Norwegian Mexican Riviera Cruise Reviews

We just returned from our Mexican Riviera itinerary on the NCL Bliss. The ship was great, try not to be discouraged by some of the negative comments people post. The ship was clean and our balcony stateroom, was great. Note - ask your cabin staff for a mattress topper (they have a limited number available, but it really made the bed more comfortable. And, don't miss Mark Klein, best comedian ...

We choose this cruise because because we were pleased with a previous cruise with the Breakaway earlier this year. Our flights were included and on time with United Airlines but we had to pay check the suitcases. The food in the free dining rooms was bad and the service was ok only in Savor. NCL "forces"you to buy the specialty restaurants packages if you want a decent meal and it comes ...

I booked a spa cabin (no longer a category with NCL) but should have done better research. I was mere steps from the spa, which was great! Things that were not so great: 1. LOUD, the Mandara Spa is on the deck above. Spice H2O is 2 decks above on 17 and if I had my balcony doors open, I couldn't hear the ocean because of the noise and people on loud speakers/microphones. The only time it ...

I chose this cruise because my past Norwegian ships such as the getaway and the joy was good and the entertainment on this ship that o heard it was good. The restaurant was good food was good. Most staff was friendly but or at the waterside at the pool pushed me down and didn’t hold on to the tube when I was getting on. I feel and hurt my self. Overall it was ok. The elevators was so busy and it ...

Just completed 20 days on the sun from Seattle to Fl. First off we had a penthouse i bedroom rear facing suite on the 10th floor that had a very large deck with two chairs and two loungers with thick and comfortable pads. The room was ok - the shower wad small to fit the 6 foot tub. The living room needed an extra chair and bigger table for eating on but we just bough in a deck chair. The bed was ...

We choose because of the itenery. Ship was very clean & crew very friendly. The food was horrible ! Corn & ham on pizza only 1 example. Entertainment I have seen better at high school level. Pool Entertainment was funeral music. They asked us to buy a cruise pkg of $3k upfront lump sum to guarantee them 12 cruises. NO! there was a port cancelation & the refused refund of the port fee. They ...

The cruise was chosen for destination and length of cruise I wasn’t sure how the 21 day cruise would be seeing I had not been on a ship for this lengthy duration. It was wonderful. I found with the longer cruise I never felt rushed to fit everything in or over schedule my time. The Breakaway has far more outdoor deck space that can be enjoyed with relaxing furniture. There are outside ...

This cruise was very disappointing. Of all my past 18 cruises this was the worst. I had sailed Norwegian twice prior to COVID and it was very good. We were very disappointed in the lack of service and poor entertainment likely caused by Norwegians cost cutting measures. Entertainment in the theatre was not enjoyable due to the lack of quality performances, repeated performances, and the ...

NCL 2 for 1 FLIGHTS: They booked us from PHX-MIA on American Airlines, our go-to airline, where we received a "Complementary" upgrade to 1st Class. Our 2nd trip in a row to have that happen. We flew home on SouthWorst – all flights delayed, baggage arrived on 2 different flights. NCL SHUTTLE FROM MIA-PORT: Our flight arrived VERY early so we had time to eat breakfast before we caught the ...

Just to give this review some context, I was traveling solo, am 70 years old, and this was my second Norwegian cruise. I took this cruise primarily for three ports: Acajutla (El Salvador), Puerto Quetzal (Guatemala) and San Juan del Sur (Nicaragua). I'd already been through the Panama Canal, so that was of less interest to me. First, there were things to like about this cruise. The ship ...
