Review summary

The Norwegian Getaway has much to offer all ages. I would recommend the Haven if you want the best service you ever had on a cruise.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Because we had the Haven stateroom the embarkation was painless. We had priority boarding and waited in a room with coffee etc.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Did not use the main dining room used the Haven dining room and specialty restaurants. The Haven dining was superior to any dining we have had before on a cruise the food was cooked to you liking and always perfect. The service was the best ever. The specialty restaurants Brazilian stake house4, Italian , and Japanese were also excellent. Ate lunch one day in buffet and it was excellent also.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The Headliner Show was absolutely excellent entertainment. The Comedy club and the male comedians were excellent also

Entertainment

Did not attend any of the above.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The service in the haven restaurant was perfect. Every person on the staff did anything to assist you with any thing you wanted. The room steward keep the stateroom attended to all day long. The butler keep the snacks available in the room all the time.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was clean and easy to navigate around.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
This was a Haven Spa Suite. It had a whirlpool tub in the bedroom plus and shower. It was spacious and had more storage than we needed. The room steward keep the room perfectly see comment above.

Ship tip

I would recommend the Haven if you are going on a Norwegian ship that has that available.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

3 out of 5
The traffic pattern around the New Orleans port is a pain. Use a the Fulton Parking and stay away from the port traffic.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Took a chocolate tour which was great.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

1 out of 5
Roatan was terrible because to the tender requirement. The tender process was a goat rope. Norwegian should stop going there until there is enough space for all ships to dock.

Harvest Caye, Belize

3 out of 5

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

3 out of 5

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Had prority disembarkation due to being in the Haven.

Looking forward to sailing on the GETAWAY in January. From the reviews I've read I'm glad I booked a Haven Suite.:-)
