We chose Norwegian Encore for our honeymooon and had the best week of our lives. The staff, the food and drink, and entertainment were second to none. I would recommend this ship to anyone looking to be spoiled for a week!
Embarkation
4 out of 5
The embarkation process was quick and easy until a long delay for boarding. The only thing provided was water and the cooler was empty early. Would have been great to have light snacks and coffee.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We ate at almost every restaurant (complimentary and specialty) and have zero complaints about the food and beverage. We tried a little of everything and it was all incredible.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
The fitness center was very clean. The pool was freezing, but we still ventured in once or twice. Luckily we could almost always get a spot in the hot tub. We tried the water slides, participated in pool deck games, played around in the arcade at Local - which were all really fun. The shop didn't have sun screen on day three, which was scary!!
Entertainment
5 out of 5
A number of the shows were cancelled (due to covid, I assume) but the ship was super quick to replace them with amazing options. We loved DJ Fly by the pool and couldn't get enough of The Temperature band. Really awesome talent on the ship and never a dull moment!
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
I wish I could put every crew member by name, but in the end, we never experienced anything other than outstanding service. Every single member was incredible, precise and speedy. We felt unbelievably spoiled each and every day.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Unparalleled. There was always a crew member wiping down railings, tables, even stairs. We were required to wash our hands before entering the buffet, which was a nice touch! The ship is designed perfectly.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Very comfortable bed and room! Plenty of space for two people. I couldn't believe the size of the bathroom compared to cruises I went on 20 years ago. Our room steward, Edward, was wonderful!
