My Mum and I travelled from the UK to spend 2 weeks touring round the real Florida and included this 4 night cruise (10 May) so I could have a break from driving. We had cruised NCL before Alaska in 2008 on the Sun (the cruise where they had the major leak that partially flooded the front observation lounge - and were very impressed with how NCL handled that, including completely re-carpeting the lounge overnight). So thought we would give them another go.
The cruise was brilliant. The ship did not show her age, it was beautifully clean. I liked the idea of walking through the "sales" area when we first arrived, purchased the soda card which is good value for money, as you can use it on the private island.
Embarkation was easy, the cabins were not ready - so we went to the main restaurant for a nice sit down lunch - staff were more than happy to point us to it. Lunch was very good - so good in fact that we eat in one of the 2 dining rooms every night. The food was very good, well presented and tasty (I can't see how anybody could complain! the portion size was perfect, nothing wasted). When we got to our cabin an aft balcony - on deck 10 we were pleasantly surprised it felt spacious and light (we had previously had a outside cabin on deck 4 on the sun)! The bathroom was the same as the Sun - small and perfectly formed, everything within reach and the shampoo and shower gel was very nice. Our cabin steward was nice and helpful and left towel animals every night apart from the first night!
Good balcony - light cabin as it has glass across the whole of the end wall (includes a sliding door to the balcony). Some noise from the Outdoor cafe above but not enough to complain about or wake you up, mainly at 5.30am when the crew clean the deck, but if you were awake you heard it for 5-10 minutes at most.
