Bottom line up front: would I do this cruise again? Not these ports, necessarily, and not with NCL (unless my beloved live-in travel arranger insisted, and who can resist that face?)
Embarkation
Airport pickup was straightforward and easy, and check-in was smooth. As this is a small port, the waiting area was quite small and crowds soon congested the small shopping area. However, once they began boarding, the process went smoothly.
Cabin: 5082.
Small, reasonably well laid out. We had two twins pushed together, and one settee that doubled as a fold-out bed. I cannot imagine having a third person in the cabin and anyone being able to access the toilet in the middle of the night. Nice to have a separate WC with a sliding door to separate you from the sink and shower.
Shower: don’t expect to get the temp “just so” as it will change often in the course of even a short shower.
Odd features: We found one UK and one US electrical outlet by the desk, making it difficult to set up my husband’s C-PAP machine. If we needed a second one, we’d have to work that one outlet pretty hard and have cords in the walkway. Valuable real estate is taken up by a large mini-fridge which is stocked with drinks. Probably a money-maker for the company but a space hog in a small cabin. At least we had a lot of hangers.
This cabin is a short walk and a dogleg from the elevators/stairs closest to the main dining areas. As you make the dogleg, you pass in front of the door to a very busy crew area, and are in danger of being run into. Also, they look at you in horror thinking you are trying to sneak into the crew area when all you are doing is trying to leap out of the way of the rushing crew.
We opted to wander on our own. Everything seemed to be reasonable distance from the docks. The Hop-on-Hop-off buses were popular and the line seemed to be long all morning. Cost 22€. We talked to several people who said it was a nice way to look around. No shopping at portside and a 10-15 min walk to town to shop. We walked around early and nothing was open.
