We just got off the Norwegian Joy after a 7 day Caribbean cruise to Honduras, Belize, Caya Maya, and Cozumel.. The vacation was awesome, and the food was excellent. My brother has trouble walking long distances and they went out of their way to make our embarking and departing easier for us. They put us in the shorter lines and mobility lines.
I would like to give a special thanks to the best ...
This was my first cruise, and I am so happy that I was able to go on one. The organization and skill of employees and staff was fantastic. The staff was so friendly, in every department of the ship. The restaurants were nicely furnished, the staff was so accommodating, and the food was outstanding. The events that were scheduled were professionally done. I really enjoyed the show entitled ...
First off, the ship was way too crowded. You can't walk out of the stateroom without having to push people away. The main pool was literally more human than the actual water in the pool. The slides and ropes coarse were closed the whole time for some reason, and we were charged random daily fees that we didn't know about ($80 a day). Worst of all, we didn't even go to our last location because of ...
We just did our first cruise this past week. The food, services, cleanliness, and attendees were wonderful. The only thing that we did not appreciate is how their employees were being exploited. I noticed fairly quickly that all the servers, attendees cools, housekeepers were from very poor countries. The only white faces who were part of the crew was the captain, entertainment, and onboarding. I ...
My wife and I had an amazing time on board the Norwegian Joy.
To start with, the workers at the pier were rude. The gentleman begged for a tip, and lied when he said he’d be bring our our suitcases to our room. When our bags did get to our room a big dent in one corner of my wife’s luggage. Be ready for cabs, hotel transportation and other ways for you to get to the terminal to have signs ...
The food is just awful, no other way to describe. Tbe rice in the buffet put a whole new level of Al dente. Buffet is tge worst, hard to believe any chef would put that stuff out. The chairs in the Stardust are worn out, you sink so low hard to get out.
Our room was clean and the bed moderately comfortable. The decks could use some paint, rusted and paint chips on the floor.
Crew in the ...
Food was great, staff were nice and friendly. We had a good time. The cruise director & captain were funny and witty. I’m giving them 2 stars because of the “Kids Zone”, our trip was predicated on having our 3-yr old go to splash zone while we attended our specialty dining, gambling and occasional drinks, however the staff and policies at the Kid Zone (splash zone) were horrible! ) they wouldn’t ...
Just came back from the 7 day Southern Caribbean on the Viva. Family of five with three teenagers.
Overall, an amazing cruise....one of the best out of many we have taken. We are used to the mega ships of Royal, and I wondered if the Viva would feel too small. I quickly realized it's fine. It really is a beautiful ship. I read many negative reviews here, but once being on the ship, I ...
It was a great ship. It took me a day or two to get familiar with the layout, but after that, it was easy to navigate around.
The food was excellent. The buffet offered a wide variety of options, ranging from simple finger food to Asian and East Indian cuisine. The specialty restaurants were amazing and the food was top-notch.
The staff and crew were friendly and super helpful. It's ...
This was my first Cruise and I had a hard time from the very beginning. First I was crossing the street to get into the lobby of Encore Norwegian to catch the ship. I was almost run down by the crossing guard. Second did not know i could leave my luggage at terminal. I struggled to bring them to the 10th floor of my cabin. 3rd I called for room service only to be told to call Housekeeping and when ...
