We chose this cruise as it was very reasonably priced and it was our first time with Norwegian..
Embarking was quiet an experience with the staff shoreside being quiet short and abrupt if you had a question to ask.
Once onboard we went straight to the outside restaurant on deck 11 for a snack and drink, the bar staff seemed very rushed and a tad rude, probably due to the amount of people ...
This was our 21st cruise, so we are not novices. We also aren't overly demanding and understand that things won't always go as smoothly as we would like. We chose this cruise for the itinerary...5 nts with 36 hours in Havana. This was our 3rd NCL cruise, but the last had been over 10 years ago. We had heard that the NCL experience had declined significantly, but were shocked at the extremely ...
We chose this cruise because it visited Havana, and it was short. We had never been on a Norwegian cruise before, but after reading the reviews, we were sort of dreading it! It seemed that this was going to be a bare-bones, very basic cruise with the advantage of visiting one of our bucket list locations (with the ease of getting into Cuba via a cruise). But it turned out to be better than ...
The guy with glasses where they sold liquor was rude.
The hostess at the Asian restaurant by the theater was a bit of a snob.
And then there was this guy where they serve the food, for the life of me I couldn't understand why he was just standing when the honey sauce bowl was empty, me and another lady had to ask him for more sauce.
Other than what I wrote I had a good time with my ...
We caught an 11am shuttle from our hotel to the port. By 12.10 we were upstairs and waiting to board. We didn’t realise when checking in we required our ESTA which was packed in our suitcase. Thankfully they let us board anyway. We were on board by 1pm.
We met our cabin steward the day we embarked and we saw him at least once if not twice a day. Our cabin stewards service was great.
We ...
First of all, the employees were awesome and the onboard entertainment was very good; otherwise, we were very disappointed. Our room was an inside room on the 10th floor. There were loud noises from the ship all night long. We never got a good nights sleep. The noises were NOT from other rooms, it was definitely from the ship. The food was also disappointing. We had 1 evening it was okay. ...
This was my first cruise and it was my first trip with just my daughter. Everything about the cruise was amazing. The crew were very friendly and helpful. The cabin was wonderful, always clean and everything we needed. The food was delicious and great verity of foods and the restaurants were always very clean and the staff was very attentive. All of the entertainment was awesome. Everyone was so ...
We choose this cruise for it 5 night itinerary because it went to Belize and we were very excited to get out on their famous reef. DISEMBARKATION WAS AN ABSOLUTE DISASTER! Another ship was at the pier, the Norwegian Escape, so our ship had to tender ashore. Apparently this had never been done because it took over 3 hours in lines for us to get off the ship. We have cruised at least a dozen ...
Our primary purpose during this cruise was to travel through the Panama Canal and celebrate my sister and brother-in-law's 40th wedding anniversary.The food was outstanding with beautiful presentation and staff that were have to supply our every need. The Jade only carries about 2500 passengers so there were no long lines for meals, shows, etc. With a longer cruise an added bonus is an older crowd ...
We chose this cruise because it was during our kids spring break. I wanted a real vacation from cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping. We got a great deal and it included our airfare from Detroit to Miami. Being a former Carnival Cruise Line employee I was excited to see what NCL would be like.
Embarkation: The NCL staff were friendly and very efficient at the Miami airport. We got on the ...
