Review summary

The Haven was the best thing I have ever stayed in. It was almost not real.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
The Haven embarkation is great. The ship was cleared at 10:50, and my family and I were onboard at 11:02. It was so easy.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Always love the food on Norwegian. The haven restaurant is spectacular!! The menu itself was quite intriguing.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Pool deck is a little less cramped than the Breakaway, but still crowded as there are more people on board. I really liked the three story ropes course, and the water slides are great as well.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Both of the shows were absolutely spectacular, I have no complaints there!

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
Kids loved it. Didnโ€™t want to leave the clubs at all.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The Haven staff were the absolute best!! So kind and friendly, and they did anything for you!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Ship was very, very clean, but the only complaint again was the pool deck being so small. The Haven area was gorgeous, and my family barely left the area at all.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The room was beautiful. The balcony was huge and loved the aft view. Would definitely stay in the Haven again.

Ship tip

Book dining and show options as early in advance as you can.

Ports of call

Royal Naval Dockyard, West End, Bermuda

5 out of 5
Bermuda is my favorite port to visit. Such a great island with friendly residents, and always have a great time.

New York, New York

5 out of 5
Love New York, we live here so you canโ€™t beat the 30 minute drive to the port!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
This basically made the extra money for the Haven worth it in one shot. We were off the ship with our luggage and in our car in 15 minutes. And for disembarking one New York, thatโ€™s impressive!
