NCL fell short and doesn't care

We were excited to take a cruise that left from PR and ended in NYC. YES NCL cut their staff so you waited 30 minutes for a drink at the pool bar. YES the rooms are only cleaned once a day now. We tried to be understanding b/c everyone including the cruise industry lost money during Covid and had to try and make up money by making cuts. So we just went with the flow. Where we had a hard time ...

After doing two cruises pre-Covid we thought we’d try NCL for the first time. I probably won’t go back. Pros: Food was very good, liked how it sailed out of Puerto Rico (so got to spend a day/night prior to sailing), with the exception of the DR, all ports were great, and felt the ship was generally very clean. Also liked how it disembarked in NYC as the final port, although please read about ...

I love the crowd and vibe!!!! The entertainment was lacking, except for the Latin band they were good!!! Food horrible in the main, premium was just ok except for Le Bistro it was great. The ship is showing its age(sad to see) , my cabin was falling apart and I was sailing above the theater heard everything til 2am. Drinks were rushed and not good. Staff looked flustered. At 3pm housekeeping carts ...

Review of the Epic - San Juan to NYC (Apr 14-22)

I took the cruise from San Juan to NYC that was from Apr 14-22. Observations about the Epic: Despite having about 4000 people on it, the ship never seemed crowded. Majority of the times, when I was walking up/down the stairs they were empty. The only issue I noticed, was walking from one end of the ship to the other on the main decks 5,6, and 7 that had most of the public spaces - ...

We just returned from a repositional cruise on the NCL Epic, which departed from San Juan, PR on 4/14/23 and arrived in NYC on 4/22/23 after stopping at St. Kitts, Antigua, St. Marteen, St. Thomas and Amber Cover (DR). This was our 14th NCL cruise and 3rd since the restart. I traveled with my wife and we stayed in an inside room. Also, we cruised on the NCL Epic in 2014. Our cruise on the ...

This was our fourth cruise. Cruised on the Epic from Puerto Rico to ST. Kitts, Antigua, St. Maarten, St. Thomas and back to New York. Sold out voyage with 4500 passengers. If you like crowds, lots of noise and lineups to get in to the restaurants then this is the cruise for you. Not enough elevators for that crowd and disembarking from the ship was a whole story of its own. Pilar in ...

Sitting in the SJU Airport and wanted to leave some parting words - We had a wonderful week onboard Epic and I would highly consider voyaging with Her again in the Mediterranean. Food: Overall, we were very pleased. Dining rooms were excellent with a few hit or miss items. We did breakfast in Taste and was also good. We had reservations each night and was quickly seated, staff was great, ...

Not an Epic Experience

We chose this cruise because it was going to the ABC islands, which we had never visited. In past years NCL, has been a great cruise line. Fast forward to the Epic 2023. This was an older ship that was definitely full to the gills, because of spring break. We arrived in our balcony stateroom and were immediately not impressed. The room was smaller than normal and had a weird bathroom on one side, ...

I just got back from a cruise on this ship and the layout is terrible. There is no atrium, no floor where you can walk around the entire ship and see the beautiful ocean views. They had a jogging track that went up and down the length of one side of the ship but the lifeboats blocked the entire view. One of the main attractions of a cruise ship is to see the beautiful views. The pools were very ...

Southern Caribbean we had never done. Fantastic itenerary, Aruba, curaçao, bonaire, st Kitts started in Puerto Rico. The weather was fabulous, our excursions were a lot of fun. Something different ever port we stopped at. I’m not sure why the negative vibe about Epic, the staff were friendly especially when you took the time to chat with them, very cordial. The ladies at the buffet Happy happy ...
