My first (and Last) experience with Norwegian Cruise Line was below standard and very disappointing. I was very upset with a number of different things and this cruise was a total waste of time and money.
The ship was very over crowded, and how can 3000 people share two pools and four hot tubs? To enjoy a nice swim or enjoy a refreshing hot tub was impossible. In the seven days that I was on the ship, only one time was I able to enjoy a swim without sixteen people crowding around. The lounge chairs were an embarrassment! People were very aggressive with trying to find and reserve lounge chairs, and I even witnessed verbal arguments over the chairs. Not only were there a lack ther of, but in the morning you had to put them out yourself, that is if you could find any.
The food on the ship was sub-par, and not what I had expected or received on other cruise lines. The buffets were a nightmare and had a very scarce selection. The people were grabbing food like it was going to run out, and on one occasion it actually did!!!!! The buffet had literally nothing left but cookies!!!
