Frequent NCL cruiser (very disappointed)

Okay, so we all understand this new Covid world we live in and make adjustments accordingly but I think NCL tried to push its luck one to many times with this cruise out of Miami on 12/27. My other Covid era reference was on the NCL Encore out of Seattle on 10/9, which was extremely well done. So what was different here? For my wife and I we noticed immediately at check in at the Port of ...

We cruise NCL regularly and chose the Eastern Cariben cruise because it was one itinerary we have not sailed and my friend wanted to see St. Thomas. This cruise almost started off with a bang when a bomb scare was called in at the Miami port. On our way to San Juan, we learned they had just had a 6.2 eaerthquake and when we arrived, everything was closed except Walgreens where we bought tee ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 30s

This whole trip felt like we were in a line. Getting on the ship took 2 hours or more. Disembarkation was super unorganized, we were late to Florida and only enjoyed 2 hours after paying for a 30$ shuttle. They failed to announce tender reservations were required to get off on the private island which was our second stop, so we waited for hours again. Third stop we were in a line as well, although ...

I have cruised with Norwegian years ago and so much has changed. We were shocked with the service. In main dining, we many of times waited more than an hour to be served dinner, with no one coming back to our table to see if we needed refills etc. In Savor we asked to switch out our appetizers because we didn't like them and they did, but when we were done, the waiter basically asked for an ...

Not worth the money - Substandard Cruise Experience

I don’t want to make this a long winded review but I’m so unhappy with this cruise that I feel I have to share my experience with everyone. I’ll try to make it short. Food: The buffet was extremely disappointing, especially breakfast. The buffet was very predictable. Every day for breakfast they would have the same basic breakfast items. No variety, no additions. Only the same basic ...

the Getaway is a beautiful ship, its big, dinner is amazing, food is better than any other cruise line. Service is good, We went to Roatan (I looove this island), Belize- Harvest Cay (Nothing to do, super boring) Cozumel (Its always nice) we took 8 days leaving fro Miami Fl. The balcony cabin was good, clean and excellent service. Entertainment and activities on the boat are HORRIBLE! only 3 Free ...

This was a 5-day Western Caribbean cruise out of Miami. We flew into Ft Lauderdale the day of and immediately took a shuttle to the port (we planned to spend a day in Miami when we returned). The experience immediately started off on the wrong foot when the man taking our bags demanded tips from us. He didn't tell us tips were welcome - he took our bags from us and said "Ok, now you have to tip ...

We traveled with our best friends to celebrate our belated honeymoon. There were no children with our party. Getting to the port and getting on the ship was very easy and fast. Great parking across from the ship. They are very organized. First, our room was ok, except the shower was clogged. Our room steward (Benji) had it fixed promptly. He was wonderful. The beds however were not ...

We just returned from a 7 day western carib cruise on the Getaway. Our poor experience started with the NCL consultant. We called the very helpful consultant we had used before but he no longer is employed at NCL. Another consultant called us back. He was a fast talker who made misleading and confusing statements. When we arrived at our room we found out it was a handicap room. Neither of ...

Our stateroom hasdBedbugs. The staff and exterminator came to our room. Our laundry and luggage was treated. I was in a handicap room. There were none available so I was put in a balcony cabin. This room was difficult for me to maneuver in. I fell and busted my lip and chin. Hit my head and began vomiting. Sprained my ankle and her my knee. I went to Medical. The Dr. was very rude and ...
