If your a chain smoker, you can leave your package at home. The ship supplies more smoke than you will require all through the midship! by mezz1

Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Western

Look a little further and find a different cruise, There are plenty of wonderful cruise lines/ships out there. I will avoid "Costa line" and "Norwegian line" in the future. based on my many cruise experiences.

Great vacation by Slappa1969

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Eastern

Very enjoyable but as a couple without kids with us there are better options. We knew this when we booked and chose because it was going to areas we wanted to visit. The specialty restraints are wonderful but be careful with your beverage packages as despite saying all inclusive/premium they don’t include basis coffee even in main dining rooms and at $5 for a pathetic cappuccino that is very disappointing.

AAAAAMAAAAAAZIIING FIRST EXPERIENCE by prisdacosta92

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Western

Definitely doing again. Norwegian definitely set the pedestal pretty high for other cruise lines. Will definitely plan a family vacation with them, and another anniversary with my baby. The BEST couple vacation we could ever ask for, we both felt rested and renewed coming back to work.

Caribbean Cruise by GettingNauti

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Western

The cruise was fun but we felt nickeled and dimed at times. The drink package we had did not cover all types of drinks so we found ourselves paying more or settling for something different. The Cruise Director Staff was INCREDIBLE!!!! They were so much fun and very entertaining. We did not get involved in the crazy pool stuff but the games and skits etc. were very funny and well done. They made the cruise what it was for us. They were GREAT.

Better then most out there! by jt1320

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Western

If you seen the movies Titanic you will understand! A 25% of the ship is set a side for the rich only! Including the largest pool on the ship! Back to the early 1900'S!

First NCL Cruise by CKD95

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Western

It was a nice experience but I think we overpaid for what we got in return. I have cuised with another cruiseline for the same length of time and paid half the price and had a comparable/ better experience.

Customer Service Needs Serious Improvement! by srenae43

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Eastern

My adult daughter and I are experienced cruisers--over 30 cruises. Consequently, we were extremely disappointed in the Breakaway-especially because the Getaway was so fabulous. We did read the reviews before we selected our ship but could not believe that things could be that bad. It was worse. Customer service was so lacking on this ship that everyone (not an overstatement!) complained about it. It was pretty obvious that no one was watching the store nor gave a damn about the issues. Some first-time cruisers we met said they would never cruise again. The ship wasn't dirty, except for the public bathrooms which were always filthy, but it wasn't immaculate either. The issues we, and our fellow passengers, experienced could be easily fixed IF attention was paid to them. Clearly, this was not a priority on the Breakaway and it was obvious. Most obvious, there was not enough help anywhere on the ship. Every area appeared to be short staffed. That's probably why everyone was so grumpy. We will not sale on NCL again.

Missed the mark by jeremygagen

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Eastern

Not impressed with this cruise compared to other NCL cruises I have taken. Specialty restaurants sold out when we boarded ship causing us to miss 1 per paid meal. Entertainment was rescheduled after being pre booked. Poorly done.

Disappointed by rawman512002

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Eastern

Will think hard about going on another cruise. With the expense cost in mind I could come up with a much better land excursion package for the high cost of the Haven!

No more NCL by mrjc96

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Eastern

This was our 25th cruise and this is the first time I have ever written a review. I am a gold latitudes member with NCL but after this cruise I think that I will go back to either RCCL or Princess. We didn't have an overall bad cruise but I have never experienced a cruise where the staff just seemed to be going through the motions, mainly because they were under staffed and overworked. We also encountered staff members who were rude and seemed aggravated when they had to deal with customers. Last October we cruised to Cuba with RCCL and had a wonderful experience, so when we compare the two cruise lines and the service we received it's not hard to say goodbye to NCL.

Second cruise on the Breakaway by karsieok

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Eastern

I think if there were more staff on board it would of cut down on a lot of waiting, the biggest disappointment was the venue of entertainment, the main shows were of mediocre at best, NCL really needs o bring in dynamite entertainment

Nice Ship/ Good Cruise by rcrici

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Eastern

Nice cruise. Nice ship. Good port of call. Should not have to pay $200 + to use steam room, sauna and lounge chairs. I did pay it, but this stuff should be part of the fitness center.

Fantastic cruise! Everything went very smooth with no issues at all. Everything was as promised or better. The entire crew was alsways very polite and helpful. I would do this cruise again in a heartbeat! by dbenik

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway / Destination: Caribbean - Western

A great cruise with Norwegian. I was very happy and will cruise with Norwegian again, however not on "Breakaway" due to the design of the awning over the life boats running the entire length of deck 8. This prevents most of the balconies on this boat from looking down at the water.
