We chose this cruise to experience Regent for the first time. We have cruised quite a bit with Royal Caribbean, Celebrity and Crystal (before it failed). We thought we would get excellence and we’re so disappointed about so many things. We love good food but found it hard to get a good meal on this cruise. We were forced to eat earlier than we usually do for dinner to avoid a 30 minute wait for a ...
For the price, there was nothing special about this cruise line and this cruise. It is worth it if you are only looking for an experience, but lower your expectations. I was double charged for wifi and have been in contact with customer service since 2023 to get a refund check that has yet to arrive. It has been more than 6 months. I was charged extra fees a day after the cruise ended, such as a ...
I choose this cruise because the family was going which I was a little skeptical about going since we didn't enjoy the first one all that well either but the family was going so we went despite our better judgment.
I can't believe the absolute nightmare my family and I endured during our recent cruise on the Norwegian Joy from August 20 to 30, 2023. We had not one, not two, but a whopping nine ...
I'm not the biggest cruiser, but compared to others, this cruise was pretty average. What made it below average for us was our three kids. The amenities were pretty abysmal, especially for kids. My kids were bored! They would post hours for activities and then not have them open at the appointed time. They closed down areas like the basketball court at 5pm. Onboard games like shuffleboard and ...
The best part of this cruise was the two days in port at Bermuda. For the most part the food on this cruise was less than delectable. The upgraded meal at the reservation required restaurants was a bit pricey but better. The my time dining feature was horrible because there was always a twenty minute wait on a line to be seated. The cruise is targeted for the over 50 crowd, there was no sail ...
It was a last minute decision due to the hot weather across the USA and cancelling our cross country trip. We left out of NYC on a 7 day to Bermuda. We have sailed on multiple cruises on three different cruise lines prior to sailing with NCL. The Joy was like every large cruise ship, too many people for the pool capacity, restaurants, etc. However, I think it is the first time I have ever seen a ...
I have traveled with Norwegian Cruises over several years the took 2 in 2019. COVID hit and did not book until this year. That being said, I was disappointed in the changes made on the Cruise to Bermuda. Many of the details that made Norwegian special had disappeared. No turning down of the bed at night, no creating of animals with the towels, only 3 rolls with dinner for a table with 4 people ...
Very disappointing. First I would like to say that the staff was great very friendly and attentive as you would expect on a cruise.
That is where the good ends.
The ship layout is terrible. Felt crowded everywhere we went. Elevators were always busy this is because for the ship of this size they only have 2 banks not 3 big miss there. The pool deck people were saving chairs starting at ...
We chose this cruise as a vacation with our extended family to include beautiful beaches and sights. Bermuda was lovely, even with some stormy weather. The Norwegian Joy however was not enjoyable.
To start the cruise, embarkation was over two hours later. Once aboard, cabins were not available for another 3 hours, later than usual. Our luggage was thrown into a large open area on the ...
We had a major issue with booking. Right before we printed out our tickets, we realized that Carnival had split our rooms and put our two minor children in one room. They cancelled the connecting room without informing us due to minors being in the room without an adult. We could have easily had one adult in the room with them, but instead Carnival simply cancelled our 2nd room. We had to ...
