Norwegian Tampa Cruise Reviews

Norwegian closed off the pool deck to renovate it during our vacation. According the captain, this was planned well before the holidays, but as travel customers we were never made aware (we would have postponed our trip to have a functioning ship) until we went to relax by the pool on the second day of the trip and found it totally under construction, filled with loud noises and caution tape ...

Choose the Norwegian Jade for a twentieth anniversary cruise. Have cruised numerous times in the past but never with Norwegian and thought we would give it a try, seemed like a fair price. Ship was nice enough and stateroom was what we expected. Then it begins... upon touring the ship we noticed a large green waste management shipping container on the upper pool deck. We assumed this was to ...

Gosh, where do we begin? This cruise was selected for friends and family, a party of 10 (5 cabins), as a post holiday season celebration. Many of us are seasoned travelers, including cruisers, and everyone one of us was extremely disappointed with this cruise and NCL's lack of ability to satisfy our many complaints. First off, MAJOR CONSTRUCTION was being conducted on the pool deck for the ...

This boat is supposable getting renovated and it needs it. We were delayed due to fog for about 6 hours so we didn't get to go to key west. We went to Cozumel for 2 days on our 5 day cruise. They were tearing down the slide and shut down the pool. We sooo enjoyed the sound of construction equipment while laying out next to a dumpster. I also loved purchasing a beverage package and waiting 45 ...

DO NOT Cruise with Norwegian. They have bed bugs We had a group and it was the worst cruise we ever experience. 1. Embarkation was terrible has to wait nearly 2 hrs. 2. The freestyle Dining was a joke- has to wait at least 30 to 40 minutes 3. the cooks were not sanitary- the ship we were on JADE most did not wear gloves and eat from the hand that service the food 4. Not friendly ...

We booked this cruise with our friends (6 of us) because they were offering the free drink package for the first two guests in the cabin. It left out of Tampa which the town was beautiful but the cruise terminal was terrible! The check in process was very stressful and agents were screaming at you for paperwork before you even got to the front of the check in place and it smelled like a fart and ...

We booked The Jade for our 25th wedding Anniversary. It started out when we went to the dining hall the 1st night and had a cold meal. The potato looked and tasted like it was left over from the previous cruise. Our waiter never came back to the table after dropping off the dinner. We did want more drinks and desert but after waiting for 20+ minutes we got up to leave. We reached the ...

i had a credit to spend.. I did not like it.. Harvest Caye is also a don't do.. Just an NCL attempt at pocketing more money.. Thank God only there for only 4 hours... Overpriced stores and eateries, a beach and a swimming pool.. Not much to offer after 3 other ports with all kinds of activity's and unique bargain shopping.. I didn't spend a dime there... If you are ever at this port don't bother ...

Took the Norwegian Jade, first cruise out of Tampa after re-positioning. A week prior to the cruise, I called Norwegian to see if I could get an upgrade cabin. I was told there was a room left, told the location of the cabin and would be upgraded if I could hold. When the agent returned, she said that she checked with her supervisor and there were no cabins left. Either she didn't know what ...

Short and sweet----DO NOT TRAVEL ON THIS SHIP!! -horrible services through the whole ship - not enough staff - overworked and crabby staff - lines for everything - not enough pools - up charge for good meals and drinks - dinner took way to long, had horrible service, and food was boring,bland, and most of the time COLD ! - they say "free" special package but you then have ...
