Hi CDBermuda
My son and I did that cruise last year around that time. You'll have a great time. Let me know if I can answer any questions you might have.
Hi Cort!
Hey...thanks for your posting. Would apprceiate any info you can give me about this ship. I've been to Bermuda before a few times but this is my first on the Spirit. Anything you can recommend doing on this ship? (or not do?) Best places for breakfast, lunch, dinner? I would love to hear your feedback
I think the buffets on NCL are top-notch for lunch; well-organized, lots of variety. The cookies are to die for! The main dining rooms are very good, though we found the service to be sloooooow. The only specialty restaurant we tried on Spirit was Le Bistro. The food was excellent. I had duck cassoulet - great. The comfort food at Blue Lagoon is casual but good and addictive! The buffet has made to order eggs for breakfast, yum. I'm trying to think what else...let me ponder and get back to you!

Hi Cort!
Thanks so very much for that great review, very much appreciate that and really enjoying reading it. I love NCL too, and agree with you on the wait in the dining rooms. I had an awful experience, truly truly awful, with a crew member on the Dream ship...(name removed)...from Jamaica. Reading that in your review made me GASP. (name removed) was, a room steward at the time I sailed on that ship a couple years ago. Can't tell you what happened but let me just say this....he should NOT be working on any cruise line. Very much a man who likes to "play the field" on cruise ships. It was horrible trying to avoid him and scary that he was in my room (cleaning it) every day. His reputation is well known, I found out!
Apparently your review never made it into the review queue. I just looked for it and we have no reviews for the Spirit for February 2010. If you resubmit it I'll make sure it gets published.
The reason we don't allow links to other forums is simple - it's like going into your local Ford dealership and posting ads for the Chevy dealer. We do allow links to other forums owned by Internet Brands, such as CruiseMates or FlyerTalk.
