New York (Manhattan) to the USA Cruise Reviews

Sailed on a 5 day NCL cruise from NY to Bermuda. This was my 6th NCL cruise and definitely enjoy the NCL freestyle experience. This cruise was no different. As always with NCL we received the free at sea promotion and definitely took advantage of the drink package throughout. Bars were great- from the brew house, to the wine cellar, to the mojito bar and nightclub, was a great drinking 5 days ...

We love NCL; this was our fourth cruise with them. Started with a weather issue and Bermuda drop as a port; we did not find this out until we were in the check-in line. Not a problem, no one can control the weather! With this change, our itinerary was reversed from the original plan. NCL service is great and one of the reasons we love it; helpful staff, nice and clean public areas, pool, ...

I booked this cruise as a last minute getaway as a solo traveler - I was quite nervous about the ship after reading the reviews, but decided to take the risk and I'm so glad I did! Y'all are a bunch of complainers! I've cruised with Royal, Holland and Celebrity and I'd put NCL right up there with all of them. Ship - Many reviews mention the age of the ship showing, but I didn't find this to be ...

My family (me, husband, 2 kids ages 6 and 12) recently went on the Carnival Venezia. It was the first cruise ever for my husband and kids, and my first cruise since I was a teenager, so I don’t have much to compare it to! That being said, we all had a great experience. The whole ship was beautifully decorated, and everything appeared to be very well-maintained. The staff were truly top notch; ...

This was my first time on an NCL ship after years of sailing Celebrity and Royal Caribbean, and I was apprehensive - but the price for my solo studio cabin was SO much less than sailing solo on either of those lines that I decided it was worth taking a chance. I obsessively read reviews of Getaway beforehand and was pretty worried about the smoke-in-the-atrium issue and the overcrowding issue, ...

Traveling with adult friends age 60’s, enjoyed being with friends no matter what. Food was good , better at specialty dining. Service outstanding from waiter Ryan at Savors, the only one who asked us if we wanted coffee and also cleaned crumbs off the table. He was also smiling pleasant humorous and showed he loved his job. The adult outdoor H2O sunny area with 2 whirlpools and a small wading ...

This was our 7th cruise with Carnival. First time cruising out of New York. Also our first time visiting New York. We stayed 2 nights prior to the cruise, at the Comfort Inn Midtown. The hotel is only about 1-1/2 blocks from the port so it was very easy walking to the ship on embarkation day. The cruise port is not as big as the ports in Florida so it was a bit more crowded, but overall, ...

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 ...

This is a lovely cruise ship and the staff are very kind and accommodating. We enjoyed the cruise. There are a few things that could have been better and briefly they are: The pool area/ hot tubs were overrun by what I can only call a rough crowd. Picture four hot tubs full of drunk obese people who seldom leave the tubs. They just sit in an overflowing tub all day while the empty beer cans and ...

As far as NCL ships go I liked the Getaway as I also liked her sister the Breakaway. I found the ship roomy with lots of nice spaces and lots of things to do. I use the Spice H2O during the day because it is adult only and the service there is always good. The complementary restaurants were excellent yet redundant on a 10 day cruise. The specialty restaurants were very good and food was plentiful. ...
