Epic Dream No, Epic Nightmare Absolutely!

Review for a Mediterranean Cruise on Norwegian Epic

The words "jump ship" became a reality when we found ourselves with no other recourse but to leave the Norwegian Epic after only 7 days of an 12 day cruise. WARNING: DO NOT BOOK ROOM 14118 UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE IF YOU WANT TO SLEEP AT NIGHT. (Unless you are hard of hearing or an extremely HEAVY SLEEPER) I booked the February 24nd sailing from Barcelona with the itinerary of Morocco and the ...

Too Big, Too Crowded, Too Mediocre

I sailed from Barcelona on Feb 24, 2016. My original itinerary was to be east to Italian ports, but NCL changed the itinerary to the west, Canary Islands, etc. Big, big disaster for me, with air from the US and a room in Barcelona booked I was locked in. So, first lesson learned, I will never book a cruise to go to a specific place. The Epic was full for this cruise. It is way too big, and ...

We booked a Mini Suite.In this mini suite no bathroom but a toilet and bath which were separated from the rest of the cabin by a curtain. Behind this curtain a cabinet with a sink in a size of a big soup bowl. In the cabin plenty of closet space, but we missed a bathroom separated from the rest. The check-in was very slow. After about 2.5 hours of waiting we could finally checked-in. Waiting ...

To start positively we enjoyed the shows you provided as we were lucky enough to find out to book our seats for Priscilla, Burn the floor and Soul Sensation early on. After this the ship and its crew failed to impress us seasoned cruisers in our party of 6. Here are some of the points we note: At dining areas • The crockery was cracked and a my cup actually leaked onto the table as no ...

On a negative here sadly. My wife and I have done 20 plus cruises and this was our first NCL , it will likely be our last with these folks , sadly. We booked a mini suite which seemed identical to our friends standard balcony, perhaps a slight oversell but I could live with that. The complimentary drinks package was appealing but bottles of water were excluded as were coffees???? Again ...

NCL Epic was terrible, too many people, no space, food quality lost.

This was our 3rd and final cruise on NCL. We never dreamed our10 day cruse could be so disappointing. Our prior 2 cruises were wonderful and relaxing. From our reservation and payment for promises and services that were not upheld such as it being a Nickelodeon Cruise and the promise for an upgrade or ship credit if we found a better price. Then, the overcrowded ship was without seats to eat ...

This was the worse ship we have ever been on. We cruise twice a year, mostly Celebrity, Princess, but we also like to try new ships. In this situation what was supposed to be celebration of our 40 year anniversary, but it was the biggest FIASCO instead. We bought 2 cruises back to back 4 nights and 10 nights of the total 14 nights. How I can describe it best? It was a ZOO, Jumanji (1995 ...

We cruised on this ship in December 2015. The ship itself was very clean and well maintained if somewhat flamboyant in the decor, still everyone's taste is different. However if you are English speaking beware. The announcements on board were given in 4 languages, English being one of them, but so heavily accented that we could not understand them. The staff all seemed to struggle with English ...

This cruise has changed substantially and it is a big disappointment for me and my wife. This is my 6th cruise, and I have tried 5 different cruise lines, but the Epic is likely the worse I have. Consider the following: 1) Ship design. The ship is way over-crowded, even in off school year with few kids. It seems Norwegian wants to put more staterooms in the ship while cutting the public ...

I am a member of the Mariner Society and have sailed a number of times on Holland America. It had been a few years between sailings and this past cruise was a hugh disappointment in almost every respect. Only the Indonesian staff have keep the high quality. The food was sub-par. The selections were terrible. Lunch at the Lido was just a mad house of trolling plates and not enough seating. ...
