Coastal - West Coast Cruise Reviews

We really enjoyed this 5-day Pacific Coastal getaway!

We were on a family cruise as a memorial for our parents / grandparents. Had a wonderful time. Disappointed in all the additional fees. Felt drinking water, Soda tea and coffee should be included. Nothing said that tap water was not drinkable. Staff was amazing.

Princess Cruises have made it impossible to beat this was by far the best cruise we have ever done everything was perfect

Very nice cruise. I spent some money at the spa. I think more days should be spent in San Francisco.

This was my first Holland America cruise. It was a very relaxing and pleasant experience.

Had a great cruise, good weather , good food , saw a few Whales. In Vancouver the Oosterdam backed into my ship the Nieuw Amsterdam some damage to both ships

It would have been much better if we hadn’t missed our flight in Calgary, flights there WERE ALL CANCELLED DUE TO BAD WEATHER, took a later morning flight to Calgary and missed embarkation in Los Angeles......got dinged $800.00 each because we did not get on in Los Angeles!!!😡

Will never sail on Bliss again. Many other better ships out there.

I had lots of fun on this cruise, all the food and drinks were great and the staff made the trip really easy to enjoy. The ship has lots of things to do to keep you occupied. I only wish it was warmer so I could of tried the pool areas and water slides next time. Other than that, I would recommend this ship to anyone.

The Norwegian Joy is full of activities and entertainment that will keep you busy your entire trip, yet rest and relaxation are not hard to find. It was a great ship and vacation all around.

I think this was a great little cruise for travel agents/media to get to know the ship! While I think there are some design decisions (in particular) that I think NCL should have made differently for this ship, the food, service, and entertainment that I was involved with was great. I don't doubt that this is a good choice for those looking to sail to Alaska.

A fun time on a lovely ship with friendly staff. There were plenty of activities to keep us busy, even without any ports of call. Food quality left something to be desired, but that was not the focus of our experience. Would have loved to have had more time on the race track, but I'm glad we got one go at it. Overall would recommend this ship for anyone whose main focus in not the dining quality.

Norwegian Joy was a fun ship and trip. Delicious food, every drink imaginable, fun activities and shows that keep your interest. I would recommend this ship to everyone from retired couples to families, there is something for everyone!

Joy is a beautiful new ship with so much to do that it is impossible to be bored. Highlights were dinner at the Q (recommend the short ribs), a decadent seafood buffet at Garden Cafe, flying around corners on the Go Carts and watching Footloose.

There's a lot offered on this ship that's sure to keep everyone in the family entertained.

A great way to disconnect and not have to worry (too much) about what to eat or what to do, a very relaxing experience. Ship has plenty of things to explore and experience. The internet connection could be better.

Overall, this was a great mini vacation to see the west coast. The ports allowed me to visited two beautiful places I’ve never never been before. There are a few things that need to be worked out on the ship to make it a little more organized but that will not stop you from having a good time. I would cruise with them again.

This is beautifully recently renovated for the US market ship with lots of things to do for all ages. The virtual reality area had lots of games and things to do as well as an F1 simulator. The food was excellent across all venues and service was warm and with a smile albeit a little slow in certain venues while they worked out the new ship kinks. The Observation Lounge is a great place in Alaska to view wildlife and scenery and lots of seating along with Starbucks and a bar. This is a large ship and while it can be a challenge to find people as there is no central area that people stroll through, each of the venues is very well done and uniquely themed. One tip if you are in a hallway of cabins, the fish in the carpeting always swim toward the front of the ship, so if you aren't sure which way you are going, just look down and see which way the fish are swimming.

very good trip,, the ship is amazing and has everything to make a great family vacation

Loved this cruise. First time cruising pacific coast. Highly recommend.
