We really enjoyed our time on Norwegian Getaway. January was a good time to get away from Chicago and bask in mid-80's sunshine.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Pretty efficient process. Our luggage was at our room a couple hours after we boarded.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Food and restaurant service were excellent. Specialty restaurants really felt like a special occasion night out. Lots of options for breakfast and lunch buffets.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Excellent fitness center. Always able to get on a treadmill. If you prefer to run outdoors, the track is nice but must do it early morning.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
We were very impressed with Burn the Floor dancers and especially the Million Dollar Quartet musicians. Both exceeded expectations.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Five stars for restaurant waiters and room stewards. Bar service, especially at pools, was slower than expected.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Overall good layout and design. Everything was very clean. Note to management: Casino area reeked of cigarette smoke. We don't gamble so not a problem for us. Is smoking allowed there?
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Plenty of room to sleep, change clothing, shower, etc. We also enjoyed reading on our private balcony.
Ship tip
Bring or buy at embarkation area a lanyard to keep your room key/ID on your person at all times. Also, get a luggage tag for each checked bag so you can insert your print-out tag. Otherwise the paper is stapled around luggage handle and could fall off. Cheap insurance for about $4 on Amazon.
