Our favorite vacation is a cruise and have found in the past NCL to be to our liking as we have never encountered any issues until recently.
Food, if we hadn't purchased the specialty dining packages (four in total) we would have been very disappointed as the food in the general dining restaurants was very bland and lacked any special flare.
On board entertainment and service was very ...
This was our first NCL cruise. We (wife and I) have cruised on three other lines before and are trying different lines to find the one that best suits our tastes in order to develop loyalty. We booked a last minute inside cabin. We opted not to seek an upgrade since we really liked the location of our cabin (mid ship with cabins above and below). We also declined the free at sea options since ...
Bring a frequent NCL customer I have to say honestly that this was the worst cruises I ever experienced.
Our first day started out as usual. Everything was busy but nothing unusual. I signed up for cruise next based on my previous cruise experirnces with NCL while we waited for our cabin to be ready. When we got into our cabin we were upset to find that the previous cruisers trash was still in ...
NCL Getaway review 27/01/24 – 06/02/24 Cruise
It’s been 20 years since our fist cruise onboard Carnival Triumph, so since 2023 was our 50th anniversary we decided to give this one a shot since it left from New York.
NCL Getaway 10 day all inclusive cruise from New York. Ports of call were Bermuda, St. Maarten, US Virgin Ils., Porto Rico, and Puerto Plata DR.. Bermuda had to be missed ...
I chose to go on Norwegian getaway because I had went a few years prior and the experience was a good one. I decided to take a trip with two of my friends January 27, 2024 not knowing what we were walking into. The staff along with the people vacationing on the boat were not the nicest, this was a 10 day cruise and after being on for a few days and talking to multiple people, we found out that ...
First the positives. The staff!! The staff were helpful and friendly. From the dining staff to the room stewards and everyone else. They were so good that I added a tip to my already prepaid tips. My room was comfortable and spacious. I was glad I opted for a large balcony with chaise lounges. The specialty restaurants were good. I enjoyed my meals at the Tropicana, especially with the ...
My entire family of six sailed on the Getaway to the Caribbean to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. We had a great time because it was the first time the family has cruised together, and it was an altogether new experience for my son and grandson. Weather prevented us from visiting Bermuda, but we did get to St. Maarten, St. Thomas, Puerto Rico and Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic. I ...
Oh man, where do I start? The food was horrible. I think the best food was at the buffet which says a lot. Room service was by far the worst food. We visited three specialty dining restaurants. We went to the Italian one and food made my mom sick. then we went to the Brazilian steakhouse and they literally had three options and they were dry and flavorless. The hibachi restaurant I had high hopes ...
This ship is big and the reviews weren’t great but I found the food very good with lots of variety and fresh fruit. The shows were excellent but the bad did not outweigh the good. The ship is noisy with no place to sit and read. There was not much to do on sea days, in the evenings there were shows but in the daytime it was just drinking and gambling which I don’t do.
We missed the Bermuda ...
We chose this cruise as we wanted to see Bermuda. Unfortunately the weather meant we couldn’t dock there which is understandable but as it appears to be a regular issue NCL should warn you beforehand.
We were fortunate to have a Haven cabin and with a separate lounge and bedroom it was fantastic. Very well appointed with lots of room and loads of storage. The bed was fantastic - so comfortable ...
