Norwegian Getaway

Review summary

We booked this cruise just to try a Haven suite but learned we were on the opposite end of the ship--aft 14872. the Haven suites, private restaurant, lounge and pool are excellent but 16th deck forward. Our suite was smaller the our trip on the Star which was half the price. The casino was filthy and the drink service was almost non-existing with smokers using cups for ashtrays due to lack of them.

I wasnt a fan of the Getaway... it has pros and con, but just not a fan.

We loved our aft facing penthouse on the escape. And they are almost identical ships.

Low blow randytownsend5, but often true.

Allowing smoking in any public area on board will keep a lot of people from sailing on this (or any ship) that will allow this! I suppose they allow spitting on the floor also. Just how I feel.😝

So you’re admitting that you didn’t research your expensive cruise.
