We really enjoyed this cruise! There were a fair share of grumpies on board- their cruise- their choice to be grumpy. The ship was clean, the crew worked so hard to make sure everyone’s needs were met. Of course, there was the typical out of order bathroom stalls- I am amazed at how they keep up as well as they do! The Officers were present and approachable. Nightly Entertainment in the Stardust ...
It was on sale supposedly so we booked this cruise, accoring to Avoya travel agent, Norwegian was of high standards, in my opinion this is totally wrong, I am a non drinker, I go up to a bar where they served long island ice tea, I asked for a plain ice tea and was informed to go to the buffet, even if you were sitting in a group of drinkers and the walking waiter came by to take orders if it was ...
Wanted to sail on Norwegian because of easy access in L.A. Ca, no need to fly into port.
Wish I would have read the reviews before booking. The plus side of this Ship is, it's very clean, all restrooms, dining areas, and other places (Spa, pool etc) were always kept clean.
My Balcony Room was very clean and the Stateroom Steward did an excellent job. The Specialty Dining Restaurants were ...
NCL did an outstanding job of boarding and the process was very smooth. Other cruise lines should take note of their efficiency in this area. Disembarkation seemed to be equally smooth.
The NCL Star is an old ship and she needs a lot of attention. Everything was clean but definitely showing signs of age. The cabin was reasonable but just lacked anything to make you say WOW. We could hear ...
Went with group of friends to celebrate New Years.
We were awakened 5 of the 7 nights, between 1 and 3 AM, with announcements such as emergency stretcher crew to cabin #.. , a couple of times someone keyed on the microphone and then no announcement, etc. Then we were informed by letter that no announcements would be made in the rooms about tender service and guess what, they made three ...
I have taken a ton of cruises and this was by far the worst. When we got to our room it was filthy. There was a dirty tooth pick on the ground, a dirty towel and it clearly had not been vacuumed. The boat if falling apart. Every public bathroom was over flowing.
The boat is severely understaffed so the staff is running around and they look miserable to the service is terrible. I always ...
Our first cruise was on the Norwegian Star for New Years 2018.
The departure was from San Pedro which was a disappointment, don't plan extra time for siteseeing as there was not much to see and the restaurants where underwhelming.
Boarding the ship was so easy and quick, Norwegian was prepared and friendly staff pointed us all in the direction we needed to go.
We went straight to ...
This was a New Year’s cruise on the Norwegian Star. I have concluded that NCL is worse than ever.
The biggest issue for us was their much touted “Freestyle Dining”, which NCL alleges takes the stress out of dining. Nothing could be farther from the truth! With traditional dining, you have a set table at a set time every night; you’re always guaranteed a place to eat with the same waiter and ...
Good value . There are no louges in the front of the ship for viewing and relaxing . The information for latitude members very poor. We had a package for three specialty restaurants The problem was nothing was available until after 930 in the evening. We also had a beverage package There were no problems with this . The weight room in the exercise room what is well-equipped very ...
We chose Norwegian Cruise lines at the suggestion of our travel agent. We were looking for a new years cruise that would not require too much traveling and where there would be good weather. All in all, my wife and I give the trip an average rating. The service and entertainment (shows) were very good and the cabin and activities were decent. Our main complaints are with the food and internet ...
