We chose this cruise because it fit perfectly into our schedule. The cruise itself was wonderful. We loved all the ports and excursions. The only problem was the food. The whole reason we switched from Royal to Norwegian was the food. This trip we saw the same shrimp in a dish most nights. Our favorite lava cake dessert, which is usually offered nightly, was only offered one night. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come. Our room was extremely small, but our room steward was excellent. We had a great time in the casino, the dealers were very friendly. I was very impressed with the life guards around the pool. I had never seen them on prior cruises and always thought they were necessary. These lifeguards made sure parents controlled their children and kept the drunk people from drowning the 7 foot deep pool. Getting on and off the ship was a breeze.
Our cabin was extremely small. We chose an inside cabin since we didn't have any days at sea. If I had known how small it was I would have chosen a larger one.
The beach was beautiful. In the water there was a section of sunken treasures which made snorkeling so much fun. They had a lifeguard in a kayak to make sure everyone stayed safe. They also had floating mats to rent which made my day.
