We enjoy the flexibility of NCL to dine alone and to enjoy the specialty restaurants. The advantages of specialty restaurant dining is a larger selection of higher quality foods at small tables. The disadvantage is the additional fees for these meals. We also appreciated the drink package. Purchasing bottled water separately gets costly and you can't take any on board. Pay for as much as you can before you board the ship for the best price. Water prices and spa tile bed access is less expensive too if you purchase ahead of time. Specialty dining sites fill up quickly and taking care of reservations prior to sailing relives you from that hassle. The ports are nothing to get excited about unless you like beaches, shopping and water sports.

We always appreciate midship, balcony cabins to reduce the hike onboard. This was a nice size ship that really was manageable. Love to relax in the spa. This was especially nice while at sea and even at port. You can always get a better deal on spa treatments while you are in port.

The specialty club dinner and show was extraordinary. Always great crew and fun in the atrium Read more
