We’ve been on other NCL cruises but this was the first on such a large ship. 4000 people made the ship feel crowded and understaffed. We had a balcony room and it felt small. The closet was next to the bed and you needed to go in sideways to open the closet! Our room steward, Rufo, was a dream. We ate in the pay restaurants 4 times and the food was good. Also, the food at the noodle bar and both Savor and Taste were all very good as well as breakfast at the buffet. Waitstaff at the restaurants and bars were all very good. Pool area always felt crowded. Size of the gym for this size ship was ridiculous. Chairs at the pool areas seem to be at a premium.
Harvest Caye was a wonderful port stop. The beach was lovely with tons of chairs and there were bars and restaurants and shopping. In Cozumel we took a taxi to the Mayan ruins and really enjoyed the time. I think we would like to stick with a smaller ship in the future,
Cabin felt small. The balcony was minuscule. The table between the 2 chairs could hold 2 bottles of water. Forget having breakfast or any meal on the balcony!
