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. ...
I chose this cruise because it fit the dates of our holiday schedule and I didn't want to go with Carnival. The ship also had broadway shows that we were interested in seeing so that was a special feature for us.
These are the things that happened:
* Day 1- while sitting down with a rep to set up my special dining reservation, the chair broke. I fell onto the tile flooring, bruising my ...
The positives of this cruise, the itinerary, the musicals, good shower space, and decent food.
The negatives:
1. Is a mega-ship with a poor design unable to accommodate all their passengers without feeling constantly overcrowded and always struggling to find a space to eat or relax.
For example more than once passengers were faced with lack of tables at the buffet restaurant, and were ...
Our balcony cabin was on Deck 12 towards the aft. Maybe that location explains why we had to endure noticeable vibrations seemingly from the engines all the time. It got so bad at one point (Day 2) that I called Guest Services; they sent a representative to our cabin and confirmed the situation. With apologies and statements to say that the issue would be looked into, that was that. The situation ...
I've mostly sailed on Carnival and Princess. We did a family thing and sailed on NCL. My first time and I loved it! I stayed in the studio's, which is a small room with a bed, small shower, and separate toilet. You have a video view of the sea so you don't feel claustrophobic. Ive been in inside rooms that wern't much bigger, it was not a problem for me being in a small room. Plenty of storage, I ...
We just returned from our Mexican Riviera itinerary on the NCL Bliss. The ship was great, try not to be discouraged by some of the negative comments people post. The ship was clean and our balcony stateroom, was great. Note - ask your cabin staff for a mattress topper (they have a limited number available, but it really made the bed more comfortable. And, don't miss Mark Klein, best comedian ...
We choose this cruise because because we were pleased with a previous cruise with the Breakaway earlier this year.
Our flights were included and on time with United Airlines but we had to pay check the suitcases.
The food in the free dining rooms was bad and the service was ok only in Savor.
NCL "forces"you to buy the specialty restaurants packages if you want a decent meal and it comes ...
I chose this cruise because my past Norwegian ships such as the getaway and the joy was good and the entertainment on this ship that o heard it was good. The restaurant was good food was good. Most staff was friendly but or at the waterside at the pool pushed me down and didn’t hold on to the tube when I was getting on. I feel and hurt my self. Overall it was ok. The elevators was so busy and it ...
