Not sure why this ship gets so much heat on here, I regretted reading this a few days before the cruise.
Yes its a quirky ship, but its really quite a fun one too. The Caribbean sailings have been full at capacity, so of course there have been some lines. Famously the upstairs wave bar, but the bartenders work very quickly and work very very hard. Serving multiple people at one time, the lines ...
This was my second cruise on the epic and it was such a great time! The food was great especially from taste the restaurant. The crew members were so nice and helpful. The bartenders were always accommodating. And the entertainment was perfect! The Chocolatin Band was absolutely the party starters on the cruise. Went to every single of of their shows because they were that amazing! The talent in ...
We just returned from a repositional cruise on the NCL Epic, which departed from San Juan, PR on 4/14/23 and arrived in NYC on 4/22/23 after stopping at St. Kitts, Antigua, St. Marteen, St. Thomas and Amber Cover (DR).
This was our 14th NCL cruise and 3rd since the restart. I traveled with my wife and we stayed in an inside room. Also, we cruised on the NCL Epic in 2014.
Our cruise on the ...
My perspective is based on having stayed in the Haven. In spite of the reviews found on this site, we were hopeful for a different experience. We had a wonderful time with family and friends on our trip. Whatever staffing issues mentioned in previous reviews were not apparent during our trip. The Haven crew was excellent! We stayed in a 2-bedroom family villa. It was amazing! While six people ...
We are Sapphire members with Norwegian . We chose this cruise because we have never taken a Southern Carribean cruise.
We booked the Haven 2 bedroom Villa. We had the best time of our lives on this cruise.
Our Butler and Room attendant took very good care of our needs on the cruise. The concierge booked the specialty restaurant for us. We only went to Le Bistro which the food and waiters ...
I don't know what ship the negative reviewers were on, perhaps they dont know to manage their own expectations. My experience was lovely. People complain about the ship design? If you didn't study the layout and aspects of fhe ship prior to booking and then get on board only to complain about the layout and aspects that's a "you" problem. You chose it. I found it no funkier than any other cruise ...
We just got off the Norwegian Epic one week ago and although I rarely do this, I felt it necessary to post this review. My wife and I read a significant number of reviews prior to sailing and, much to our chagrin, many were extremely negative. We really began to question our decision but the itinerary was what ultimately made the decision and we are so glad we hung in there. The entire experience, ...
Sailed out of San Juan which was a great port to start with. I have read mixed reviews about this ship and was not as excited for the ship as I was for the Southern Caribbean itinerary. However, it was a great ship and I found it very easy to navigate. I've been on the Breakaway and really liked that ship too.
Food review- My first stop on embarkation day was to O'Sheehans. That was meh...in ...
We chose the Southern Caribbean because we had never been to Aruba, Curacao, St Lucia or St Kitts from San Juan. Could have done 2 more ports but I really enjoy sea days. This was our 10th cruise with Norwegian and as a platinum member love the perks.
I loved our room. It was very spacious with a big balcony and bathroom. I'm not sure if I would do an aft facing room again. It was very loud ...
Everything about the cruise was great! Full crew to serve 1/4 the passengers. No waiting for anything. Didn't hear about anyone getting covid on board. 8 days of utter bliss! BURN THE FLOOR dance on the second night was great. The kind of show that used to be on cruise lines. The ports didn't matter to us but they were very good. Mask requirements were not that bad. Wear them inside while walking ...
