Not so great... by A Traveler from Anchorage, AK

Sailing date: Jan 2013

Pros:

the locations we sailed to

Cons:

the food, smoking not confined to one area of the deck, size of room

I have gone on several cruises before and my newlywed husband had been on one before. This was both of our first on a Norweigan cruise ship. I had heard many positive things about Norweigan before, which makes us both question if the negative aspects of the cruise were because it is a short cruise and so maybe Norweigan does not try to make it as high quality as the longer cruises, but having never been on any other Norweigan ones we're really not sure... The food on all of the other cruises I have been on has always been amazing and the food on this cruise was really not good; for example, one night we both got steaks and neither of us (who are both big eaters) could not finish them because they were just not appetizing. The staff on the ship were also much less friendly, we even had a staff member write a note on top of a room service pizza box saying "this is trash" rather than throwing it away (they would have had easier access to a large trash can). The room was quite a bit smaller than other ships we've been on. We also did not like that people were able to smoke wherever they wanted outside on the ship as it makes it unpleasant to walk across the deck and most cruise ships confine smoking to certain areas for this reason.

Great cruise by A Traveler from Florida

Sailing date: Dec 2012

Pros:

Food options

Cons:

stop at Freeport - waste of time

The cruise was great. The food was very good and there were alot of activities planned. I only wish the daily bulletins included more details on the activites, specific locations (deck, forward, aft) and a detailed map so you could find the locations.

A lovely and special cruise! by Kim S from Iowa

Sailing date: Sep 2012

Pros:

The freestyle cruising...doing what we wanted when we wanted.

Cons:

The cold showers. The water was always cold or lukewarm when my husband or I went to take a shower.

My husband and I traveled on the Norwegian Sky for our 25th anniversary. It was an experience of a life time. We loved nearly everything about the whole experience. We would go again in a heartbeat if it were financially feasible.

Ship Details:

Ship Quality

We thought the ship was beautiful. We saw several cruise ships out at sea and thought ours was the loveliest. It was clean, well laid out and just all around pleasant.

Dining/Food

The food was delicious. We ate in The Palace the first night and liked it so much we ate there all three evenings. We enjoyed having breakfast brought to our room. We enjoyed the Great Outdoor Cafe and had a "snack" (actually more like a forth meal...we ate like hobbits) there each afternoon. We especially enjoyed the tropical fruit served at nearly every meal. You could tell it was very fresh and right off the vine/tree.

Stateroom Quality

Our stateroom was kept very clean and our steward was very friendly and helpful. Our minor disappointment was that we only had a "towel animal" on our bed one day.

Ship Staff Quality

Very friendly. They bent over backwards to accommodate us.

Entertainment & Activities

Since we rarely have time alone (children at home) and since it was our 25th anniversary, my husband and I mostly did our own thing. However, the few activities we did participate in were very well done.

Fantastic time! by Greg p from Ortonville MI

Sailing date: Aug 2012

Pros:

The food was awesome. Did not have a sub par meal while we're were aboard. Literally..... The four of use ordered almost every dish on the menu at the Italian restaurant the last night of our cruise. We kept passing dishes around and tried everything. We were all blown away!!!

Cons:

Nothing

Food was amazing! It was like eating at a 5 star restaurant the whole cruise. Will definately cruise Norwegian again!
