Thanks for the review and extra pictures. It's really helping to get a sense of the ship.

Your review was great! And thanks for responding to my laundry question Now I know to wait and keep an eye out for the deal...rather than spring for a more expensive option.

Also, I haven't even sailed and I agree about feeling nickel and dimed...if I'm "paying" for the drinks package, I should be able to get water and good coffee!

Did you eat at any of the specialty restaurants? Booked let bistro, Cagney's and hoping to get the tappanyaki once onboard. Was it difficult getting booked into this onboard if you did? The Italian which seems to be part of the buffet doesn't appeal to me! Thanks again

Teppanyaki on Spirit is small, maybe only one table?? but you also can't book it ahead of time you have to book once on board.

Continuing with the photos... The fitness center and Galaxy lounge are right next to each other. The gym was small but never got too crowded. There was always a treadmill or elliptical machine available.

Inside the Galaxy lounge is a very unique feature, a bridge viewing room. In my photo, the shades are down to preserve night vision on the bridge. But during the day, you can watch the officers operate the ship. The bridge viewing room also has photos from the construction of the ship and memorabilia from inaugural calls at many ports.

Love the rest of your photos. How was the food on the ship?

Great photos! Thanks for posting.

Pool deck beautiful compared to newer megaships.

What beautiful pictures! I'll admit we are kind of old school when it comes to cruise ship tastes, and the Spirit looks terrific. Thanks for posting.

Yes, just one table.

We only ate in the two main dining rooms and I though the meals were good, not great. The presentation is attractive. They do the best they can, but the ingredients are definitely economical which I guess is par for the course with the advent of specialty restaurants. Most MDR meat is sliced from roasts and fish is very thin farm raised varieties. The most luxurious entrée is probably the strip steak that is on the "available anytime" menu.

Lunch in raffles was typical buffet fare. I think we only ate 2 lunches onboard because we were out all day except for the sea days, of course. After returning from port at 4-5pm, we usually popped into Blue Lagoon for some chicken wings to tide us over until a late dinner.

Speaking of main dining rooms...

Garden Room (sorry, took these with my old iPhone)

Almost finished! Here is the aft bar/dining area outside Raffles buffet.

And the Bier Garten.

Here is a random collection of the Spirit's hallways and stair towers.

And last but not least, our inside cabin, number 9589. If you read my review, you know we had some issues with our cabin to be sure! But overall, it was adequate for such a port intensive itinerary.

Great pictures. Thank you. Brings back many fond memories.

Love this ship. My wife and I cruised from Venice to Barcelona in April 2017. Best trip ever.

Thanks for sharing your photos. I am sailing on the Spirit June 7th.

Funny, the sprit looks exactly like it did in 2010 last time I sailed her. Still my favorite ship.

Thanks for sharing these lovely pictures. I do not think I would be on the NCL Spirit, but it is great to see another cruise ship in detailed photos. I am amazed by how you woke up so early to take pictures and barely any people in these pictures. Usually the casino would be full of people?

Thanks for the pic's & memories...

We sailed on the Spirit from Barcelona to Malta, Portugal, the Canary Islands & Morocco over Valentine's Day 2015.

Cheers -- Von

This will be our 2nd time on Spirit. We were on her 2yrs ago this week for my 50th birthday! We went from Venice to Barcelona. Can't wait for the 7th of June!

Unlike most other ships of that age, the Spirit hasn't had a refurb. It looks the same as it did in 2010 because it is basically the same.

Thanks for posting and letting me walk down memory lane... we were on the Spirit in July '15 and she's definitely our favorite ship! ;) Those were great pictures!
