Amazingly quite good
"The ship is nice even though there are a few thousand people on there quite a few places to hide and keep yourselves to yourself
The food was nice and tasty
The staff were nice in all areas no concerns at all
The internet isn’t worth it at all, the count down once logging on takes a minute off you straight away but we had 120 minutes for free but if you chat with the internet man he is really good and polite
We had the drinks package but on a few occasions there was NO Malbec in the restaurants not sure why.We found the balcony room ok the shower room was quite big we were in 10624, but one thing that bugged me was the room cleaning attendant used to open our door to give us the next days program - so put do not disturb on your door - also to note there is only 1 turn down per day not an evening turn down either which is not good
Overall we enjoyed the cruise and would travel again on the Gem but I would be very careful over the decision on which ports we were to stop at
A lot of sea days are not..."Read More

We chose this Caribbean cruise as it sailed from New York and we wanted to spend 3 days before joining the ship. Also the drinks package and speciality dinning for 2 nights was a factor.
First the good points: The staff are super friendly and we had good service on the whole. Cagneys and Moderna speciality restaurants were superb. The complimenary Asian restaurant was also very good.

First Time Cruiser • Age 30s
11 nights sailing the Eastern Caribbean on the Norwegian Gem was my very first cruise experience. I kept my expectations low, but I was pleasantly surprised. Obviously, I have some pros and cons as a first-time cruiser so let's start with the embarkation experience from the NYC port.
Embarkation:
NCL should list the pier number for NYC embarking cruise ships in advance. When I called ...

We have been cruising for 20 years and thought we would give this ship a try
Yet again Grand Turk was cancelled about 3 months before sailing and Bermuda was replaced
We had been to most of the places on our itinerary but thought oh well let’s go !!

Chose this cruise at last minute because it departed and returned from New York City, no fly for us. Needed a respite from winter. And price was right. This was our first NCL cruise since an ill fated cruise on the NCL Star which blew an engine, modified our itinerary and we received no consideration for ruining our once in a lifetime Southeast Asia cruise.
Boarding was easy, no wait. ...

We decided to book a cruise late minute and found 5 day NCL Gem to Bermuda. Despite of the stress in dealing with the Bermuda travel authority we boarded the ship as normal. We expected a long process to board being our first cruise since the restart but it was quick. The Gem is a smaller ship so everything was close and convenient. The live bands were great especially Natural Mystic in the Magnum ...

We had a wonderful time on the Gem! We’ve met new friends along the way also the ship has a friendly crew. The Gem seemed like it was lacking crewmen. Service was somewhat subpar in some cases. Service at Cagneys on our second specialty reservation was awful. Any ways we had a great time on her. I was not impressed with the casino staff, I had requested my points to be transferred from the other ...

THE GOOD
Cabin and balcony size, bathroom and shower, fixtures, fittings and furnishings throughout most of the ship - especially the deck furniture- modern comfortable and plenty choice, we loved the "pods" at the front;
Choice, quality and presentation of food in the Garden Cafe, the free coffee and juice being much better than on our previous cruise line.
Itinerary - good ...

Back from Bermuda (2 days at sea, 3days in Hamilton, 1 day at sea) on NCL Gem from Manhattan. Overall really enjoyed and needed this vacay!
We are late 30's with a 3yo. We cruise annually, usually with whomever has the right price!
Booked a balcony portside -â€" 9524
A few thoughts
1) Parking at the port is $30/day. We found a garage at W 53rd (port at 49th) and lugged our stuff over ($140 ...

We're 40- something couple, have enjoyed NCL freestyle and decided to try an aft penthouse suite to maximize our relaxation on our first visit to Bermuda. After reading alot on CC about the NCL suite experience, my DH and I felt well equipped to anticipate what it would be like. I guess that even with all that we read, there's still a "learning curve" to adjusting to the suite perks, but ...

POSITIVES:
Absolutely loved our Aft Penthouse Suite with large balcony, the room was the best part of our cruise and we spent many hours on the deck (i.e., having nice lounge chairs, non-windy location with fabulous views)
Our room steward was very nice, attentive and thorough.
Concierge and Butler were both extremely responsive to any requests, although we hardly used their ...
