Review for Norwegian Getaway to Bahamas

Full Disclosure, I do currently own stock in Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings (NCLH), though to be blunt this is not a positive review and I likely won’t be sailing with NCL in the future (for details keep reading). As much as I would love to recommend this company and this ship (for my own personal financial benefit), I simply cannot. I had some major issues along with many, many minor issues ...

Getaway, March 18th - the Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Back from an 8 day sail from NYC to FL/Bahamas. Here’s the Good, Bad, and Ugly. For some background, this was my 23rd sail with NCL, my 24th cruise overall. The majority of my NCL’s are reviewed on here. I had a family balcony on deck 13, traveling solo. The Good: Service by the crew was excellent. Hearing rumblings online with the change to once a day cleaning, I found my steward ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

I have never cruised before, and I took the 8-night cruise out of New York to the Bahamas and Florida with an experienced cruiser as my companion because the travel dates on this Norwegian trip worked for our schedules and we could avoid flying to the departure point in Manhattan. I had low expectations, but Norwegian still managed to be a complete disappointment. Embarkation was pretty orderly ...

We went on this cruise because it was going to stop in Florida for a day and a half so My Wife could see her Sister. Well we were supposed to get in Port Canaveral by 1pm didn't get there until 10pm. So those plans got ruined. Next we went to their island in the Bahamas. We were supposed to to Bermuda from there and that got screwed over some excuse. There idea was to go to Nassau for the day. Ha! ...

We are a family of 3 (41, 39 and 7). My husband and son get bored on the all-inclusive vacations I love, so we thought we'd try the haven "ship within a ship" concept with NCL. In short, we loved it and have already booked our next trip. The Great: The haven facilities, staff, food and beverages were fantastic. We ate nearly every meal at the Haven restaurant and found it to be far better ...

Have sailed on NCL on 3 occasions and 2 other cruise lines as well. Had minor issues on previous cruises but nothing worth a negative review and had enjoyable experiences. This current one was terrible, from the food to thedelays and the confusion on board. You can tell the ship was way understaffed and the crew was exhausted trying to keep up with their responsibilities. But they still did their ...

Getaway? I would suggest stay away...

NCL is unfortunately diminishing their brand and their product, which is most evident on this particular ship. The Getaway has no show band or orchestra, the production shows are old and few and far between. The cruise director could be heard introducing theater entertainers remotely, but was rarely seen before the shows, so there was no prep for the next day's port procedures. The authentic ...

Winter Break on the Getaway

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

My two grandkids had winter break ( New York Metro area) and we all needed a break. We love sailing from New York ( Westside pier) as it is a half hour from our house. We picked the kids and my daughter up at nine and were in the Haven waiting area by 9:45. This itinerary had undergone multiple changes. They eliminated Norfolk ( we lost our day in Colonial Williamsburg) added and subtracted ...

10+ Cruises • Age 50s

This is my third Norwegian cruise, and it will be my last. Our itinerary changed several times before we sailed. They took away Virginia and added in Miami, then took away Miami. When we were at Cape Canaveral they added Miami back and took away Bermuda (weather related). The NCL application (9.95 per person) worked inconsistently. Everything I went to use it, I needed to disconnect and ...

My husband and I traveled with our two adult children, our son-in-law and our two grandchildren.There were 7 of us in three cabins. If I add up what everyone spent on this trip it probably came close to $26,000 not including air fare, hotel, and personal expenses. If I add that in it was closer to $30,000. We had a 2 bedroom Haven cabin and the grandchildren stayed with us, one adult child had a ...
