I flew into Miami the day of my embarkation which was super! When I landed in Miami, I got to my bus transfer and headed for the ship within half an hour. I highly recommend the bus transfer. I got to the ship through a rather fast check-in process and found my cabin. I had an ocean view cabin which really wowed me. My suitcase arrived shortly afterwards and I was able to change to my bathing ...
This was our first cruise. So we didn’t know what was normal and what wasn’t. But wow. There are some issues here.
First of all, as newbies, as the ship was leaving, we went up to a viewing point to watch us sail away from Florida. To our absolute horror we watched miles of sewage being dumped by our ship. I’m scarred for life after seeing this. I immediately started googling to see if this ...
I chose this 4 day cruise to celebrate my birthday. I traveled solo and had a fantastic time.
I noticed NCL had reduced the price to $99 without a single supplement plus 1 perk, and I jumped at the offer last minute. NCL then offered me the option to bid on an upgrade. I bid $50 for a balcony and won. I also applied 1 cruise next coupon so sailed away with a great deal on this ...
Please understand that this is just my opinion and experience on the Norwegian Sun out of Port Canaveral on October 31, 2019. I'll break it down into categories.
Embarkation: Pretty good although there was some wait.
Debarkation: Very good.
Staff that greets you on and off the ship: Excellent and smiling all of the time.
Room: Clean and a good size.
Room Steward: Best thing about ...
This was our first cruise so we weren’t sure what to expect, but now I can say I will only cruise norwegian for vacations from here forward. Getting on the ship was so easy and took about 10 minutes from checking in to walking aboard. Our stateroom was perfect ( we had an ocean view). It had 2 twin beds and a pull out couch. Being able to chose when and where we ate was so important to us because ...
I read the reviews prior to leaving for this trip (not before booking) and have to admit, I got a little scared. However the negative reviews were way off. This was an outstanding trip. ship was clean and well maintained for an older vessel. Staff was outstanding. I do recommend that getting the premium drink package if you plan on drinking more higher end stuff.
The private island was ...
I just got back from my first NCL cruise today and I definitely didn't want to wait to write this.
Let me start with the pros:
The ship is very clean, and it is nice.
The wait and cleaning staff are nice and knowledgeable.
Okay now the cons:
1. Our itinerary got changed because of the hurricane damaging one of the ports we were visiting. I know this is not NCL's fault, but the way ...
We were very underwhelmed by our cruise. We had a balcony room towards the front of the ship. The room was clean, but nothing spectacular. The TV channels were almost non existent, we had 2 movie channels and 1 sitcom channel, the other few channels were related to the cruise. The beverage staff was slow and constantly forgot your drinks. There was little to no entertainment on the ship. The ...
This was an excellent value cruise for 5 nights. It was my mom's first cruise and she was very nervous about getting seasick but she was never bothered at all. The entertainment was very good, just wish there had been more of it. The weather was perfect. Had a couple issues with or y room that were quickly resolved. Communication was lacking in pre boarding information. We were told to go to ...
Our cruise was supposed to go to Key West, Freeport (day at sea do to hurricane) Nassau and Sturup cay
The boarding process was slow we were checked in and taking to another room to wait for your group # we waited over 40 min to board.
We found the most of the staff okay but not happy like other NCL we had taking before, the ship is small so cabins were small good closet space the food ...
