excursion and a half hour boat ride to and from the excursion.  Stop one had three beautiful caves and the other had a bay that has a small beach and a bar.  We never stopped snorkeling, so I can’t say much about the beach.  Both stops were so beautiful that it was surreal.  The staff from Sail Caribbean Divers were incredibly friendly.  There was plenty of time to chat with them to and from Norman Island.  This is some of the best snorkeling we’ve ever done.  By far beats out the RCCL private islands, Turks and Caicos and Nassau snorkeling that we’ve done.

My wife and I jokingly refer to Nassau as the Bahamas Rest Stop.  Everyone stops there.  It’s always cool to see so many other ships.  We opted to not leave the ship on this day, we’ve been to Nassau many times and it’s a lot of fun.  The Escape was so much fun we spent the day on board and pretty much had the ship to ourselves.

Nassau

The Escape was so much fun we spent the day on board and pretty much had the ship to ourselves.This is the second time that I've ever been on a cruise and immediately wanted to get back on and go again, both times it’s been on a Norwegian ship.
