The worst designed ship ever. entertainment was terrific but venues and theatre were too small...long line-ups. yoga ($12) and art classes ($35) cost extra but prices are not listed, line- up at front desk for those (called operator many times, no answer ever). Bottles of water in room are not free - $5 each. Had room attendant clear out the booze and water from the room. If not on a drinks ...
We have looked forward to a transatlantic trip and the itinerary was great. We were hesitant to book such a large ship but wanted to give it a try. Boarding was the easiest ever! But once on board, things started to grind slowly. We tired quickly of standing in lines to watch a show ( in a WAY to small theater), get dinner, or ride an elevator. Many people enjoyed the ship and really enjoyed the ...
If you can cope with the strange cabin layout, love trivia games and slots machines, don't mind lining up, even for things you reserved, and like paying for services, then this ship/hotel is for you.
Be prepared:
Your shower and seperate toilet are immediately inside the cabin door. You will be visible and struck by anyone opening the door once you step from either glass doored facility. ...
This was a repositioning cruise from Port Canaveral, Florida to Barcelona. We had never cruised on a large ship, and won’t do so again, primarily because of the noise level. Why is trivia played in the atrium, where the sound of the microphones reverberate throughout two floors?
The plus sides of this trip include:
1. Medical care (ear infection not responding to prescribed ...
First of all, starting from embarkation we came across with the same problem, again and again, we have Turkish special passport holders which do not require us to obtain a visa for certain countries. We told it each time to the embarkation personnel and passport officers but they cause us to wait sometimes 2 hours in order to get confirmation. Sometimes they do not accept official letters from ...
My wife and I took the Norwegian Epic out of Port Canaveral on April 7, 2018. I was forewarned that the rooms were poorly lighted (as they were: I did my shaving on the balcony when there was sunlight), that the beds were curved so my feet would hang off the bed (which they did: I’m only five-eleven, but it’s form before function, you know), and that the toilet and shower had opaque doors (tacky ...
This was our first trans Atlantic cruise and we were excited to choose the Norwegian shiping line following our amazing cruise on the Norwegian Spirit around the Greek Islands.
The Epic in our mind left a lot to be desired. It is advertised as a quirky boat but that does not account for deficiencies in some basic comforts for e.g. we had a balcony room on the 11 floor and our feet hung out the ...
I wish there were a 3 1/2 star option for the rating, as the cruise was good (not very good or average). NCL is our favorite cruise line and this was our 25th anniversary, so a Transatlantic cruise was a no-brainer. First off, we did enjoy many facets of the cruise, but there are some things that need improvement.
1. Food was great whether you were in the Garden Cafe, Taste, Manhattan Room or ...
Norwegian Cruise Line, Ship Epic, Category H6 / Stateroom 10326 Haven Suite
15 night transatlantic cruise, Florida to Barcelona
Seasoned cruisers with 34 cruises under our belt.
Summary: This ship offers Haven suites in the back of the ship. They were NOT worth the extra $3,000 we spent on them. I DO NOT recommend these rear facing Haven suites. This is a designer suite that probably won ...
We have taken many NCL cruises. This ship has been a real letdown. Never had to have reservations to see any shows on any other cruises. You had to have reservations. The lines to get in were extremely long, and waiting times were long.
The bathroom we had in our room was like something we never had experienced. Only a shower and toilet. When showering, the entire floor in the bathroom gets ...
