Sail Date: Nov 2018
Cabin: Inside
The price was a great deal. First time ever to have an inside room it was ok except for being at front of ship. Able to feel more rocking, rolling & noises of the ship. Besides this everything else was amazing. The 2 specialty restaurants we booked were above expectations. We were treated like royalty, mind you every restaurant we ate at we were treated like royalty even the buffet.
Each island was better than the last. The volcano excursion of St. Lucia was unforgettable. So easy to walk off the ship & find a beach to relax on for the day was perfect. I wish we could have spent more time at Puero Rico.
Meeting the senior crew staff was wonderful through Cruise Critic meet & greet.
Cabin Review
Inside
Cabin IC
Booked this because of the price but NCL would not let me upgrade (even paying for it) when prices dropped within 2 weeks of departure. I think some leeway should be allowed for this. Even with bidding we should be informed immediately that we did not qualify. I will never book an inside again no matter the price. We love the sights & sounds of the ocean.
Port Reviews
San Juan
Great City to walk around & enjoy the sights & shopping, wish we could have stayed longer
St. Maarten
The beaches were amazing along with the water taxi. Shopping was very enjoyable also
Barbados
Got on a shore cab ride with others (strangers) and had a blast seeing the sights & talking to locals
St. Lucia
so great to get up to the volcano & literally smell it. Meeting local vendors on the excursion was fun & enjoyed the meal at the restaurant even though I think this sould have been included in the price
Antigua
Was directed to a beautiful beach at a Sandals resorts buy a local cab driver & again met new people & hung out with them for the day.
St. Kitts (Port Zante)
Fun time shopping & being entertained on the street with local buskers & musicians. Beautiful & colourful country
St. Thomas
Sad that this was our last island, just took it easy & enjoyed the shops by the pier
