Overall a fantastic cruise with very good itinerary. We stayed in Pullman Hotel outstanding Miami airport the night pre cruise. The hotel has a free shuttle from airport to hotel and a $30 shuttle to the port which was great. The ship was brilliant and very Marc large which was good for not too many people in the same place at the same time. We did have one day when the weather wasn’t very good so ...
Sailing on the Bliss for a 15 day Panama Canal cruise from LA to Miami. Overall the ship is very nice--well maintained and nicely appointed. Embarkation was smooth as butter--we bought the priority embarkation option and it really took us less than 10 minutes from drop off at the port to getting our keycards and getting on the ship.
Dining options are plentiful with several specialty ...
We enjoyed the Bliss and had a good balcony room the food was good and the service was excellent. We would go again! OH we did we went back to back we went from LA to Miami and back to LA 30 Days. It was fun we will do it again some day!! I cannot post this because not use enough words so I will add some. We had a very good time. We liked the ship, we liked the beer, we liked the food, we liked ...
We paid extra to be in a balcony cabin so we could look out and sit outside while cruising . It took a long while to get on, and even longer to get off. Our cabin was not thoughly cleaned before we were allowed up. We found a makeup brush on the floor. Our sliding glass door, the glass balcony and the balcony rail were all caked with salt and I couldn't see through them. When sitting in a ...
This is a big ship. Very nice. Nicely appointed and newish.
Getting on and off was quick and easy.
The staff everywhere were friendly, helpful and a pleasure to deal with. The cabin steward did a really good job, had a lot of cabins to do but, he was inconsistent timing. Sometimes cabin was cleaned at 9 AM and other times it was still undone at 2:30 PM. He did a very good job though.
The ...
I went with my son to celebrate his birthday. We have been on many cruises before, all on Carnival. Chose this cruise for its itinerary, also looked like a great ship. The ship was beautiful, cabins were nice, Stewart was great. Very disappointed in the food, all the carnival cruises I’ve taken the dining room food is so good. The dining room here was ok at best. When you are on a 15 day cruise ...
We were beyond impressed with ship from the moment we were in line to embark. We boarded by 11am and were in Sugarcanes Mojito bar sipping Mojitos by noon. This turned out to be a favorite haunt with their delicious variety of Mojitos. Coconut/Pineapple, Ginger to name a couple. The ship was very clean and well organized. You would never know there were 4500+ people, no area ever seemed crowded. ...
I was on the norwegian bliss sailing january 7-12 on the mexican riviera itinerary.
This definitely put me off ever cruising norwegian ever again.
PROS: SIX AND JERSEY BOYS
Cons: pretty much everything else.
Overall: a vacation is still a vacation. It is what you make of it. We still had fun and did our own thing, but have decided that norwegian is definitely not for us.
I have ...
We took the cruise to Cabo San Lucas on 12/19/23. We've taken Royal Caribbean and Holland America before but never with Norwegian. It's the only cruise that fit our schedule so we decided to give it a try.
But since day 1 our experience with Norwegian become so bad. On Day 1, we drove to Long Beach Cruise Terminal, which is a mess. Driving in is a pain since there's only one lane to enter. We ...
Quick holiday week getaway, itinerary wasn't important, chosen mainly for closeness to us (SEA - LAX) and low cost.
Second time we've left out of "World Cruise Center, San Pedro" and both times embarkation was poorly organized outside the terminal, taking over two hours of waiting. Unlikely to use that port again.
Bliss is a fine ship, but has big ship issues. SLOW elevator service. ...
