We chose this cruise firstly for the itinerary but also for the ship. We have been on the Spirit before and were looking forward to seeing the ship refitted. We were not disappointed, even though one of the entertainment areas was still being refitted. The new atrium was a great place to have trivia and other games and it was a nice comfortable spot for a coffee or something stronger. The new Spice H2O was a nice addition to the ship.

The food on board was delicious and the service was impeccable. We ate in the Bistro on the second night and really enjoyed the experience. This was the case in Cagney's and Onda by Scarpetti. We ate mostly at the Garden Cafe at breakfast and lunch times and there was always plenty to choose from.

The entertainment on board was professional and varied and there was always plenty to do during the sea days. The ships itinerary was wonderful, all the islands we visited were amazing. This was our first time in the South Pacific and we can't wait to come back. The excursions we booked via Norwegian all went well and were well organised even if a bit pricy. Read more
