This was my first cruise. My wife booked this to celebrate our 35th anniversary. I was expecting an upscale experience from Norwegian compared to the lower cost lines.
Our first experience was a thirty minute wait to get a drink. I assumed that this was early crowds just arriving but the wait times didn't really get much better. We spent some time in the pool area but left because the sound ...
Had issues on day one and they just haunted my girlfriend and I throughout our trip. A paid for drink package, that we had ample proof of.( email from NCL and our itemized reservation.) Couldn’t get it on our room card at the check in, computer issues were blamed and we were told to see Guest Services once onboard the ship. Here’s where it starts to unravel, gentleman we dealt with was virtually a ...
When I saw the advertisement for $199 for the 5 day Bahama cruise, I couldn't pass it up. We booked it about two weeks prior to departure, chose the drink package and two specialty dining meals.
Getting on and off the ship at the beginning and end of the cruise was a breeze. We were checked in promptly and offered water to drink while waiting. For debarkation, we elected to walk off, and since ...
This was my husband's and my first cruise and we enjoyed it. Norwegian offered a great deal on the cruise with many added perks. Expect to spend an additional $200-300 each in other charges and on board purchases. We even had $150 on board spending credits and $100 in spa credits, and no booked excursions. We had a balcony cabin on deck 10 and loved our room. It was plenty room for the two of us. ...
We chose a short 5 day cruise with 2 beach stops to relax after a 6 month chemo. Treatment. We chose an inside cabin which we only did once before( and never again ) to keep costs down.
Embarkation was smooth but not the seas that first night. To quote george costanza "the seas were angry my friend", rocking and rolling. This added to the pleasure of an inside cabin. Our first beach day was ...
I chose this ship, because it is one of the best in class for service and friendless. (there are only two in class: The Sky & The Sun). The better dance choice is The NCL Sun, if you like live music and great dance floors, it is better on the Sun than on the Sky. The Latin band, 440 duo, is an excellent band, I cruised three times over the last two months just to go back and party with them, ...
The food was horrible, service was not great, front desk was no help at all. The boat was rocking more than any boat I ever been on the first and last night. When I went to the front desk in the middle of the night to get water because my girlfriend was throwing up from all the rocking they sent me to the back of the ship. Not to mention water isn't included on your all you can drink package, it ...
This was our first cruise and was booked for us as a surprise by very good friends of ours.
We had a fantastic time and would love to go again soon.
The ship was beautiful and clean and everyone we met were super friendly and helpful.
The cabin, was beautiful and clean and surprisingly spacious. The food selection was really good and plentiful.
The entertainment was also very good ...
This cruise started well after bidding on an upgrade from outside cabin to mini suite was successful. Embarkation was easy. took 5 minutes maximum.
We loved the ship and felt that the only thing that let it down was the MDR breakfasts which offered little more than the buffet; the unfunny comedian performing on the main stage rather than in a more atmospheric lounge and the cruise director ...
2nd cruise with NCL. Platinum on Disney, nearly same on RCCL and Carnival. I would rate my experience level as similar to RCCL and Carnival. My first NCL cruise was in The Haven on the Epic.
For this cruise, my room had a fair amount of broken/damaged furniture and worn carpeting in front of the balcony door. The dryer hose in the bathroom kept disconnecting from the wall unit. The toilet ...
