Good Panama Canal Cruise
"I did put a note to the cruise director (who I met on day one at sea at a Cruise Critic Meet and Greet session) about this mis-information, but like other complaints and niggles I have sent NCL, I got no response.- No, as having pre-cruise customer service niggles, and having to endure 11 nights of showers was for me too long – (I so enjoyed my long soak in the bathtub once we checked into our Miami hotel, post cruise!..."Read More

Good Panama Canal Cruise

Review for a Panama Canal & Central America Cruise on Norwegian Pearl

2-5 Cruises • Age 20s

My husband and I booked this cruise nearly 2 years ago for my 60th Birthday, we booked a club balcony suite on Deck 11, which at the time of booking had a bathtub. Sadly, due to refurbishment, on sail date it had only a shower (which I hate). Boarding We boarded a little later than scheduled which is not good when the terminal building is filling fast, seating is full up and there is only ...

My husband (DH) and I just returned from 11 days in the Caribbean on the Norwegian Pearl, in an aft penthouse suite (#8132). The cruise was a partial transit through the Panama Canal. The following are our observations - a wonderful time, with a couple of small hiccups along the way. Embarkation: We embarked in Miami. The new NCL terminal B is beautiful, but things got off to a rocky start ...

It was when I read "One Night Only with Matt" that I knew they'd stopped caring about the Pearl or anyone on it...

A LITTLE BACKGROUND: My two children (11 and 20) and I chose this cruise because we had 'Piece of Mind credits' that were about to expire. Well... Correction: My two children (11 and 20) and I chose this cruise because we'd never been to Central America before, and thought the Canal would be a pretty interesting spot through which to traverse. We'd also been somewhat disappointed by how ...

Excellent Cruise!

We selected this cruise to celebrate our 45th Wedding Anniversary and wanted to make it truly special. NCL came through on all fronts. The new Miami Port is spectacular and we were welcomed like royalty. There were plenty of food options from main dining to a pub to Asian fusion to specialty dining. The food was also hot on arrival, seasoned and delicious. The entertainment was most ...

Finally able to cruise again. A veteran of many cruises the crew this time was the friendliest. The food was excellent. I was sailing with my wife,her mom and my cousin all in a club balconey. The couch made into a great bed . Plenty of room for my wife and I. 671 people on a ship that can hold 2500. Now is the time to cruise. It is a shame to see the ship this empty but it is good for us.we ...

We had a wonderful cruise and we’re blessed enough to stay in the Haven- Amazing staff especially Amit . The bathroom was remodeled February 2022. The bathtub was removed and an oversized shower is now in its place. Showering while looking out the windows in the shower was a surreal experience. Huge improvement. The double sink vanities and marble countertops provided a clean, modern ...

I have cruised NCL on the Epic in the Med a few years back with my mother, I decided to try NCL again because the Epic was good value for money and the staff and food were good. BAD Idea! Took 3 hours to board and the food - my lord, the food was inedible at times. I understand during the days of COVID you are going to have to wait for testing, but NCL was not prepared for this. We waited ...

Very Disappointed with Customer Service and Quality of Cruise

Review for a Panama Canal & Central America Cruise on Norwegian Pearl

I started going on cruises just a few years ago with a trip to Alaska for my 50th birthday with Holland America. Awesome Trip! Sailed with them again and wondered if all cruise lines were similar. So booked Norwegian for my Godchild’s birthday and during the cruise found out they were not the same. Began by spending a few bucks extra to have a balcony room just a few days before the trip. In ...
