Entertainment

Cabin was very small, smaller than any other cruise we've been on. The complimentary buffet and restaurant food was diabolical. I tried to have a beef Cury once and couldn't even cut the meat with my knife, let alone eat it, there was no seasoning at all, everything was cold, Luke warm if you were lucky. They wouldn't cook a fried egg at breakfast in the buffet station. they'd cook broken eggs for omelettes but wouldn't cook a whole egg. They gave my husband a can of beer but wouldn't give a can of lemonade, they said they had to poor it into a cup !!!!!!! Entertainment was very hit and miss. There was literally nothing put in place for Christmas and New Year. They had a party on the deck for New Year, nothing in the restaurants, nothing anywhere, very, very poor. The only thing that saved this cruise were the crew were brilliant and we met some great cruisers, all saying the same about the food. You had to use the specialty restaurants to get a decent meal and that meant spending more money, what a surprise !!!. We have always rated NCL but if the had been our first experience of them we would not be cruising with them again, In fact, we still may choose not to cruise with them again because of this poor experience.

Restaurant food excellent, buffer mediocre. All staff superb apart from two men on the customer service desk who didn’t want to be there. Organisation poor eg tenders (appalling), no ship wide announcements (nothing in breakfast). Cruise Director didn’t engage with guests. No ‘lectures’ or even info about next port of call. Theatre entertainment mediocre. No ‘index’ of films on stateroom tv and those shown were on repeat and limited. Stateroom & balcony small, cabin shower-room cramped due to poor layout.

The itinerary for this cruise was good. Unfortunately due to the weather it was unable to dock in the first 2 ports so more time was spent onboard. There seemed to be no contingency plans for activities for this extra time onboard. The buffet food was below expectations based on other Norwegian cruises we have experienced. However the food in the complimentary dining rooms was fine. Our cabin was clean and as expected with a visit everyday from our cabin attendant. On the whole the staff worked very hard.
