Did enjoy getting away with family. The delay in getting on the ship was a hassle. The muster was really just a mess....no one was really in charge and we could not hear anything going on. The free style dining was not my style and food was not great....as I had expected. All in all...would give the cruise a C/D grade
Embarkation
1 out of 5
Embarkation was a mess....ship was delayed due to transatlantic sailing. Just not how we expected things to go.f
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
2 out of 5
Was very disappointed with the food on the Getaway. First time on Norweigan and expected better. Even the “special” restaurants did not deliver. Not a fan of the free style dining.
Onboard Activities
2 out of 5
Due to scheduling restaurants missed some activities. Also finding areas of this ship very hard. Places were hidden in corners out of sight.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Really enjoyed the show “Million Dollar Quartet”. The comedians were pretty good for the most part....one was not so hot! Loved seeing the Cirque Steam show.
Service and Staff
2 out of 5
So so...not as friendly as I have found on other ships
Ship Quality
2 out of 5
Ship was clean. However did not like design...would like a “main gathering place” where one could sit and enjoy shopping, eating or people watching. I know not many ships have this, but have been on a Royal Caribbean ship that did, really enjoyed it. Never did find a bakery on the Getaway...was hidden in some corner, I was told by a staff member.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Cabin was great. Loved the size of the bathroom. Much nicer than I have had on other cruise lines.
Was beautiful....rented a private cabana. The lagoon we kayaked in was a bit disappointing. Thought we would see wildlife and be out further. However we just had a circle to go around in. The wildlife encounter was a bit disappointing also. Could do with less shopping.
