Norwegian Escape Review

Additional details
First, Let me start by saying my wife and I have formerly sailed on Carnival Breeze, Triumph, Liberty as well as RC's Monarch, Majesty, Independence (x2 and was married on it) and a few others that I don't recall right off. This was our first time with Norwegian though, and to say the least I would have a very hard time booking again with the other two lines after the excellent time we had on Norwegian Escape.
SHIP- Beautiful ship. It is like a city on the water. Impeccable cleanliness, plenty of bars and beautiful restaurants. You don't really ever feel like you are on a ship, but rather a top notch resort
CABIN- We were in a Spa Mini-Suite which was well decorated, clean, and decent in size. I have been in larger rooms on older ships, but this one offered plenty of storage and never seemed cramped. Shower was excellent- full size with body jets. Room attendant never missed a beat.
Cabin Review
Spa Mini-Suite with Balcony
PROS- Excellent decor, cleanliness, view, balcony size, shower being full size is a plus with plenty of water pressure, ample storage, can get to most places easily.
CONS- Not much bigger than some ocean-view staterooms on older ships (long but rather narrow), a bit noisy in the AM when they start moving deck chairs (pool is right above you, this was my choice because I opted for spa floor)
Port Reviews
Costa Maya
Lots of things in a small space. Nice swim up bar and dolphin show. Food and drink is a bit expansive for Mexico. Very disney-like atmosphere
