Puzzled about Poor Reviews

Review for a Alaska Cruise on Norwegian Encore

Its true that I dont have a lot of cruise experience and what I have (except for another cruise line in 2013) is post Covid but I am very puzzled about so many poor reviews of this ship. In my opinion, it was close to perfect. Yes, there were a few aspects about it that could have been improved. I will mention them throughout the review. The hardest part of this cruise for me was trying to ...

Great Food and Service - Everything Else Mediocre at Best

First the good - food, service staff, and drink package included were all good to very good. Now the bad - WiFi was poor at best (non-existent most of the time). Tips were included and paid for as part of the package I booked (about $350 beyond the $1,800 for the cruise) but NCL now adds $20 per day per person for an additional almost $300 unexpected service charge that even my travel agent was ...

This was a bucket list cruise for me and my sister. Cruised to Alaska in late fall to hopefully see the northern lights and we did. We were told it was the best weather of the season, even though it was the last cruise of the season. We simple loved the convenience of the cruise, unpack once and enjoy everything the ship has to offer which was alot. We enjoyed some of the specialty ...

Disappointing cruise to an amazing location

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

This was our 4th cruise and third since covid. Alaska does not disappoint and we will be going back. As far as Norwegian is concerned I will need a lot of convincing to try them again. Our room was dirty when we arrived Drawers covered in dust bunnies and they were still there when we left. There were items from the previous cruisers still in the room when we got there. We didn't meet the room ...

My nephew had a break at school so my sister took the opportunity to take him on vacation so she booked NCL Bliss. I had no plans on joining them but my mother talked me into it so I can keep them company. This turned out to be the best vacation of my life. We ate, drank, play, laugh ... it was fantastic. Weather - cloudy and occasionally wet. Typical PNW weather at this time of year. ...

We are pretty loyal to HAL, but this trip was an amazing value. My knees don't work right, so I can't "do" Alaska like I could have thirty years ago. My hope was to see as much as I could see from the boat. Our goal was quiet, decent food, decent service, and to take in some of the amazing scenery that is Alaska. We got that, and more! We scored a beautiful club suite-- more room than ...

Went on an Alaskan cruise last year on Princess. A mud slide prevented us from going into Skagway. Booked this cruise to make up for it. So far I don’t have many good things to say. I have 20 cruises worth of experience on several cruise lines. Each cruise line does some thing well and could use improvement in other areas. So far the service has been terrible. I had a good experience in the ...

My second Alaska cruise

I didn't pick this cruise, my bride did. One day out of the blue, she asked me "Can we go on an Alaska cruise?" We'd already been on one in 2017, but I didn't argue with her. It's a good enough cruise to do a repeat. We flew to Seattle the day before the cruise and stayed at the Waterfront Marriott. It's pricey, but across the street from the cruise port. It's close enough that the bell ...

Let me start by saying the cruise all around was decent. We had a number of issues within the ship, and staff Day 1: Our luggage was delivered to the incorrect room. We were able to retrieve our luggage because the family that had our luggage read the luggage tag and brought it to our room. We brought this up to guest services and they looked at me as if I was stupid. Day 2 we learned that ...

The ship its self is nicely presented but the service was horrible. First of all our bags were not in our room until 9pm, our room smelled like arm pit and we were suppose to have a bottle of champagne when we got to our room & desserts for our Anniversary and nothing was there. We asked our Stuart what happened and he comes back with a bottle of champagne that was warm not chilled. We asked for ...
