We choose this cruise for the departure port and ports of call. We have taken 20+ cruises on multiple lines in the past. But, only one previous cruise on Norwegian which was not enjoyable. This was our return review of the line. Prior to sailing we reviewed the posting for this line and departure port. Most were not very complimentary but we gave them a chance anyway.
1. Departure ...
I chose to go on Norwegian getaway because I had went a few years prior and the experience was a good one. I decided to take a trip with two of my friends January 27, 2024 not knowing what we were walking into. The staff along with the people vacationing on the boat were not the nicest, this was a 10 day cruise and after being on for a few days and talking to multiple people, we found out that ...
NCL Getaway review 27/01/24 – 06/02/24 Cruise
It’s been 20 years since our fist cruise onboard Carnival Triumph, so since 2023 was our 50th anniversary we decided to give this one a shot since it left from New York.
NCL Getaway 10 day all inclusive cruise from New York. Ports of call were Bermuda, St. Maarten, US Virgin Ils., Porto Rico, and Puerto Plata DR.. Bermuda had to be missed ...
My entire family of six sailed on the Getaway to the Caribbean to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. We had a great time because it was the first time the family has cruised together, and it was an altogether new experience for my son and grandson. Weather prevented us from visiting Bermuda, but we did get to St. Maarten, St. Thomas, Puerto Rico and Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic. I ...
Oh man, where do I start? The food was horrible. I think the best food was at the buffet which says a lot. Room service was by far the worst food. We visited three specialty dining restaurants. We went to the Italian one and food made my mom sick. then we went to the Brazilian steakhouse and they literally had three options and they were dry and flavorless. The hibachi restaurant I had high hopes ...
We were very disappointed in serveral areas while on the ship.
1. The entertainment in the Hollywood theartre, with the exception of the magician and the Hawaiian opening, was not good. The comedian was very disappointing and vulgar.
2. The chairs in the Hollywood theatre were worn out and very uncomfortable. You slid off them as you were watching the performance.
3. Cost of ...
First the positives. The staff!! The staff were helpful and friendly. From the dining staff to the room stewards and everyone else. They were so good that I added a tip to my already prepaid tips. My room was comfortable and spacious. I was glad I opted for a large balcony with chaise lounges. The specialty restaurants were good. I enjoyed my meals at the Tropicana, especially with the ...
My husband and I took this cruise with another couple. We have Diamond status on RCL but this itinerary was exactly what we were looking for and the flight deals were great, so we decided to try NCL. The ship was great, the food was good, and the embarkation and debarkation process was smooth and seamless. We will definitely cruise with NCL again.
We added 3 days to the beginning and the end of ...
The nice thing about Pride is you see three islands - it is a floating hotel.
The bad news is the food was terrible, the staff mediocre. We had some specialty dining in Cagneys and Moderno. Those were both good, but the food on the buffet was terrible. The night they had prime three of four in our party ordered it and not one person could eat it. I've had beef jerk more tender. ...
This ship is big and the reviews weren’t great but I found the food very good with lots of variety and fresh fruit. The shows were excellent but the bad did not outweigh the good. The ship is noisy with no place to sit and read. There was not much to do on sea days, in the evenings there were shows but in the daytime it was just drinking and gambling which I don’t do.
We missed the Bermuda ...
