Creator's Key Takeaways

The ship is beautiful. It underwent a refurb last year. They added a beautiful uh additions to the thermal suite.

Service, as per normal with Norwegian, was fantastic. All of my specialty dining service was great.

I ate in specialty dining every night. Everything was great. Service was great. Food was fantastic.

Disembarkcation. Generally speaking, uh, out of Miami, I don't really have a ton of issues getting on or off the ship. This one, we had an issue getting on, which was really nobody's fault.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Use 'Pearl of Miami' for Uber/Lift to Norwegian Cruise Terminal.
โœ“Be aware that room upgrades late in the game may place you in a noisy location.
โœ“If you are an early to bed person, avoid rooms above bars with music until 10:30 PM.

๐Ÿ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Embarkation organization โ€” Norwegian embarcation is slightly less organized than Royal Caribbean or MSC, but it's manageable.
Room steward interaction โ€” You may not see your room steward much; they seem overwhelmed with too many cabins.
