Excellent cruise but in part because ship was half full
"The ship offers no excursions there and it an inadequate job of explaining what amenities were available on the Island (essentially none) and what we were supposed to do there.All of the available seating was routinely occupied again with the ship ONLY HALF FULL...."Read More

This is our 3rd time on a cruiseship, 1st time on this one. The waiters and bar staff were amazing, got on better with them than the passengers. Food was good, Cabin was ok, we asked for an Oceanview and got a porthole, a big deal breaker for me was no access to do laundry or ironing, you had to pay to have your laundry done and was very expensive especially being from NZ and everything was in ...

Overall, I like this ship with all the improvements and updates. And as long as things are going good, the crew is very helpful. However, after taking all precautions and wearing a mask every day, about 3/4 of the way into to cruise I test positive for Covid 19. I did the right thing by reporting my situation to the medical center on the ship. At this point, cruise service became basically ...

I chose the trip for the itinerary, but also like this size of ship. I prefer ships which can go through the older locks of the Panama Canal and prefer ships without water slides and amusement park type rides because I go on the cruise ships for the places they visit and the convenience of living on the ship between shore visits. I also like having the smaller number of people on the ship, ...

#NCLSpiritoftheSeason #norwegiancruiselineauz #NorwegianSpirit Wow just had an amazing time being shown the Norwegian Spirit. NCL Australia organised a competition that gave the lucky winners a chance to go onboard and see the newly refurbished Spirit, it included a full ship tour, dinner and a show. Firstly, a HUGE thank you to so many people involved in this promotion as it made ...

The staff on Norwegian Spirit were excellent. Especially the dining waiters and cooks. This was helped being the ship was only half full but they were always smiling and helpful with any requests. The food was always fresh, tasty and plenty of variety. Definitely the highlight of our cruise was the island of Moorea. A short boat cruise from the dock took us to a spot waist deep so ...

Polynesia was on our bucket list and the timing for this cruise worked out. We've sailed on Norwegian before and were generally pleased although those were on larger/newer ships. The itinerary was Tahiti to Sydney with stops in Moorea, Bora Bora, Samoa, and FIJI (two stops here at Lautoka and Dravuni). We were a little surprised to get an text message 2 days before sailing about the need to ...

Nothing to do onboard - excursions were overpriced and many were sub-par

We have sailed on NCL 5 times in the past and never had a bad experience before. This was only the second cruise for the Spirit since the ship returned to service after covid and it showed. It was fortunate the cruise was only half full, any more people onboard and it would have been a mess. The food was good, the main entertainment in the show lounge was excellent, but there was nothing to do ...

Wasnt the cruise we wanted. Nor. kept canceling , changing the rules on our desired cruises. Then told us we had to use our credits this year or lose them. $12,000. Numerous issues. We will never cruise on Nor. again. Despite what they say, their cruise app doesn’t work after you board. Lost out on many excursions as a result. Tried to force my wife through a metal detector, despite ...
