Sail Date: Jun 2017
Cabin: The Haven Deluxe Spa Suite with Balcony
Traveled with children

We stayed in the Haven and thusly were able to retreat to the relative quiet of the Haven enclave and our cabin. This contrasted with the pool deck where typically during the day the population was shoulder to shoulder in the pool, hot tub and walking around the lounge chairs. Great entertainment was offered if one was into that, be we where there to relax.

It was ironic to frequently see that the sun deck and hot tubs just 3 decks up were nearly empty during the times of the main pool horde.

The ship utilized the Atrium rather than the theater to accommodate many of the cruise line games such as Newlywed, Battle of the Sexes, Deal or No Deal, ect. Unfortunately that met that even if one arrived 15 or minutes early you would have no place to sit to watch. That is the case on both main floor and the floor above the stage. Wonder if NCL realizes how many folks cannot even get participate in the entertainment offered. They did not appear to have anything else going on in the theater at the same time.

Cabin Review

The Haven Deluxe Spa Suite with Balcony

Cabin H8

Quiet, larger than the 309 square feet that NCL posts for the regular Haven Spa units. Balcony actually could hold two loungers and two sitting chairs. Living room portion of the cabin probably would qualify as a separate cabin in a lower class if it had a lavatory. The Master bedroom was like the same size as the other Haven Spa units. Great service.
