Great Customer Service by A Traveler from Los Angeles
Sailing date: Oct 2012

Pros:
Customer Service, Food.

Cons:
At Florence, there weren't enough shuttling buses to transport people to the cruise terminal. It was pretty chaotic as people were afraid they would miss the boat.

- Great variety of food. - Staff will do anything to satisfy customer. - Great shows at night. - A good amount of fun exercise classes (i.e. Latin Dance)

Sailing date: Feb 2012

Great Cruise, Love the smaller ship feel by Jeanette B from Eyota, MN
Sailing date: Jan 2012

Pros:
Disembarking was so easy and all the staff on board were super

Cons:
The sea was a little rough but that is out of your control. The Captain kept us informed and safe.

The ship's crew were awesome. The ship is layed out so you do not have to walk thru the casino all the time like some are. No waiting for the super meals. The shows were very entertaining and family oriented. The comedian was so funny and the dancers and singers were awesome. The inside cabin was roomy and had lots of storage areas. The Freestyle makes it more relaxing.

A Special Time for the Whole Family by Tina S from Spokane, WA
Sailing date: Aug 2011

Pros:
Having everything right on the boat for all of us! Kids, 9 and 14 and us as parents!

Cons:
Having seperate swimming pools. The food in the "dining rooms".

I would have to say that we had a wonderful experience on the boat. Both kids, one 9 and one 14 really loved the kids club and the teen club. My husband and I loved hanging out by the pool and enjoying romantic dinners with just the two of us!

We were suprised that adults couldn't go into the areas the kids and teens were, but once it was explained that they can't do a background check on every parent or guardian it really made me feel secure about where my children were hanging out.

First Time Cruise Experience by Douglas D from Evansville, IN
Sailing date: Jun 2011

Pros:
Friendliness of staff; stateroom accomodations

Cons:
Food was average; felt nickeled and dimed.

The overall cruise was good. I was disappointed with Belize and Cozumel; but Roatan and Costa Maya were great! I enjoyed the interaction with the staff and found them very friendly. I felt a little nickeled and dimed at the end of the cruise as they are trying to get money out of you at every turn (at least it seems).

A good vacation. by Galen G from Memphis, TN
Sailing date: May 2011

Pros:
Eating whenever you felt like, friendly staff, plenty to do aboard ship

Cons:
You have to pay for soda

This ship is a little older, but still has plenty to offer regardless of your interests. Everything was as clean as you could expect and the rooms and common areas were in excellent condition. There are plenty of dining options to choose from, though many feature an additional charge, so we stayed away from those. I wasn't disappointed in the standard dining options, though. The breakfast buffet is surprisingly delicious and diverse in its offerings and the Windows restaurant was superb night after night for dinner. The staff in the dining areas were always polite and helpful and amazingly good at remembering names and faces. There was always plenty of entertainment in the evenings, though we tended to roam the decks on our own and just take in the sea air. We had a wonderful trip.

A wonderful cruise by A traveler from Ocean Springs from Ocean Springs, Mississippi
Sailing date: Mar 2011

Pros:
We enjoyed being able to walk around the entire ship on the promendade deck, getting fresh air and depending on the number of laps, half an hour to one hour of exercise.

We sailed on the Norwegian Spirit and had a wonderful, relaxing week. The beds were comfortable, the cabin was spacious enough for us to store everything, including all of our dive equipment. We had delicious meals every night, including lobster and steak, and there was always something to do. We booked the crusie so that we could go scuba diving at each of the four ports included on this seven day cruise, but enjoyed so much more. Thank you!

A very fair cruise by Mary S. from Longville, Mn
Sailing date: Mar 2011

Pros:
2 of the ports

Cons:
Food and crew

I have sailed alot with NCL and other cruise lines, and when it came time to take my whole family (kids and there spouses and grandkids) I picked NCL. What happen to NCL? The food was terrible, (My family said sure the food was good mom) the crew was so rude, I was so hurt and embarresed. I could go on and on but I won't. Sorry to say I won't be back unless things change.
