Norwegian Getaway Review

Additional details
We arrived at the Port of Miami early, around 11:00 am, and decided to park at the Port, $140 for the week, ouch, but worth it to my wife and me.
Embarkation was simple and fast, as has been our experience with NCL. We were on board the Getaway before noon and in our Mini Suite by 1:00 PM. Mini is a good name for it because it is not much bigger than a standard balcony but the extra room it does have seems to be in the right places. You get a little more room both in front of the couch and surrounding the bed, its not much but noticeable. The obvious extra space is in the bathroom which was nice with dual faucets on a single large sink and a nice sized shower with unfortunately low water pressure.
Overall, I loved the decor on the Getaway, the colors, furniture, and flow were nice. The small spaces to sit both inside and out were enjoyable. We spent a lot of our time in the Spa with the Spa Pass ($199 per person) that gives you access to the Spa Hydro Pool, Saunas, Salt Room, and Steam Room. We love this area, as relaxation is a big reason we cruise.
Cabin Review
Mini is a good name for this suite because it is not much bigger than a standard balcony but the extra room it does have seems to be in the right places. You seem to get a little more room both in front of the couch and surrounding the bed, its not much but noticeable. The obvious extra space is in the bathroom which was nice with dual faucets on a single large sink and a nice sized shower with unfortunately low water pressure. To have such a big shower and to have to stand up against the shower faucet to get water is a waste. Don't get me wrong. I like the room, its decor, but unless NCL adds some other perks to this cabin I probably won't book it again unless I get a great deal that made it basically the same price as a standard balcony. Speaking of balcony, it is definitely small, but on the bright side it seems like you are closer to the ocean when sitting outside or looking out from inside your room.
