I chose this cruise because I cruise this week every year because of scheduling of my work. I also wanted to see how the refurbishment of the Star went. I can say this our Cabin had new carpet and lots of new charging stations that are fantastic. I was a bit concerned that we had a "Priv-a-sea" balcony in Cabin 10008. It however was a great option because I really like the wind barrier that it created and made my experience a nice one.I did notice that service in Speciality dining venues La Cucina, Cagneys and were rather slow without explanation. The food was ok except for the long waits between courses, Entertainment was topnotch and made me enjoy our nights out. Service in our stateroom was exceptional and our Steward was very attentive. The ports of Cabo, Mazatlan, and Puerto Vallarta were great! We chose shore excursion for City of Cabo Discover the town of Todos Santos. It is Great choice with great history and good food. For Puerto Vallarta we went on the Tropical Jungle River Walking tour and it was a great way to escape busy PV. For Mazatlan we chose Sierra Madre Country Tour and loved the old town of Copola. The one thing that NCL really screwed up was Embarkation and debarkation. This left a bad impression coming on and leaving the ship. It would seem that a lack of communication for both events was evident. Fixing these events could otherwise make this a five star cruise for me.

Great new charging stations all around the room! Great sized TV. New carpet all around. The Priv-a Sea balcony made a great wind barrier for a stateroom that was so far forward
