Review summary

Excellent Cruise although there were 3 tropical storms in the area we had calm seas and smooth sailing. Embarkation was crowded and disorganized, they had to find 2 people on the boat from the previous cruise that did not leave. Held up thousands of us for about 1 hour.

The food was very good in all the restaurants, the thing I did not like was all the extra charge meals in the main dining rooms. We always got a table for 2 with no waiting. Service was very good.

We had a mini suite, same as a regular balcony stateroom but a large ultra modern bathroom.

Pool area was always crowded but you could always find chairs around the ship. Disembarking was pretty smooth. Overall a very good cruise. Looking forward to our next one.

I doubt that because at that price you might as well buy a 3 night SDP. But since I havent been on the ship before maybe I am overlooking something obvious.

$25.00 for a steak?!?! Basically dinner at cagneys will cost at least $80pp with appetizer, entrée, sides and dessert??

Thank you for the update. I hate to be surprised with extra fees. I don't mind paying just not surprised after I order.

http://www.beyondships2.com/norwegian-breakaway-menus.html is not a full list I believe but it gives a good idea what the extras are. We are heading out in december so hopefully the OP will comment on wether these menus looked familiar.

We are leaving Nov.27 . I never knew there were extra things to pay for in the main dinner areas. Is that a new thing. It's been two years since our last cruise.

Hey there. We were on the same trip 👍. And you are correct, it was very nice but I believe they should have another adult pool. Good thing we discovered The H2O where the water falls were Up there wasn't too crowded. And as far as Embarkation goes, we always take our luggage off ourselves. We don't wait for them to call colors to exit See ya on the next trip. ⚓️⛴😎

Thanks for the positive review, will be sailing this Sunday ! Sorry embarkation was so long due to stragglers, that stinks ! At least there is plenty to eat on the menu without having to purchase an upgraded item
