We chose this cruise because we were looking for a cruise itinerary to the Caribbean during summer vacation. The Joy had the best price for what we were wanting.
I had a fantastic time. What I liked (and what is important to me personally) is good food in the buffet and main dining room, high quality music entertainment, friendly staff and up to date decor.
The food quality was quite ...
NCL Joy NYC - Bermuda Aug 13-20
Family of 4. Mom & Dad 54, Son 21, daughter 19.
Live in NYC. 3rd time on NCL, 14th cruise overall. We booked 1 Penthouse suite and 1balcony 1 month before the sailing date. 1st time leaving from NYC and 1st time in Bermuda. I would do this cruise again. I really liked leaving from NYC and not having to deal with the airport. Like most things in NYC the ...
I did not have the opportunity to complete the cruise rating. However, I wanted to say that everything was quite nice. Unfortunately, my husband and I were traveling with our grandchildren and it was not relaxing with them!!! I was on the assumption that we would be in the same room with a bed and a pullout couch. Ha! No pull out couch but there were 2 cots in the ceiling. We managed but it ...
There have been many reviews on a variety of platforms about the still new Carnival Venezia -- many of which were critical as kinks have been ironed out over the past few months. I am happy to report that we, a family of four with two young children (3 and 7) experienced almost none of the problems that past reviewers describe and had a fantastic time on the Venezia, despite a plethora of issues ...
chose to leave from NYC which worked out well parking was easy and a breeze right next to pier. In and out from the West Side Highway and not crowded whatsoever.
Had an interior suite two bedroom with virtual balcony. Space was very big and perfect for family of five with enough room for all three kids in one room and the extra living area for relaxing when needed.
Kids didn't do any of ...
About the Reviewer: I’m a middle-aged American male who traveled solo on this, my 57th voyage. I have sailed primarily on NCL with over 30 voyages and a handful of cruises with Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, MSC and Carnival. This was my 32nd voyage with NCL and my first since major changes were implemented. My last NCL voyage was on the Norwegian Gem in January 2023. My last voyage before this ...
My husband and I wanted to try cruising out of Boston, a port local to us, and to try out Norwegian after already having sailed on Carnival (10 years ago to Canada from NYC) and Royal Caribbean (to Alaska last year). We travelled with another couple who were on their first cruise ever. We all enjoyed ourselves, aided by the mostly smooth sailing, pleasant weather, enjoyable itinerary, and great ...
Yes there are some flaws, but if you did not enjoy your cruise it’s probably your own fault.
I always feel it’s important to say that if you’re fortunate enough to be able to afford a cruise vacation, you’re one of the lucky ones. If you had a bad experience, it’s probably your own fault. You can make your own fun, or your disappointments on a cruise. It truly is a choice, in my opinion. ...
I had read a few reviews of this trip after booking, but prior to sailing, so I did have some concerns as many were not favorable. I wanted to share my review as I thought this was a great trip. We went in the summer, so it was crowded, but besides waiting for the elevators from time to time and one night there was a line for complimentary dining, I have very little complaints.
Although ...
This was our fourth cruise on the Summit, of which three have been one week cruises roundtrip from Bayonne to Bermuda. We are Celebrity regulars, with multiple trips on Solstice-class ships and a recent cruise on the Beyond. Other than the Summit, we have not cruised on the other Millennium-class ships, mainly because we prefer the space and amenities of the larger ships. But we wanted a quick ...
