Norwegian Cruise Line: Norwegian Spirit

Accommodations

Layout: Over two-thirds of Norwegian Spirit's cabins are outside with ocean views, and more than two-thirds of those have private balconies. Cabins have adequate space, including a sitting area with sofa, chair, and table. Every cabin has adequate closet and drawer-shelf storage, as well as limited bathroom storage. Most bathrooms are compartmentalized with sink area, shower, and toilet separated by sliding glass doors. Suites have walk-in closets.

Amenities: Light-wood cabinetry, mirrored accents, a small refrigerator, tea/coffeemaker, personal safe, Internet connection, duvets on beds, a wall-mounted hair dryer over the dressing table, bathrobes for use during the cruise. Electrical outlets are designed for Asian-style 220 volts and, although there's a 110-volt receptacle, it should be reserved for low-wattage appliances. Plug in a megawatt hair dryer, and you'll likely get to meet a ship's engineer because you blew out the power. Bathrooms have shampoo and bath gel in a shower-mounted dispenser.

Suites: Suites include such luxuries as whirlpool tubs and entertainment centers with DVD players.

Good to Know: Only four staterooms are designed for wheelchair accessibility and they are all interior.
