Norwegian Escape Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Great cruise to see Bermuda. Ship has a lot to offer.

Our whole group got sick the day before we were suppose to disembark. Came home and went to urgent care and everyone either has strep infection or flu. Never have we ever had that after a vacation. The ship was def contaminated. I would stay away from this ship. The rooms was very dusty and the staff was super rude!

Buffet was not very good. Staff was not overly friendly. Specialty resteraunts and Dining room staff were exceptional.

okay, here are our comments....... to preface everything we did, our last 5-7 cruises were on the Gem so I'm using that as the baseline to compare .....the GEM was so enjoyable and so pleasant........the ESCAPE was way too big....whoever made the decision that there should be only TWO elevator banks for 4,200 people should be demoted to swabbing the poop deck....horrible decision......unfortunately our cabin was located middeck....about 1/8 mile from the nearest elevator bank...seemed like a 1/4 of a mile after awhile.....that trek grew tiresome... the disembarkation methodology was great...one of the fastest ever and most comfortable (available arrangements were made where we could sit down while waiting to leave)....the embarkation was more than adequate provided you got there by 9:30..... the most unfair, unjust thing was the passage fee we were charged....what I object to the most is that we didn't have the option to reject all the "free" perks and thus get a lower fare.....by not having the option to get a lower fare, I feel that we were "taken to the cleaners"......we were paying for everyone's drinks et. al. by being forced to pay the same price whether one took the drink package or, for that matter, the part of any other package........no option available to forego the "free" stuff for a lower fare....the cruise on the GEM last year cost $2,800...this year the cost was $3,600.....WOW!!!!....I only agreed to go because my wife really wanted to go....but never again!!!!!!...not at this price!!! ….the balcony on the ESCAPE was much too small...the GEM spoiled us....service was great (ESCAPE) and the staff were very friendly....didn't do any excursions…..St. George's walk-about was great....loved The White Horse Inn....If we can't go on a smaller ship, on whatever line, we've been on our last cruise.....we will never again sail on a ship with more than 2,000 people.....bring back the GEM to NYC!!!!! ...the GEM spoiled us....we'd like to say see you again next year, but not on this ship....or any one of this size like it....the food in the garden café was ok.....nothing great....however we loved the desserts there.... the dining in the specialty restaurants was above average...Le Bristo was the best....loved the freestyle dining.....

My husband and I had a great time on the ESCAPE. The ship is absolutely beautiful and the staff was amazing !

I really THINK YOU SHOULD INFORM OTHER PASSENGERS BEFORE BEFORE OR DISEMBARKING THAT THERE IS GOING TO BE A LARGE GROUP ON BOARD AND THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF PRIVATE PARTIES BOOKED SO THERE MAY BE CERTAIN RESTAURANTS/BARS THAT YOU WONT EVEN BE ABLE TO GO TO!!

we were so happy with everything and will be booking with you guys for next year!!! thankyou for an awsome trip at a great price and added perks!!

All in all, very wonderful way to celebrate our honeymoon. Staff was amazing, ship was beautiful, food was great, etc. Great experience!!

My wife and I had a great time with the only disappoitment the lack of opportunites to dance. Overall, excellent food, accomodations and entertainment. Staff was consistantly great. A wonderful value.

Good Cruise, Bermuda is a great destination. One port for 2.5 days lets you really have the chance to explore!

Id do Norwegian again. Bermuda is cool for the beaches my goodness the beaches are majestic but dint expect any nightlife off the ship which is fine cause Jack and Jake at Norwegian kept us entertained with their game shows and nightly parties.

The food in the dinning halls were not special at the start of our trip. But improved once we got to Bermuda till our return to ny.

Overall it was not bad. I will not travel on this ship again. I used to travel Norwegian before and the other ships were much more fun. I really don't know if I want to cruise again with them. Undecided.

Take advantage of the ships water slides if traveling with kids.

Ship was clean food was great and staff was amazing. We love sailing on NCL.

Overall is our only cruise travel agent choice! I am hoping can assist us with charter and specialty cruises in the future

An unmitigated disaster, ship was 60 minutes late and everyone choose to get off at the same time. Stairs, hallways, common areas were flooded with people growing increasingly frustrated (an opportunity to learn how other cultures deal with frustration). No real organization from the crew and took 2 1/2 hours to get off the ship and pass through customs. Given a choice book a late (late) flight and stay on the ship until the last possible minute to avoid the unpleasantness.

I had an awesome time, the weather could have been hotter.

An absolutely wonderful cruise. Sailing from NY is stunning and awesome.

Too much money for not enough activity. Weather prohibited alot but should have more inside activities available. Too many kids even in the adult only areas . Such as spice and the smoking bars . Made me and my husband uncomfortable.
