Actually one family did get blown into the ocean while trying to take a pic. Clothes, camera, and all, right into the water, lol!
Loud, yeah a little but not too bad.

We almost went on a Carnival one. I'm sure we would have had fun no matter what boat we were on, but after talking to several people on this boat, they said Norwegian is a step up from Carnival. Which is awesome because it's pretty much the same price Lots of people had negative things to say about the Carnival boats. But in the end whatever, it's what you make of it and I'm sure we would have had just as much fun. But after being on this, I think we'll be leaning towards Norwegian from now on. So many little things like when you get back on the boat they have music blaring and the crew outside dancing welcoming you back aboard, with hot towels, water, and hand sanitizer. All the people on the other boats just sit and watch the Norwegian crew dance.

Hell yeah! Can't recommend this boat enough man! If you start thinking about a different boat or cruise line, I'm telling ya you will love this ship and the service. Only downfall is the bar bill you will have racked up at the end haha.

I'm sure that bar bill is probably similar to any other boat... This cruise just looks better than a lot of others I have seen and heard about.
Did you happen to get to see any of the other rooms? I like the balcony idea and the dates I am looking at say I can upgrade for the same price as an inside room. Might go with a mini suite but I dont really think that is worth it as you'll be out on the boat most of the time anyways. Just in the room to sleep in my eyes...

There was a package for $50/day, all you can drink (have to pay for all 7 days). If I would have known about it, and understood it better, I would have gotten that package. It's easy to rack up more than that between the 2 of us. Next time will definitely be buying the drink package.
Our balcony room was nice. Kinda small but I think that's always the case. The cheap interior rooms actually seemed a hair bigger, but it's dark. You could wake up at 11am and not know it because it's dark 24/7. So I really liked the balcony because it let some light in, helped us get up out of bed and going in the morning rather than sleep in. And you don't have a good way to dry your clothes, where-as on the balcony you just drape your swimsuit over the chairs on the balcony and it's dry the next day. The Mexican people we met had a suite, but we never got up there to see it so can't comment on it. If I were you, I'd get the balcony for sure. If you can pony up for a suite than that's cool, but really you don't spend a whole lot of time in your room. Balcony is nice because you can see the sum shining in the morning, eat room service breakfast on the balcony and see the ocean whenever you want from the private balcony. Again kinda small but you don't spend a lot of time in there so it was the best bang for the buck for us I thought.
