A New Way of Cruising

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Norwegian Prima

We sailed the Prima out of Port Canaveral....excited that it was a new ship and that Norwegian touted it as their newest ship and that it was "A new way of cruising". Norwegian was exactly right..... it was a new way of cruising. We've cruised with Royal Carribean, Carnival, MSC and Norwegian in the past. We had taken 10 cruises up to that time, and this was one of the worst experiences that we've ...

This was my fourth cruise, and the first on NCL. My prior three cruises were all Carnival (Glory, Breeze, Magic). I will start by saying the Prima is "nice" in that it is brand new, well decorated, and very clean. My stateroom was a family balcony, 15772. Ports were Cozumel > Grand Caymen > Ocho Rios, Jamaica > Great Stirrup Cay. I traveled with my wife. We are 41/39 years old. The ...

Pros: Great air conditioning Beautiful decor Abundant outdoor spaces Nice, large shower Quick elevators Cons: Staff generally unhappy or lack a desire to provide a great customer experience. Our only positive experiences with staff were at Los Lobos and Hasuki. Staff in some shops were actually pretty rude. Most things closed way too early, no stadium, pools, go karts, ...

This is our 4th Norwegian cruise and for the FIRST time I am extremely disappointed! We cruise on different cruise lines and Prima it’s NOT worth your money, if you are looking for a good experience. They tried to make the infinity pool the highlight but you can’t fit more than 20 people and there is no pool big enough and the only pool that’s worth is The Vibe and they want you to pay to go in!! ...

Very Disappointing Cruise

We planed this cruise eight months in advance. It was my retirement cruise . We counted down the days until we were finally onboard. This was our 7th NCL cruise, with most of them exceeding our expectations. From the moment we stepped onboard, the disappointments started. There were no entertainment shows available and specialty dining restaurants were booked. We tried to keep our heads up and be ...

Where can I start.. we do not have all week. But here is the overall : I returned from this cruise and can only say I loved the entertainment..only and my company. 1: staff unfriendly 2: layout of boat, choppy and overwhelming 3: make sure you make a reservation, oh wait.. you cant unless your VIP or THE HAVEN.. ( maybe) make sure you carve out time to wait to get in last min.. bc ...

A little about us: 4 Passengers Low 40's 2 Platinums, 2 Sapphires 15th NCL Cruise, 11th in the Haven Cabin: See below. Concierge: I'll make this is own section since this is what probably affected us the most. Upon getting on board we were put into the Haven Lounge with about 200 other people, it was packed. There was a desk off to the side with two concierge people with ...

If this is your Prima, you could be a Dreama!

My wife and I have taken a number of cruises on different cruise lines. This was our second Haven cruise on NCL and went on a Caribbean cruise on the Prima. Checking in and embarkation went very smoothly. Had a nice lunch at the Haven restaurant. Watched some of the football games, hung out at the Haven pool area - which is tone of the nicest pool areas I have been in. On one level there is ...

Disappointment with Norwegian Cruise Lines (Prima)

I am writing this review today as my travel agent requested I do so with the hopes that Norwegian Cruise Lines will take my comments and concerns seriously. I have cruised with Norwegian several times before and have always had a wonderful time. I wish I could say the same for this last cruise that I have just returned from on the Prima. I have just returned from a cruise on the Prima and was ...

Form over function describes the Prima

The Prima is a beautiful ship, but it became apparent that form over function was in play. The Ocean Blvd was cool, but the Casino was cramped and unappealing. Syd Norman's was a disaster - no seating, crowded, claustrophobic. So was the Improv. The Premrose atrium was underwhelming and unattractive. I stayed in the Haven 2-bedroom Owner's suite and was disappointed with many things: a wall with 2 ...
