The service from room steward to wait staff was wonderful. We felt like VIP the entire time. The requests for robes, a particular bread we loved, anything we desired, NCL staff fulfilled it. The entertainment in Manhattan dining room really set this cruise apart from our other cruises. While eating, our eyes and ears were delighted with great music and dancers. We all left our table to dance which made our evening enchanting. Sitting under waterfall on back of ship was a great way to cool off and listen to it's soothing sounds. I though the round padded chairs were quite comfortable and conducive to meeting other travellers by their design. If you want to be adventurous, the ship offered a ropes course and many different water slides. My husband loved The Jimmy Buffett area. He heard songs of Jimmy's that took him back to college years while enjoying some yummy food. The Breakaway had something fun for all ages.
