Review summary

The ship was the best I've ever been on. The overall service was terrible. The 1st night we ate in Savor and ended up leaving before we ate. The server was rude and acted like we were bothering her. Someone from Taste apologized and seated us in there. Jay, our server at Taste was exceptional and so was I Gede Wirawan, our server in La Cucina, the Italian restaurant. This meal was by far the best we had. The food in the Irish pub was sub par, for the most part. We were excited because this stayed open 24 hours. The chicken wings were cold most of the time. The service on Carnival far outweighs the service on Norwegian and Royal Caribbean and is the most affordable. I didn't like the fact that a reservation was needed for a lot of the entertainment. You also had to pay a fee for some of it! For the amount of money I paid, all of it should have been included and fully accessible to everyone. The housekeeping staff in our room was great. He knew our names and stayed out of your way. Finally, there were no programs or babysitting for my 2 year old granddaughter anywhere on the ship. So if you have any children under the age of 3 and are hoping for a little break from them, you won't find it on the Norwegian Getaway.

The only entertainment we paid for was one that came with dinner, so worth it! Does the splash academy take kids under 3? Sailed NCL 23 times and love it!
