My husband and I celebrated our 29th wedding anniversary on May 23rd so we made this cruise to Bermuda our second honeymoon. We traveled to the port via train from Pennsylvania, caught a cab and checked in. We arrived at the port about 12:30 and were on board within a half hour. Our stateroom which was cabin 5809, an inside cabin on deck 5 was ready so we dropped off our carry on's and went to the Garden Cafe' for lunch. Note: The inside cabins on this ship are the smallest we have had and storage space is extremely limited. No problem finding a table, but we are vegetarians and it was not easy finding much to eat since they put meat in basically all the pasta dishes.
The ship is pretty but I was not impressed with the atrium area. I feel that Norwegian Cruise Lines should have designed the layout so that everyone was spread out through out the ship like on other ships that we have cruised on. We could definitely tell that we were traveling with 4,000 passengers. It felt very crowded.
The food that we did eat was tasty but the scrambled eggs were very running for breakfast. It is best to have an omlette made to order.
Nice cabin but very little storage space.
No problem with check or departure.
