Fell short of our expectation we've come to expect from NCL!

This was our 10th cruise with NCL. Because of life we had a four year hiatus from cruising and was excited to get back to it.

Embarkation went very smooth as Platinum cruiser with NCL. Very efficient and pleasurable. Disembarkation was less than pleasurable. We arrived late to the port, but priority disembarkation was non existent. I waited in a line that wrapped around the ship that I was in for more than an hour and a half.

The ship was refurbished since we last sailed on the Dawn. It was very clean and nice. Our inside cabin was small, but very nice.

Cabin Review

Mid-Ship Inside

Cabin IB

Nice Cabin. Met all our needs. TV placement was awkward. When the bunk was down for the night. The only one who could see was my son who was up on the bunk bed.

Port Reviews

Tampa

Close to home. so we love Tampa. It is a very small port, so causes long lines.

Harvest Caye

This review is the hardest. The facility, pool and beach was all exceptional. However, the pricing for everything was exuberant. Have been to Great Stirrup Cay NCL's other private island. Disappointed that cost for everything was so high. We bought one drink each and waited to go back to the ship to eat. It is a definite revenue generating port for NCL with very little consideration their guests.
