Review summary

From start to finish very consistent and very spoiled booked in Haven with a Butler.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
NCL managed the check-in process that included a instant COVID test without any issues. The results were completed within 30-min.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We were fortunate to be upgraded to Haven and felt like we were on a private cruise.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Much more than we could do. I am a lay around the pool all day type person,

Entertainment

4 out of 5
I know the pandemic effected the entertainment and the stage shows only get a 4. The other performers especially the comics were a 5

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All staff were a 5, very consistent.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The design and layout very easy to follow. The cleanliness was out standing and went the extra mile to make sure all were safe from infection. My wife is a nurse and she inspects hospitals to make sure they meet requirements The Joy surpassed all of the standards for a hospital.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Were won our bid for Haven and was upgraded to a forward penthouse (one-bedroom) cabin. The cabin and bathroom gets our 5-star rating very spacious. The only down-side was the balcony was small.

Ship tip

Enjoy and make sure you attend all of the comedy shows.

Ports of call

Harvest Caye, Belize

5 out of 5
Belize; The Monkey River tour was fantastic,

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Very easy and quick, although we were in The Haven and boat was only 35% capacity.

How do you know if you should bid higher for an upgrade? Is there a way to know if you are the highest bid?

How early before your trip did you receive your upgrade email?

We are on the Joy in two weeks. Hoping to get the Haven upgrade. Glad to hear it's hospital quality. Thank your wife for the work she does. Your state health department sure appreciates it as well as I. Nice review.
