The Norwegian joy was a beautiful ship with a great destination to Bermuda enjoyed just about everything on the ship. The breakaway Class is the best and would definitely sail on her again

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
The ships slides were fun and so is the VR room .But unfortunately we had a reservation for laser tag it was canceled due to technical difficulties

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Footloose and elements were great shows excellent singers and dancers .It was open seating didn’t have to bother with reservations. The tribute to the Beatles was very good it was held in the main theater first night and then in the cavern club the other nights.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The wait staff and bartenders exceptional on the joy they’re hard working and always greet you with a smile. The guest service desk pointed me in the wrong direction a couple of times so I can’t say they were the most helpful

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The joy is a beautiful ship I love the layout observation room is nice and roomy ,plenty of seating and there is a bar ,a Starbucks and snacks in the afternoon. I think spice H2O is smaller on this ship as compared to other breakaway class ships but still very nice

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Good size room for three of us . I love the balcony enjoyed coffee out there each morning the bathroom had sufficient room

Ship tip

If you wanna sit on the pool deck you do have to put your towel down before seven in the morning the chairs were almost full by that time

Ports of call

New York, New York

5 out of 5
Didn’t do anything in New York because I live nearby and visit when possible

Royal Naval Dockyard, West End, Bermuda

5 out of 5
Love Bermuda just wish I had more time. Went to tobacco bay did some snorkeling and walked around Saint George took the free NCL ferry over. Next day went to horseshoe Bay the ocean is so clean and free of shells and seaweed
