To all it may concern, we sailed aboard the NCL Breakaway in H6 cabin #9316 $9071 for one week cruise, June 9, 2019. We received our room key cards at check-in Haven lounge. For the two of us the 2nd bathroom was a waste of space and never used, takes away from the living area and master bedroom. Balcony was the only plus, 236 sq ft of luxurious space with the best overhang providing shade from the unrelenting Caribbean sun. Balcony deck is worn and stained, it could use a paint job. The lounge cushions are worn and stained on the balcony. Steward place clean white coverings on two of these lounges without asking ( I think they already are aware of these shortcomings). Curtains are worn from pulling open and closed, as are all the cushions and sleep sofa upholstery (worn). Table tops ae bubbling from spilled drinks, I imagine.

Luggage is promised before 8pm, so plan on wearing your day wear to dinner first evening. At Haven check-in you should receive a nice leartherette key card holder. Use it after you go through security. Security had us remove card to scan while holding up line trying to remove it while juggling our carry-ons. Got our bags at 3:30.

Toilet came with a new unwrapped roll of toilet paper, a small, but welcome amenity.

One of the best in the industry. Though it needs refreshing.

Port Reviews

Harvest Caye

Got off and walked around. Very impressed. CLEAN! One of the best, but we walked back to ship to take advantage of our balcony.

I think there is one very important aspect to dining on board the Breakaway for particula type of Haven suite guests like myself, who wish to dine at a particular hour every evening. You must make your reservations weeks before you board for the specialty dining venues, because the concierge can not guarantee you a specific day or time once on board, for specialty dining. For us it would be a deal breaker ever sailing on board the Breakaway again.
