We have been on many cruises, but just second time with Norwegian. First time was Boston to Bermuda and this time Port Canaveral to Key West and Cuba. We booked a suite and our embarkation was quick and smooth. We were ushered to a private waiting area with snacks and drinks. Our concierge appeared and escorted us on the ship. We had the option to go directly to Cagneys for lunch ( this ...
We choose to cruise on the Norwegian Sun because it goes out of Port Canaveral and it did the overnight in Havana. This was our first experience cruising Norwegian and we had high hopes. Our stateroom was great, deck nine 9432, great size room, plenty of space and comfortable. We were disappointed with the drink package, you couldn't get a bottle of water with the package. Almost every ...
We chose this cruise as we were celebrating our anniversary and wanted to see Cuba. We had a really nice stay in Cocoa Beach before the cruise started (booked through us, not the cruise line). Embarkation and debarkation were standard but once we were on the ship, we were very disappointed.
The worst thing on the whole trip was how bad the ship smelled!!!! Our room stunk! It smelled like ...
Omg, the lines to embark were ridiculous and it was extremely hot waiting. Once on the boat, we couldnt hear the announcements for the safety drill in certain areas. The cruise is not extremely fun. The entertainment selection is boring. We selected the cruise for the Itinerary and Free Alcohol. Not knowing that the weather was going to be bad. It rained in Nassau the entire time. Stores were ...
My Wife and I cruise during the summer months due to employment. This cruise was a fill in for us as we couldn't wait till July on the Escape. The Sun is a nice ship..... First, the weather was rain the whole weekend. So we really got the feel of the ship. We booked a forward penthouse suite, which was well worth the cost. The room was large and the bedding was the best I have experienced on ...
After having experienced cruises by Carnival and Princess Cruise Lines, my wife and I decided to sample Norwegian Cruise Line's (NCL) offering. We booked the May 2018 cruise to the Bahamas on the Norwegian Sun with a cabin with a rectangular window/porthole, purchasing 3 tickets to allow our 14 year old son to accompany us.
Well, our son decided to stay behind and start his summer vacation ...
As a group of six friends we were excited to take our first cruise to the Bahamas with Norwegian Cruise Line. Sadly the cruise did not live up to our expectation.
Most of our cruise was beset by bad weather, mostly rain. This is of course was not the fault of Norwegian Cruise Line but did lead all six of us to having a less than stellar time.
The biggest disappointment came to us of Day 3 ...
My husband and I have cruised to Cuba in November,2017. We used a private tour guide and went to Tropicana with ship. We wanted to go back and see countryside. We live 10 minutes from Port Canaveral so chose Norwegian Sun as close.
We took our daughter with us this time so booked a mini suite. No complaints about this ship or cruise. The crew was very friendly and helpful. We had free drinks ...
Chose this cruise simply because of the layover in Havana. The Sun is showing its age. Virtually no recognition of Latitudes Gold status. Food service in Main Dining room very disappointing- took almost an hour to get served at breakfast. Food service in specialty restaurants better. Not much in way of onboard entertainment compared to other Norwegian cruises we have been on. As usual onboard ...
Overall great cruise. It has been over 10 years since we cruised with NCL - some things were better than other cruise lines, some things could use improving. So here we go...
We drove to the cruise terminal. It was easy to find. You drop your bags first and then park. Arrived at ~1:00 pm for a 4:00 pm departure. It was not that crowded. Short walk. Parking is $17/day.
Embarkation - it was ...
