We loved our EPIC B2B cruise. We had the Western Caribbean itinerary first followed by the Eastern. Carol was a little under the weather for a couple days at the beginning of the cruise but she's a trouper and bounced back with gusto.
We absolutely loved the ship. What's not to love! (though not better or worse than the Norwegian Pearl, Jewel, or Dawn - just different and every bit enjoyable).
The crew was commendable not only for how well they perform their duties but also for the level of warmth & friendliness they gave us - from our cabin stewards (we had a different one each week), to the restaurant & bar wait staff, to Paul Scally (cruise directer) & his staff. We were treated like royalty on every one of our Norwegian Cruise Line cruises to date and this was no exception. Be sure to order some drinks from Remo, Darryl, Domingo, Richard, & Virginia from the pool deck on sea days. Remo can be found all over the ship at night. Domingo also works the martini bar, Virginia in Bliss Lounge, Richard at the "fresh squeezed" juice bar in the Garden Cafe in the AM.
