Review summary

We just returned from an amazing holiday in the Mediterranean on the Norwegian Epic (out of Rome 23 May). Memorable, off the beaten path activities included visiting Jungle Parc and completing their Extremo high ropes course, (http://www.jungleparc.es/en ) on Palma de Mallorca, visiting Marguerite Island near Cannes, and the chair lift to Monte Solaro in Capri. We were able to splurge on the Haven for this trip - and the experience was exceptional! Our concierge team of Omar and David were amazing. They worked unceasingly to ensure guests' needs were met. Our butlers and cleaning crew (Maria, Roland, Bianca) were also wonderful. The entire staff was genuinely friendly and some much fun to speak with about sights and their home countries. Most of our onboard entertainment was to relax! My daughter had bought us spa passes which were well used! I cannot recommend enough. I even fell asleep a few times just lounging on the back deck. We did go to a few shows. Burn the Floor was perfectly executed - with a cool twist on classic dance. Priscilla had great costumes and dancing. Howl at the moon / the magician acts / the Beatles were also good. Food quality and presentation varied a bit. The Haven restaurant and Moderno were my favorites. The only service complaint might be a long wait for dinner, but we learned to plan for that as the week progressed. Overall, this was a one of our vest holidays ever. Was tough to leave and come back to reality!
