Review summary

It wouldn't have been the same kind of cruise without splurging for the Haven. That just added another layer of comfort and stress free vacationing. We enjoyed the food, the ambiance, and amenities. It was great just to enjoy being on the ship without worrying about anything.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
It was easy and fast as a Haven guest.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The Haven Restaurant was excellent every time. The service, the quality of food, and everything was cooked perfectly.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
All pool area, mini golf, obstacle courses were always crowded with long lines and very noisy.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Best show EVER... Million Dollar Quartet... the actors were on point to the person they were portraying, stage design was very good, and there was a lot of energy emitting from the stage. We had to see it TWICE it was that good!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All staff was very friendly and willing to satisfy our needs.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
It was BIG as big ships go... maybe a little too big as one of the issues were that the entertainment areas did not grow with the added capacity of such a bigger ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The room felt like a hotel room. It was clean, plenty of room to move, and it was quiet as well.

Ship tip

Book everything early! Shows, specialty restaurants, anything you can so it's a lot less running around once on board.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
It was nice to have a taste of Disney on my vacation. The Disney Springs Transfer was very convenient, the only thing was we only had 3 hours at the destination (excludes travel time) and would've liked 1 more hour.

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas Did not visit port

Tendering off the boat is not optimal, and it was crowded as we were on a bigger ship.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
It was beautiful! We did the Blue Lagoon Beach Day... lunch was surprisingly very good. There were plenty of beach chairs, tons of activities, and you could view dolphins/stingrays/seals as well.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Easy off

How much more does Haven cost? NCL and guests talk about it but give you no idea how much extra it is. I’m interested.
