Norwegian Escape Cruise Reviews - Reviews

I wished we did a little bit more. They need to have more shows on the ship and less comedy. And the casino needs to be smoke free.

Determined we aren’t NCL fans. Went on this cruise bc our friends were booked on it. Nice to be with friends and family but a holiday week was overwhelming for the cruise ship staff.

This was the worst cruise I've ever been on as it relates to ports of call. I've been on 10-12 cruises.

I definitely would cruise again using Norwegian. We had a great family vacation from ages. 8 to 73. Everyone had plenty to do throughout the entire trip.

Overall a super cruise with a variety of interesting things to do or see- Food and Service were excellent and our accommodations were quite nice as well. The ship is beautiful and is well maintained.

Very pleased with this experience. I do recommend this ship and this itinerary. Take advantage of the specialty restaurants and Norwegian's excursions.

If you can not handle smoking than the ncl escape, breakaway, getaway are not the ships for you. I did ask what I can cruise on to maybe not be sick afterwards. The ship put smaller cabins so more people. For me that many people on one ship is not exciting. No seats outside. Lots of other things.

Very badly needs ability to communicate with other family members onboard and on land!!! Maybe free through your app or something??

I was disappointed in that I was expecting a cocktail party for being the level Ib was which never happened. After all the money I've spent with Norwegian, Ib just didn't feel very special.

A great cruise, overall. This was actually a makeup cruise for a Covid cancellation back in April 2020. Thanks again to Doc Reynolds for making all of our booking arrangements and keeping us informed as we planned and prepared.

If you’re a family, got lots of people you want to entertain. Teenagers that can’t wait to join the adults in the “adult only” parties (which are every single night- same music) then maybe this is it. Kids running everywhere. And 12 year olds at the adult only comedy night. Made it tough for comedians as they were dealing in the jokes to rate the PG because of the kids. I was not impressed with the dining. The buffet was fine. Lots of options. Again, if you expect a “star buck type” special coffee. Make sure you buy a drink package that includes that. There are a lot of drink packages. Not all are created equal. Especially if it was offered in the cruise price. Forme. I won’t go on another. Two was enough. Maybe a smaller Norwegian. Or different cruise. Because my overall impression is it’s was too crowded. Oh! And the fancy spa, with the “limited” number of entries. Don’t buy it. It was packed!!!! And I’m not sure about the Haven. But we saw some at the same Resturants and shows as we were. I recalled the price was a lot more. But. Not sure. Glad I went for the standard balcony.

We loved the Escape. The Vibe beach club was amazing! We also enjoyed the Spa. The food wasn't as good as other ships, but still was tasty.

Get the balcony. It's worth it. We were impressed with the staff from top to bottom. Would definitely do it again.

We had a wonderful time, even though the food buffet was kind of boring and repetitious. But we still had enough to eat.

Very relaxing specialty restaurants were hard to secure reservations unhappy with internet speed

Good cruise in general. Very disappointed in photo package as advertising on the web didnt. it March what we received in person. The gift lanyards (for one) were not the same. We were told at the photo dept on the ship that were all out. Then at the photo gift shop on the private island they had a ton. Yet they would not exchange them as we were told by the crew member it was impossible and we needed to write NCL about the whole photo mess. Never had this problem before.

Norwegian shines in their restaurants and overall efficiency however they charge for everything. If you do not have the drink package be prepared to pay over 13 per mixed drink or 10 per beer. Internet is nearly 300 for the trip and it is barely adequate. Bottled water is 6 dollars so bring your on reusable bottles like we did. Kids club will cost 6 per hour per kid and the pool table will cost 5 dollars a game! The guitar player singer in the craft brew pub was excellent and the craft beers were only 11 dollars each so I guess that's ok.

Great experience. Had a few minor hiccups, but the rest outweighed everything. We stayed in the Deluxe Owner's suite, mainly due to discounts, and it's worth it if you can justify it. Otherwise, Penthouse with large balcony seems to be the best value in the Haven if you are traveling with 3 guests or less. Sadly we couldn't dock at Great Stirrup Cay due to high winds and seas, but this itinerary was great, and just the right length. Normally I'm ready to go home after 3-4 days of travel, but didn't get that sensation on this trip.

This is a very nice little cruise. We had been to all the ports before, but we really just wanted to get in the sun and to relax.

very relaxing. we were just out to kick back for a week
