Norwegian Jade Cruise Reviews - Reviews

we have done more than 100 cruises so far and had many with NCL While the  overall cruise was OK,food in choice and quality has been lowered again.Almost every day the same food gets a bit boring after a few days.Pay restaurants are excellent in quality and service.

The rest is as everywhere,nice cabin,friendly personell,good shows,some of the ports were just boring,like Mallorca,Olympia,Toulon

Yes we will cruise again but,very selectiv.

Looked liked it should be in Hawaii. Could use some updating.

See above.

This is my second cruise with NCL and will not be my last. They are pros at this and none do it better

The ship itself was comfortable and contained a great variety of places to spend your time.

This was the most amazing vacation. I would recommend this itinerary to any of my friends and you cannot get a better deal than to cruise to these places. My number one recommendation is to get involved with the cruise activities, that is what made this trip so memorable for us. Also, I liked the flexibility of freestyle dining, but since there was only the 2 of us, it would have been nice to have the option of sitting with some new friends.

Nice ship with good rooms. Needs a makeover though since it still has the Hawaiin theme.

Very good selections and excellent service in main dining room. Attractive ship decor

The Staff were impressive/nice. The itinerary to the 4 Greek islands were wonderful. The Food was substandard. We started with the Italian speciality restaurant which was our ONLY good meal. Although I had a filet that was less than \"Choice Grade\", the wife and farther in-law enjoyed their selection. The buffet food was sometimes cold and tasteless but not sure if that is acceptable on Norwegian, I have been on other cruises (i.e. Celebrity, etc.) and the overall food experience was good compared to the Norwegian-Jade. We also tried the French Restaurant, \"Le Bistro\" and again the food was substandard with spotty good selections (i.e. Salads). We ended our trip by selecting the Steak House Specialty Restaurant and we were very disappointed by the entire meal. Again, the service was excellent but the food was sub-standard. The Shrimp cocktail was undercooked, the Steak was not Prime as indicated and did not taste like a 28 day aged steak, and the lobster I had was undercooked. The dessert we had was very good. Overall, taking out the food portion of the trip, we had a great experience but would not recommend the Norwegian-Jade.

Had a great time on the Norwegian Jade with my sister. We especially enjoyed the dinner in the Tappenyaki restaurant. The crew members were a lot of fun and we really enjoyed the trivia contests. Made some friends with other guests. It was easy getting off and on the ship.

The overall crew was wonderful by the 3rd day they remembered our daughters name and where so helpful. The cabin was inside with a window and was a good size the room was kept up multiple times every day although we didn't request it to be. I recommend looking into sure excursions on your own or once you get to the location the ones provided by the actual cruise line are over expensive and in some cases we found the local transportation cheaper. other than those minor things it was a good experience.

I haven't cruised in 20 years and was very pleasantly surprised. The ship was clean, the mini-suites were very large with great balconies and the food was very good. The kids club and pools were very crowded but everything else was wonderful. We didn't want to leave.

I thought the ship was great. I loved the aerialists that performed. They were amazing. My biggest complaint was the yoga teacher. Carlo was horrible. Daniel was better but you should have a real yoga teacher onboard especially if you're charging people to take the class. If you're not paying, it's one thing to have someone that's not great but if you're paying, you should have a professional yoga teacher.

It was a great cruise experience, with excellent ports of call, entertainment, food, service, and accommodations. We were new to the Freestyle cruising, so didn't quite bring dressy enough clothes, but still had a blast. Service was great. I do wish we would have had more time at many of the ports, and we were disappointed with the extremely slow disembarkation process (which was communicated too quietly) the morning we left. We picked up luggage tags to disembark at 8:15AM and didn't get off the ship til at least an hour later.

We had a wonderful time with my wife and other family member. The Norwegian Jade was excellent. Superb service. Freestyle, eat wherever, whenever. Could the formal restaurant, informal by the swiming pool, buffet. It is difficult to be hungry at 6 pm or 9 pm during the all cruise. It is very nice to wake up in a different country every day and go out to explore different cultures and places that we always want to visit. Take a good breakfast buffet and go out fresh, without packing every day and taking taxis, go to the airport, etc. Then in the evening come back to the ship eat well at the formal restaurant and see a wonderful show.

I cruised on the Jade in March 2013, embarking from Rome. Loved the ship, food and its shows. I have been on NCL Spirit, MSC Splendid and will be going on NCL Epic in July 2018. The NCL Jade, although medium in size, I enjoyed the most especially eating lunch/ breakfast at the great outdoors. In 2019, I will be taking my in laws on the Jade in the summer.

It was a delightful cruise overall. Just wished there were more activities on the 3 days at sea! Dance classes should be offered in the afternoon, not at 7 pm every time.

We took the east Mediterranean 10 day cruise during early March of 2013. We had great experience. The itinerary is just about right. In 10 days we visited 6 different cities across three different countries. The docking time and required return time enable us to have enough time to see what we wanted to see during excursion. Overall, had great time and will do it again, but we probably going to take west Mediterranean cruise next time to see different cities.

The cruise exceeded expectations on all levels. The excursions were well planned and an excellent experience with the farm visits memorable. Food experiences on ship and ports of call were outstanding. The staff was very friendly with a special shout out to the Cruise Director and purser.

I liked everything about the ship. The ship and crew were first class.
