Cruise Critique

The Norwegian Sun is old and needs a complete gut job, not just a new carpet and nine days in dry dock. The sofa bed in the stateroom is hard as a park bench and needs replacing. All mattresses need replacing and so do all chairs in the public areas and lounges. The bathrooms in each state room need to be totally replaced. The AC/heat in the aft staterooms does not work very well. We would never recommend going on the Norwegian Sun to any location.

We had major plumbing problems in our stateroom. We came back from an excursion to find the toilet flooded. Someone came in to fix problem. Later we had more flooding which extended into the hall and our closet. Clean up took three days to dry carpet and eliminate smell. We were given an interior room to sleep in because it took so long to repair and dry out the damaged carpet. We should have been given a different stateroom immediately. We had to complain at the desk to even get another room. We were not the only ones with this problem.

Port Reviews

Punta Arenas

The port had good restaurants. Highly recommend the mango smoothie.

Lima

Arranged private tour which was excellent

Puerto Quetzal (Antigua)

The tour of the city is a must. Good history. Interesting Buildings and volcanoes.

Cabo San Lucas

The port is very touristy with a lot of shops and a few restaurants.
