Getaway is Just a Smoky Casino

Review for a Bermuda Cruise on Norwegian Getaway

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

This is a terrible ship if you are at all sensitive or averse to cigarette smoke. The casino is the center point of the ship and you have to pass it if you want to eat or shop etc. It’s just a floating casino don’t be fooled. I had to stay in my stateroom a lot to avoid the smoke. The theater and library/game room are tiny for the amount of passengers. Not much w/o an extra fee for ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

Bimini cruise The room stewart was great he did such a good job. We had a balcony room it was really clean, the chairs outside were in great shape. So let talk food, needless to say it was very hit or miss, never once did we have a hot breakfast the rest of the food was luke warm or cold. If want to eat after any kind of entertainment forget it nothing is open. Tables never cleaned off had to ...

This was the worst cruise i have ever been on in 26 cruises. Every single service area has something wrong with it. The marketplace lido deck did not have working water machines. It was nothing bacon or regular sausage for days until the last day of the cruise. The guest services refuse to provide service and was very argumentative and did not want to provide service to platinum guests. The ...

This cruise from start to finish was the worst experience I’ve ever experienced! - over crowded pools and hot tubs. Was not a safe situation! Especially in the hot tubs. Never went in even once! - long lines for food! Much of it was over cooked! - Customer service line was constantly long, no matter what times of day. - Yes this was the cruise that caught fire!!! Deck 9 was a mess, ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

Horror Cruise! Norwengian is no longer Norwengian! Since COVID, NCL cruises have deteriorated in an inexplicable way. We are on board the Dawn crossing from Africa to Europe. An outbreak of gastroenteritis on board. Hundreds with diarrhea, including crew. The same ship, on the last cruise before this one, had already been quarantined on the Mauritius Coast with cholera suspected. It seems they ...

Drastic Disillusionment with DCL

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Disney Dream

We've sailed with Disney twice before--once in 2016, on the Magic, and again in 2018, on the Fantasy. The Disney Magic was our first ever cruise with anyone and we loved the experience. We loved the ambiance, we loved the food, and we loved the feeling that came with the impression that we were well taken care of. Seven years and six months later, and our experience on the Dream was almost the ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 50s

From start to finish this was a subpar vacation for our kids. Way too crowded, buffet was not good & worse of all was that the service sucked. Trying to find a fun, charismatic bartender was not possible. We couldn't even try to throw out extra mobey for decent service. Pathetic! Then to top it off, post sailing we get a reimbursement check for an overcharge. Then 2 weeks post sailing we get ...

Trust me don't go on the Epic

10+ Cruises • Age 50s

We have cruised multiple times with multiple cruise lines this was such a disappointment to our group of 10 and a 16 month old. I will make this easy to review: 1. Long waits for everything 2. Since the casino is so large and covers so much of the 6th floor on the boat there is a constant smell of cigarette smoke on the floors above and below. 3. The kiddy pool is the size of a blowup ...

Ship was over 4 hours late departing. Check in was a disaster, took 3 hours of waiting in lines to board the boat. Also, parking was $315 for the week. Food is beyond terrible. I ate oatmeal and cereal everyday. We even ate at a speciality restaurant, ocean blue, and our meals were disgusting. People next to us were sending them back as well. Savory, taste, tropicana all of the included ...

10+ Cruises • Age 40s

I have been on 14 cruises (4 Disney, 4 NCL, 3 Carnival, 2 Tradewinds catamarans, and 1 Costa). I am most disappointed with NCL. The service has gotten worse. I do like the NCL’s ports I’ve sailed (Bermuda, Mexican Pacific, Western Caribbean and Hawaii) but I would have had a better experience visiting those ports with another cruise line, or even sticking to resorts and getting a rental car. As ...
