NOVEMBER

Star Star Star Star Star

PROS

Itinerary (Cuba), Drinks Included, Sports Bar on the Ship, Staff, Number of People on the Ship

CONS

Stateroom Small, Food Medicore

RECOMMENDED

Yes

We loved the opportunity to see Old Havana and the Tropicana. This was the highlight of the cruise. The staff was exceptional. It was so nice to get a drink whenever we wanted without paying for it. The food was medicore but it really didn't matter with the drinks free. We loved going to the Sports Bar on the 11th floor. This was our favorite place to have fun on the ship. The stateroom was a bit tight but again, we didn't spend a lot of time there except to sleep. Our shower did not have hot water. We reported it but never got fixed. We would definately go again on this ship.

Another Great Cruise

FEBRUARY

Star Star Star Star Star

PROS

Bars, people, food

CONS

Closing time of public areas by midnight

RECOMMENDED

Yes

Thanks for yet another great cruise. NCL sky could be one of the best cruises I have been on. The pool side bbq was the starting point, from there the great service, followed by some of the greatest people I have ever met. If this is the norm for the Sky it will be my go to for a short vacation. We are already deciding when to sneak away for another trip in the near future.

PROS

Size of the ship, friendly staff, dinning selections, Great weekend getaway.

CONS

No overnight in port. embarkation could be smoother. No one to help with mobility changed guest at disembarkation.

RECOMMENDED

Yes

I truly enjoy Norwegian Cruise line and have sailed many of her vessels. One thing that is consistent in their product is the service you receive. For the price requested for their cruise, the value is great! I was part of a group of early 30 woman who were celebrating many things. The ages range from early 20's to mid 60's. This cruise satisfied us all. It is a perfect ship for multi generation groups as well. The vessel is not so big that seniors felt challenge remembering how to navigate it and large enough for the 20 year old to get lost and not be found when needed. (smile) Flexible dinning provided the ability to eat together or separate without any problem.
