First off, the ship was way too crowded. You can't walk out of the stateroom without having to push people away. The main pool was literally more human than the actual water in the pool. The slides and ropes coarse were closed the whole time for some reason, and we were charged random daily fees that we didn't know about ($80 a day). Worst of all, we didn't even go to our last location because of ...

This was my first Norwegian cruise an I enjoyed every minute. The cruise staff was excellent and so accommodating and friendly . I’ve been on over 12 cruises and I have to say, it’s the best so far. The food was excellent with so many delicious choices. I looked forward to hopping up to the bar at Spice H20. Jerry and Vitas were the most fun and friendly bartenders I ever met. They were so ...

Flight Cancelled With No Refund from NCL

The budget cutting on NCL shows for passengers who have cruised NCL before. For example, there are no hash browns at breakfast and they are not available by request, even in the sit down restaraunts. The entertainment (Choir of Man) is fine and in line with other companies, but it is not the exceptional entertainment that NCL used to be known for. The food in the main dining rooms has been pared ...

Since I used this site to read reviews prior to our cruise I wanted to be sure to leave a review of my own. We were a group of 13. Everything went very well. There is not one thing I would complain about. Reading some of the previous reviews it seems that some people like to complain about petty things. During our cruise we witnessed some of those people. One guest returned to his table with a ...

This is our 4th Norwegian cruise and my husband and I have cruised 30+ times. We decided to take another Norwegian cruise, after the past two years of not so great of an experience on Carnival. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves and had a lovely time. *Food was delicious and expertly prepared; including on the buffet. Food on our past two cruises with Carnival was truly terrible / some inedible ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

My husband and I cruise often with NCL. This was our second time on the Escape. It was my sister and brother-in-law's first cruise on NCL. They were impressed with the ship, staff, and overall activities. My sister and I have Celiac disease and must be on a gluten-free diet. As always, I requested a gluten-free diet. I never had a problem until this cruise. At the Cruise Critic Meet and Greet, ...

Beautiful Ship but much too overcrowded

6-10 Cruises • Age 60s

After sailing on RCL Odyssey of the Seas and Wonder of the Seas we noticed a definite decline in the quality of the food, the cabin service and certain alcohol selections. While RCL has diminished it's food quality in exchange for a "Quick Meal Menu" NCL"s food selections and actual preparation with attention to taste is far superior. RCL's cabin service has been cut down from daily to once a ...

This ship surpassed all of our expectations. Ports were awesome, St. Thomas was beautiful and so was Great Stirrup Cay. DR port had a great pool and lazy river. Not too many food options that were not American faves at ports, so we just ate back on the ship! Tortola was nice for shopping, did not do excursion or beach there. Pool could be bigger. The Food and service was the best we have ...

This was cruise #9 for me, #6 with Norwegian and my first time on the Escape. This was a full-occupancy+ cruise, with ~4800 passengers and 1600 crew. The Breakaway class is really the perfect balance of everything you need in cruising and the ship’s public spaces are big enough that you never feel crowded. Check-in at the port was a breeze. I basically did not stop moving, with staff helpfully ...

Guests: Two females aged 57, 61. We chose this cruise because of the ports and to just relax in sun and read. It was our first time in an interior room. Embarkation was a breeze even tho it was raining. We had a hard time at first finding our way around but staff was very helpful. We arrived at port at 11.30, got in our room by 1.00 and had our luggage by 4.00. Note: apparently there were 3 bags ...
