Pros:
Itinerary (prior to the changes)
Best haircut on a ship
Decent food
Excellent special bar activities (Martini Tasting, Margarita Tasting, Black Glass Wine Tasting)
Good cabin stewardess
Decent bathroom/shower
Tango/Gaucho show was excellent
Smaller portion sizes so less food waste
Cons:
Inconsistent handling of tenders (poor to very poor)
Inconsistent service in the Versailles (did not appear to have assigned staff to our table for 10 - had up to 5 attendants per meal)
Missed ports/Cape Horn for unclear reasons
Limited wine options on the Beverage plan (when the ships own label beats most offerings, that says a lot)
Short stays in ports
Slow embarkation process
Poor staff to cruiser ratios
Same restaurant lunch menu each day
This was our 25th cruise - and 3rd (and last) with NCL.
We picked this itinerary over a year ago and it was a true bucket list trip. There were 10 of us (5 cabins). However, with short port stays, a missed port, and missed Cape Horn, it was disappointing. The ship has been having issues, and really should be fixed before continuing on cruises, as the itinerary was changing up until departure due to the engine issues.
With limited staff, service was overall poor - however, we had excellent service in Gatsby's bar, where the staff was knowledgeable and excellent.
Decent sized cabin. But only one nightstand - had to use the couch as my nightstand. Good storage and closet space. Bathroom was decent with a nice shower. Some overhead noise from children above us, but otherwise quiet.
The tour we wanted (Tycoons) was cancelled so we did a shorter tour.
