Excellent Cruise by GailD1

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Gem / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

The ship was extremely clean. The staff was excellent. Our suite was beautiful! The one concern/observation we had was - we did not purchase a beverage plan. We had iced tea or lemonade with our meals. We noticed that only one restaurant would give us refills without asking.

Great time in the Bahamas! by LynneC

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Gem / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

This was our second cruise on the Norwegian Gem and they have improved much in the 18 month since our first trip with them. The cruise director, Sinan, was our favorite ever! He was full of energy and kept us laughing. The first time we cruised on the Gem they had issues with disembarkation and we waited in line for 2 hours. Whatever was the trouble last time they certainly fixed it and we sailed right through the process (although we really wanted to turn around and get right back on). It was a wonderful time. We would have liked a little longer in port in Florida so that we could have stayed at Disney for a little longer.

Ups and Downs by KarenP7

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Gem / Destination: Bermuda

Ship needs to be touched up as wear and tear is showing throughout. Our cabin was not clean (even after having a second cleaning done). Finding underclothing in cupboards and flip flops, dirt and other items under the bed was disapponting and unacceptable. Mirrors were dirty, bathroom had a foul smell. Surprise of an additional $12.00 per day/per person service charge may have been more acceptable if the room had been clean (at a minimum). Coupons and offers given were not honored (or at least not without a long debate).

Not What I expected by Joann4

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Gem / Destination: Bermuda

Waiters were mean didnot give you time of day. Compared to Carnival, dinners should be together..6or 8 pm serve all the same food with choices everyday not have to pay for them. Did not like the entertainment, was told we could celebrate our anniversay they would give us a cake upon giving them a card i received, never happened. Not organized at all!

A Great trip by SusanO37044153

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Gem / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

The ship was very clean!!! The set up of the ship was great. Our Children loved the teen program. There was plenty of places on the ship for the teens to go and be teenagers. Dining room service was very slow and you needed to go right at 6:00pm or there was an hour wait.

We had a bad experience by InnaG

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Gem / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

A child 13 was not allowed to join her cousins 12 in the kids club becasue of age restrictions. The kids ended up not going to kids club at all, so it's fare for all and we had 6 kids in our party. Among a total of 18 people in our party more than half got a stomach virus. We will not cruise at all after this trip.

Great trip by CaraC

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Gem / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

Ship was clean,nice friendly staff. Food was ok,had better on other shops.it was crowded as it was kid vacation week which was expected. Staff needs to reign in these parents that do not watch their kids, and allow their kids to go to everything including adults only shows. Apparently new yorkers are exempt.
