We just sailed on the Norwegian Bliss - first time cruising on NCL. Overall we had a wonderful time. The Haven area was lovely. We enjoyed the speedy embarkation and disembarkation very much. Here are some observations:

Our cabin 18126 was very nice but surprisingly compact. The bed was comfortable & the bathroom was spacious by cruise ship standards. Our balcony was adequate with only 2 chairs. Quick warning this cabin is close to the main pool area and we could hear all of the late party noise usually until around midnight. We head to bed late but others may not like that location.

The Horizon Lounge was beautiful and a nice place to get away and have a snack and a cup of tea. The views are tremendous. The Haven Lounge and Restaurant were great to have available. We ate there for breakfast daily and 3 or 4 lunches and dinners. The restaurant does have the same menu each day - they have a special most evenings. The food was outstanding. We ate at Cagney's, Q BBQ and LaCucina. They were all ok. Read more
