Norwegian Cruise Reviews for Senior from Port Canaveral (Orlando)

This was my first cruise on Norwegian, but my 16th cruise overall. It was my favorite! The crew were ALL friendly, enthusiastic and fun. The food was good, service great, and the activities fun. Shout out to Patrick and Bruno (entertainment,) the waiters and bartenders from Topsider, Edwin and his fellow coffee singer, and Miss Washy-Washy! We bought 8 vouchers for CruiseNext and can’t wait to ...

Not sure why this ship gets so much heat on here, I regretted reading this a few days before the cruise. Yes its a quirky ship, but its really quite a fun one too. The Caribbean sailings have been full at capacity, so of course there have been some lines. Famously the upstairs wave bar, but the bartenders work very quickly and work very very hard. Serving multiple people at one time, the lines ...

We took our first transatlantic cruise and had two rooms for a family of seven. We haven’t cruised since before Covid. Based on the reviews I was quite worried. Concerns were all overstated. I am at a loss for all the negative reviews. As far as I can tell, some people just cannot create their own fun. I was worried about overcrowding. Nothing of the sort. Granted, it was a transatlantic ...

This is our fourth cruise with NCL (Majesty, Epic, Bliss, Getaway) and we have another five already booked for the future. We love NCL because of the value, the unlimited drink package, the freestyle dining, no unexpected charges, the Latitudes program and so much more. We just became Gold -- we're a little disappointed in how little the benefits increase between Silver and Gold, but we won’t be ...

For our first cruise, the Norwegian Getaway exceeded our expectations in terms of size, the many amenities and the inclusion of the Free at Sea promotion. It was so nice to not worry about extra charges for food and beverages during our time at sea. The food at the buffet and Tropicana was hot and fresh with options for everyone. We had no problem keeping busy with the activities and ...

Chose this itinerary for our first cruise because the southeastern Caribbean islands tend to be more 'tropical', so I've always wanted to go there. The weather was absolutely perfect for the entire 10 days. Not sure how Norwegian arranged that, but kudos to them. ;-) We had a Club Balcony Suite, which is not actually a suite, nor is it in any sort of club. It was bigger than a standard balcony ...

This was our first vacation without kids in a long time and my husband and I were determined to go with the flow and not let anything ruin this trip. Our room steward told us that the ship was full with around 4,100 guests on board. The Getaway was repositioned from New York in April so when it pulled into dock at Port Canaveral it had been empty for two days. That made for a smooth embarkation ...

We chose this cruise for the included airfare and other incentives being offered. We have cruised the Getaway before but only for 7 days. This time we wanted to cruise a little longer. We flew to Orlando a day early, using Goport to book a night at the Cambria and for the ride to the ship in the morning. We had a very nice room at the Cambria, and the restaurant in the lobby was very good. ...

Overall, a wonderful cruise. Biggest complaints: they hold their most popular entertainment in small venues where hundreds of people are turned away. The comedians and the rock band specifically. You need to stand in line well over an hour to have any chance of getting a seat. On the other hand, their "stage shows" held in the big Broadway Theatre were not well attended because they were 1) ...

Our trip from Illinois got off to a great start with good weather and a smooth airplane trip. I traveled with my daughter, her husband and four year old daughter. I purchased the Go Port hotel/shuttle package and everything went smooth. The hotel was the airport-area La Quinta and it was nice. Upon arrival at Port Canaveral, we found our way to check-in and I was so grateful that all the Covid ...
