Review for a Mediterranean Cruise on Norwegian Star

We picked this cruise as it was advertised as a "Greek Island Cruise". The night before departure we received an email stating we would not be visiting Santorini or Mykonos, which to us were the highlights of the trip. The last-minute and significant itinerary changes stopped this cruise being a winter sun cruise we had hoped for and the changed itinerary would never have been one we would have ...

The ship (Norwegian Star) didn’t make it to 3 of the 6 scheduled destinations, 2 of which were the highlights of the trip, Santorini and Mykonos. They added 2 new ports but we only made it to 1. It was disappointment after disappointment. This also happened to the cruise right before us but Norwegian decided to sail with the Star again anyways, even though they knew the ship had major mechanical ...

Ship engine exploded the cruise before so our itinerary was awful.

I wanted to go to Santorini and Mykonos. The ship's engine apparently exploded the cruise prior (I know because another friend was on that cruise) to the point that people had to put on life vests and go to the deck. But they chose not to tell anyone until after we were underway that this meant we could not go to the two best ports. Instead we were on the ship for almost half of the time. And ...

Cancelled the most important port

We booked this cruise and were so excited to see Dubrovnik Croatia. The ship had engine problems causing the cancellation of Dubrovnik. We had been waiting o eat a year for this cruise and my boys first visit to Europe. A $100 credit is an insult. Our cabin was the smallest cabin I have ever had and was a large family cabin- what a joke. Our cabin steward did give us an ice bucket nor ice til ...

I would not recommend NCL. After paying $4,800 for a week that was really 5 days, 6 nights we were nickel and dimed to death. From the moment we stepped foot onboard we were being solicited to sign up for next cruise. In 5 days we received 4 phone calls to our room with recorded messages to sign up for next cruise. They cared more about making ship announcements to sign up for next cruise then ...

I would say I am an avid cruiser and this was my first cruise on NCL. However, it was the worst cruise ive taken. I took my mom on this cruise because she just beat breast cancer and it was also her retirement celebration. We saved up for a LONG time to take an unpleasant cruise. I chose NCL for a step up from other cruise lines and I thought that paying over 5k for a mini suite would be worth ...

We chose the cruise as we had cruised on the Star before in Asia, which was fab but also the destinations looked great with Greece, Croatia and Montenegro. This was our first Med cruise however we have been on several cruises before this in other parts of the world. First of all the destinations were excellent. Can't fault any location. A bit difficult with logistics in Venice getting to the ...

Small ship, terrible guest services

First Time Cruiser • Age 30s

I chose this cruise because it knocked out many places in a short amount of time. We had never been to europe and were eager to use the help of a cruise to get us to various places. However, the ship was small, overcrowded, and the guest services team was terrible. The food was decent, the pool was terrible, salt water and freezing, hot tubs were closed one of the days for unknown reasons. The ...

We are Platinum members on NCL and have cruised on many of their ships. The Star is by far the worst ship I have ever been on. We normally sail in the Haven but this ship does not have a Haven so we booked an Owners Suite. First off the room was freezing cold the entire time and we were told we could not turn off the air just turn it up. We had it turned up to the hottest it would go and it still ...
