We love the western Caribbean and NCL is the cleanest on the seas! Best food and great service. Took a mini-suite this trip, loved the big shower! Stage shows were great, if you have not seen Rock of Ages show yet, be prepared, burlesque meets music, hysterical (not a show for kids but most of the humor will go over their heads). Great comedians and superb weather. New disembarkation was speedy and we were off the boat in 20 mins (not 1-2 hours). Getting on was a bit insane, but we are platinum so we breezed right through.

If you are headed out anytime soon, In Honduras, take the excursion to the wildlife refuge, great lunch, superb pool and amenities, nature tour, hands on with the monkeys (if you are brave), bird sanctuary and butterfly enclosure up close and personal - great for kids, fun for us big kids too.

We took the Party Bus in Costa Maya, only need to do that once, it was fun, but you can get to the same beach club/pool on your own for a $3 shuttle fare - you do have to buy your own drinks - so depending on what you are drinking, the ship tour comes with unlimited open bar.

Cabin Review

Mid-Ship Mini-Suite with Balcony

Super clean room, nice cabin steward gal, could not get enough towels daily even with tipping her, but the room was always clean. Ship had issues with beach towels, usually you have 2 in your room so you do not need many of the white towels, this trip you had to sign out the beach towels in each port and return, it was reasonable (slightly a pain) but we really missed having the beach towels in the room for showers. If this is their new policy for in port, we will get 2 beach towels poolside on the first day and keep them all week.

Port Reviews

Harvest Caye

We love Harvest Caye, great pool, short walk back to the boat for free lunch & free drinks (and a much needed a/c break!)

Cozumel

Take a $16 cab ride and go to Paradise Beach, $3 bracelet gets you beach, chairs, umbrella and pool, great service, clean and safe. Nice beach, super friendly staff.
