Nieuw Amersterdam is scrupulously clean, well decorated, and efficiently run. Programming is diverse and extensive. Dining is excellent and has much variety. Upselling of specialty dining and spa services was too frequent, intrusive, and aggressive. Silver and glassware in Ledo market often not entirely clean. Dining and housekeeping staff were uniformly awesome - they really made the trip for us. The Piano Bar is misplaced next to the casino. No musician should be forced to compete with the constant "bloop bleep" of slot machines and video poker. Ship should consider an addition to their kitchen tour to include navigation and propulsion spaces - a sort of "behind the scenes" tour. Cruise DIrector was awesome, very high-energy and engaging. Shore excursions showed a lot of variety. Turks and Caicos needs to be dropped until they've recovered from the storms. Once you leave the cruise terminal, it looks like Mogadishu. Very depressing.
This is a suite in name only. Larger bath and perhaps more square footage, but it did not have the separate sitting area you normally associate with "suite." The promised binoculars never materialized. Cabin stewards were great and very friendly.
