Review for a Bermuda Cruise on Norwegian Joy
Mrsnev
2-5 Cruises • Age 50s
This was our 3rd cruise with NCL with the 1st in 2019 on the Escape and we loved it. My mom and step dad loved NCL and have cruised with them for many years so that was our reason for choosing the line.
Went on the Pearl last year and enjoyed our experience.
This cruise on the Joy was not a joy at all.
The food: We never eat a meal at the buffet, but will grab a quick, small bite for ...

My cruise isn’t over yet but I know this will be my last NCL cruise. I’ll try to be as objective as I can.
Pros:
- Newer ship.
- Embarkation process was easy.
- The Starbucks staffs are very friendly, efficient. Even when there’s a line it moves quickly.
- The A-List bar outside of Los Lobos specialty dining was great. Spicy margaritas only served there and was excellent.
- The ...

We returned yesterday from this cruise on which we experienced both positive and negative issues.
Positives - amazing crew, always smiling and helpful, and working so hard. Given demands and capacity, service and the food was great - varied and fresh in Garden Café, main dining rooms and especially good in Le Bistro. Cabin was kept very clean and shower room bigger than on some competing ...

Review for a Canada & New England Cruise on Norwegian Escape

If you want good food select the premium meal plan. The standard fair is just fair.
If you want great entrainment go to Disney. Other than choir of Man, singers were pitchy and mumbled.
Mentalist show was good but short and slow.
Rooms and staff were great. Jeff cruise director was a little annoying.
They also spend a lot of time introducing staff. This seemed like a waste of ...

Review for a Hawaii Cruise on Pride of America

Good itinerary but unfortunate the ship is very dated, well past its best, a lot of wasted space, ie a huge library, card room , art gallery/ shop all barely used.
Food is average at best and often poor.
Speciality restaurants are no better.
Entertainment, is sparse and is worse than amateurish, at times very embarrassing.
Singers with backing tracks rather than live musicians. ...

We were bit concerned about the ship after seeing negative reviews but we had no issues. Ship is small but has plenty of bars and more places to eat then you can actually do in a week!
No sewage smells like others have reported.
All crew we met were great, always had a smile on their faces and we're great fun.
Cabins are on the small side but there is plenty of storage and it's such a ...

Review for a Alaska Cruise on Norwegian Bliss

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s
Not only were systems down for days on end, many things were misrepresented completely.
Not only were there 40 foot swells for over 12 hours, resulting in lots of things missed out on and sicknesses to endure.
The boat excursions were not at all as advertised.
It was not a large boat with a full-size bar. A tiny boat with no bar.
Systems were down so much that there was no ...

Review for a Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruise on Norwegian Viva

6-10 Cruises • Age 40s
We chose this cruise because it was the newest Ship, the itinerary (ports of call), and the feed back we got from people that sailed on other NCL ships including the Prima. What a waste of money..... It was a premium price to be on this ship compared to any others during the time including other NCL ships doing an Eastern Mediterranean route. We could have booked a similar trip on Celebrity in ...

Review for a Canada & New England Cruise on Norwegian Joy

This is our first cruise with NCL (not counting a charted NCL cruise many years ago). I am sorry to say we are disappointed. The food selection in the Garden Cafe (the main dining room) was limited and basically stayed the same throughout the 7 day cruise. The qualify of the food is also mediocre. We tried all the complementary restaurants as well and found the same thing with regard to food ...

We chose this cruise for the itinerary - figured September in Canada would be smooth sailing with lovely foliage... um, wrong! But who can blame mother nature for giving us a hurricane in Nova Scotia in September. Ok, so forgiving the horrible weather (so grey, so bleak, and nasty waves), we give the overall cruise experience a "meh" for just ok.
This was our first NCL and we felt woefully ...
