Sail Date: Sep 2016
Cabin: Inside Stateroom

I had an inside cabin and it was fine. I travelled by myself so there was plenty of room. I found the crew to be very friendly all throughout the ship. Getting on and off the ship was a breeze. The lines only took a minute or two getting on and off. I did the walk off and carried my own bag and it was very controlled and went quickly. Much better than other ships. I especially enjoyed the buffet. It was set up to duplicate itself 4 times so there was never a line. You just walked up and got what you wanted. I don't think people realized the same set up was available on both sides of the ship. There were steaks on the menu every night and I found them to be very good. Omelet stations were adequate in the morning. Selection was tremendous. The ship was spotless. Make sure you make reservations to see the shows or you will be shut out. I wasn't used to that but this was the first time on one of the big ships. I was used to the smaller ships where I could just show up. My fault not NCL's, as they kept saying to make reservations for the shows. All in all it was a great cruise and the ship was so large you could hardly tell it was moving. I would highly recommend this ship.

Cabin Review

Inside Stateroom

Cabin IX

Cabin was more than adequate. The glass enclosed shower was much better than other ships.

Port Reviews

St. Thomas

Travelled on my own to Sapphire beach and spent the day there. Took the bus in town and it only cost $2. each way. Good place to hang out and snorkel. They had food and drinks on the beach. Food was about $10 for rented snorkel gear for $10 for 2 hrs.
