Review summary

We had a good time and enjoyed the cruise. You do get more for similar pricing when we had a suite on Royal Caribbean. With a younger child, would have preferred kids' program with more activities and better time availability. Would consider Norwegian again if received a great deal on pricing, otherwise, feel that Royal Caribbean has them beat on food, entertainment and kids' activities.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy to the loungs, then onto ship when boarding began

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Le Bistro was excellent. Several great meals in Haven dining room as well. Overall had better food experience on Royal Caribbean Allure of the Seas, but we did enjoy the food.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Ropes course was a lot of fun and slides were enjoyable. Free fall slide was down for at least 2 of the days of our cruise. Great experience at the spa and good equipment at fitness center.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The shows were fun, but they were only 1 hour in length, rather than usual full length shows see on other cruises we've been on.

Children's Programs

4 out of 5
Daughter enjoyed the kids club. However, only available for 2 hours a few times a day. Better timing and programming on Royal Caribbean and Disney

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All the personnel were super friendly and staff in the Haven was very accommodating and went the extra mile.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Location and set up of casino allowed cigarette smoke into middle atrium, so you smelled it often coming out of the elevators onto 7th and 8th floors. Otherwise, layout was intuitive and easy to navigate.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Great room and balcony. Felt new with comfortable bed and wonderful amenities.

When did you take your RC cruise? Not fair to compare to a pre-Covid cruise. Things are different for everyone.
