Review for a Baltic Sea Cruise on Norwegian Getaway

I loved this cruise. I loved the outside looks and the inside of the ship was beautiful. Go transport to and from the cruise line, so that was wonderful (with an outside company). It was so fun and so easy to board and debark the ship during most days at port. Getting onto the ships during the first day was a little chaotic, but it was an easy process. I loved all the food. It was phenomenal EVERY ...

I will keep this short to highlight the positive because frankly there were very few issues of concern to talk about. The Getaway is an older ship that really did not show her age and you really had to look hard to find signs of wear anywhere. The ship is very well maintained and clean in all areas. Food quality, choices and presentation to include excellant service was the best we have ever had ...

This was the 7th cruise for me and the 8th for my wife. This was the first time on Norwegian for either of us. Other cruises have been with Carnival and Royal Caribbean. Port stops included Porta Plata, DR, St. John, Antigua, St. Thomas, USVI, San Juan, PR and the cruise line’s private island, Great Stirrup Cay in the Bahamas. There were two complete sea days on this nine-day cruise. We booked ...

NCL Getaway - A Debacle on the Open Seas

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

Destinations was top of mind as we explored the many choices of cruise lines. A Caribbean cruise was our top choice with as many ports as possible. Norwegian Cruise Line Getaway offered a 9-day cruise to the Dominican Republic, Saint Thomas, Saint Maarten, Antigua, San Jaun Porta Rico and of course the NCL private island in the Bahamas. With only 2 full days at sea, it seemed the best value for ...

First, I would like to say I've only cruised with Royal Caribbean (16 times) and it's the only cruise line I know. My lovely wife wanted something other than the boring Western Caribbean itinerary that's offered from our home port in Galveston TX. We've traveled to Florida ports many times, to link up with RCL ships providing better destinations. We also hold shares with all three companies, so ...

This is our fourth cruise with NCL (Majesty, Epic, Bliss, Getaway) and we have another five already booked for the future. We love NCL because of the value, the unlimited drink package, the freestyle dining, no unexpected charges, the Latitudes program and so much more. We just became Gold -- we're a little disappointed in how little the benefits increase between Silver and Gold, but we won’t be ...

We have cruised in the Caribbean many times, but always in the western part. This cruise took us to several ports we had not visited. The weather was good and we had a great time. I guess the only downsides we saw were increased gratuities, but less service. I understand that the cruise lines are trying to make up for lost revenue during Covid, but hiring fewer cabin stewards and ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

For our first cruise, the Norwegian Getaway exceeded our expectations in terms of size, the many amenities and the inclusion of the Free at Sea promotion. It was so nice to not worry about extra charges for food and beverages during our time at sea. The food at the buffet and Tropicana was hot and fresh with options for everyone. We had no problem keeping busy with the activities and ...

Me and my wife chose Norwegian for the length of the cruise and the airfare special they offer 2nd person flys for free but this offer was a nightmare we wanted to fly in day before but we were talked out of it and guaranteed to arrive on time Norwegian will get your on the boat no matter what etc etc so we we let them take care of everything well United airline delayed our flight one hour for ...

We were a party of six seniors. We chose the cruise because the timing worked and there was something new for everyone to see as far as ports. The boarding process was easy and efficient. I would say there is no need to board early unless you want to explore the ship. Rooms were not ready for hours after we boarded. The onboard entertainment was good in general. The performers had a lot ...
