"One of the luggage attendants told us we could check with guest services after our luggage was delivered, if it was no longer attached to our suitcase when our luggage was delivered to our room.I am sure all cruise lines are suffering post covid, so can’t really compare fairly, but we did notice the difference in how long we had to wait for different services and how engaging staff was...."Read More

1-10 of 566 Norwegian Escape Cruise Reviews for Family to the Western Caribbean
Had a fantastic time on this cruise! Myself and husband in our 40's. Two teenage daughters 16,17.
Rooms- We had a balcony cabin which was perfect. A little smaller than RC or carnival but still great! We only slept here and got ready.
Our kids had an inside cabin across the hall (ish). It was nice but of course they hated not having a window or door especially because they never knew what ...
This was my seventh cruise and my fifth NCL cruise. We had a balcony room near the back of the boat on the 11th floor. The room was quiet and the room and balcony are exactly what I had expected of a newer large NCL or RCI ship,
I've always discounted reviews of others when they posted negative reviews of food. I'm not a particularly 'foodie' type person. I will clarify my thoughts by saying ...
Overall, we had a great time. This was our first NCL cruise, only cruised Princess in the past. We went with another couple and we all had a great time. Food was okay in the Main dining rooms, Specialty dining was better, but not much. We don't get caught up with that, as we realize they are preparing for 4000 + guests and specialty came with the package. the 150 minutes of wifi was a joke, we ...
I highly recommend the escape for your next or very first cruise. I had my very first cruise on this ship and the staff were super friendly and helpful. Jack the cruise director and his staff were super engaged with passengers which made going to different events very enjoyable. I recommend booking the Mexican cuisine workshop and tasting at Playa Mia in Cozumel it was my favorite excursion that I ...
Our housekeeper, wait staff Rakeesh and Rama, waitress from LA Cucinda I believe she is from Panama very professional and Stephen, and our cruise director Jack awesome ppl. The groups and shows were fantastic. We shall cruise again on this cruise ship and its line. I would love to have seen more shows to attend, however overall we were pleased with most of all departments being courteous and ...
This was our first time on one of NCL's larger ships - and may be our last. The layout of the Escape leaves something to be desired, because when ship is at full capacity it's hard to even walk properly on some decks. We spent over an hour trying to find just two chairs together on any deck on the sea days - and I'm not exaggerating. The atrium area gets so crowded for shows that you cannot even ...
This was our first cruise and NCL has made us return customers. I had read some of the reviews on this site prior to sailing and was a little concerned! After our 7 days, there was absolutely nothing bad enough that would keep us from coming back.
The highs: the staff, the activities for kids (ours are 2 & 4), the rooms, the cleanliness, the constant cleaning, the food, the itinerary, ship ...
We chose this cruise because we were able to make it work for all six of us in our group. The entertainment offerings were sorely lacking. The only show that we enjoyed was The Choir of Man, and that show was only available a couple evenings.
We ate in the dining room “Savor” three times, at “Teppanyaki” once, “Moderno” twice and “The supper Club” once. The food was good everywhere except at ...
My family and I have always loved cruising with NCL. We have referred them to multiple people and always chose them over the others. However this sailing will be our last . It's our first cruise since COVID-19, and what a disappointment! Food has gone downhill; good steak or lobster? That's extra now! Wife made reservations months ago for the Savor since we are traveling as a small group of 13, ...
We took the Norwegian Escape on a one week Caribbean cruise with family members and had mixed success. First the positives :
The onboard entertainment was exceptional, the staff were very friendly and very helpful, the meals were tasty with a lot of variety to choose from and the specialty restaurants were all excellent.
Now the negatives that we feel we need to share :
- don’t book your ...
