Norwegian Bermuda Cruise Reviews

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 ...

This cruise had a great itinerary that started by leaving from NYC (no flying for us) and doing some really good ports including Turks & Caicos, the Dominican Republic, Curacao, Costa Rica, and a full transit of the Panama Canal. Then I learned from CruiseCritic (not from NCL!!) that Grand Turk and Curacao were replaced by Bermuda (which we missed anyway, due to weather conditions) and Catalina ...

On January 11, 2023, my wife and I boarded the Norwegian Gem for a trip from Manhattan to Bermuda and back. We’d been on the Gem before, the first sailing post-pandemic out of Miami, and on the Epic in the Mediterranean. We had excellent experiences on both of those cruises and were expecting to have a really good time. (See ...

I was on the NCL Breakaway in Oct 2023 with my family and had a great vacation to Canada! The GEM was a totally different experience. Bartenders need to be more attentive and friendlier. Some are rude particular the bartenders in the Outdoor bar on the rear of the ship and below O'sheehan's was hit and miss. They are not greeting and don't keep track of the order in which people arrive to the bar. ...

This was our second cruise on NCL. The first (to Mexico early last year) was so positively memorable that we really looked forward to the Getaway cruise leaving NYC on New Year's Day. However, our experience with this Getaway cruise could not be more negative. I am very surprised that the other reviews of this sailing were not universally negative. First, the change in itinerary. We believe that ...

We wanted a short getaway with my 3 elementary school-age granddaughters. We love cruising. Since 1981 we have cruised over 100 times, on many different lines worldwide and we have certainly seen the industry and the ships evolve to the luxurious vessels at sea today. But, NCL has away to go to catch up in the evolutionary chain. By far, the biggest problem is communication...or the lack ...

I chose the cruise for the price and convenience. I always envision a great cruise as less than $100/day with drinks included - Norwegian cruise lines often offers this deal. This time they also offered free specialty dining AND $50 toward any shore excursion. A total win! I have done Norwegian cruises before and have very much enjoyed them. This one had the most frustrating cruise check-in ...

Second cruise on NCL in 18 years, now I know why we waited this long. First cruise on on NCL Majesty and that was average at best. We cruise often and just came off on RCCL Oasis and that was outstanding. This cruise fit our time slot and was out of NY, very convenient. This is where the good began and ended. Ship was four hours late getting into Port Of NY due to rough seas, understandable. The ...

We were a group of 19 people and wanted to cruise and visit the Azores and Bermuda on our transatlantic cruise. We ended up 9 days at sea with no stops in port. The only compensation we received was a $200 non refundable on ship credit. There was not much for entertainment onboard but the crew were great. This cruise sucked and I would not recommend it to anyone. The food was mediocre but ...

First, I would like to say this is our 4th cruise with Norwegian and third in the last three years. Our last 2 were on the Norwegian Gem. Our first was on the Majesty 22 years ago for our honeymoon to Bermuda. We figured it was time to go back to Bermuda and the Joy was the option that would line up with our available times off. Let me say that we were not impressed with Norwegian this time. ...
