Norwegian Sky Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Just got off the Sky and had a great time! Food and drinks were wonderful, be sure to eat at La Bistro. The rooms are a little dated but we loved our balcony. The only disappointed was that great stirrup cay was cancelled due to weather but that is no ones fault. Would definitely recommend!!

Almost everything about the cruise was top notch. The embarkment and disembarkment processes, the room, the service, entertainment, activities, food, drinks. All above our expectations....BUT, we ended up sitting between two ships at the Nassau port for 33 hours, which made our balcony unusable!  They claimed that the seas were too high to go to the private island. The weather was absolutely gorgeous on our entire trip, and we know they skipped the private island a few weeks back, and at least one other time this year. How often does this happen?!  I would imagine it's a huge cost savings for them to stay in port an extra day. Extremely disappointed in this and we went from researching our next cruise on that ship, to saying we're not sure we can ever risk cruising with them again. 

This was my family's 2nd time taking this cruise - we drive all the way from NYC because we enjoy it so much. But during this past cruise - my daughter and I both woke up every day with more bites all over our legs and body. I tried calling the medical facility there on board but the phone just rang and rang. When we got home we had to stress about sterilizing everything we had so not to bring it into our home. This was very embarrassing for me because I am a very clean person and a prestigious doctor. The staff and food were fantastic as always - but now thinking about not returning next yr for our yearly cruise because of this.

Nice 4-day cruise. Rooms are small, as expected, but totally functional and had comfy beds. Our room steward was efficient and remembered us every time we saw him. Room was very clean and always had fresh towels. Food in the MDRs was hit and miss. The first night we had sad, gray steak and salty pasta. The next night was tasty lasagna and pork shank with the meat falling off the bone. We tried one specialty restaurant, Cagneys, which was excellent. Fantastic steak, tasty side dishes and great wine. Staff at all restaurants were very attentive but you definitely get a little more with your specialty dining. We didn't go to shows but did participate in the evening activities which were always entertaining. We did not get to GSC due to weather which was a bummer and my biggest regret from the trip. I understand the need to cancel based on safety but it puts us in the bind of either spending money to book a last minute excursion to re-create the beach day or stay on the ship. We stayed on the ship and needless to say, we were very excited when we finally left Nassau.

Entertainment was good. Evening dining was good. Wait staff was excellent. All the support staff was excellent. Last day beach excursion was good. I would highly recommend this nice little four day retreat.

overall a relaxing fun trip wasn't impressed with inside cabin after staying in balcony ,no hairdryer in room ,hard to move an just had 2 ppl bathroom very small ,it was quiet we slept good an too much missed alot ..lol it was clean our room guy did a great job ,was afraid it being open bar the drinks would be weak but not at all seemed pretty strong ( I had to ask for lite ) we ate buffet they had the same food pretty much everyday but a variety an was good didn't do any shows, workers was friendly an helpful ,ports was good Bahama's has pretty blue water,will go again !

I traveled with my boyfriend and another couple.  We had the best vacation we have ever had!  I have traveled with others cruises but norwegian was without a doubt the best experience!  Looking forward to our next trip!

Sky - 3 nights Mia/Bahamas Very Good: Room with a balcony Excursion: Seahorse Snorkel @ Nassau and ParaSailing at Great Stirrup Cay. Nassau was as expected, crowded and touristy but good. Next time, tour the island. Great Stirrup Cay was beautiful. The water was the perfect temperature and so clear and blue. Ship was clean and enjoyable. Room staff were polite and room was well kept. The food was mediocre, could have been much better. Very Bad: My suitcase with all my clothes other than what I had on was delivered to the wrong room. Only once the cruise was over was it found. I got it as I was getting off. In the meantime I had to buy a bathing suit in the expensive gift shop and other clothes in Nassau. Only polite "we are looking for it" from staff. Had to hand wash my underwear in the sink. Still, I was determined to have fun but always thinking about where my bag was. I can't believe that the people who had it didn't know it wasn't theirs! After filing a claim on Sunday I was given a $50 "sorry" credit on my card which paid for a dinner at IlAdagio. ALWAYS DO CARRYON LUGGAGE IF YOU CAN! IF IT WAS CARRYON AT THE AIRPORT, THEN CARRYON TO THE SHIP!!

booked as a quick last minute weekend retreat , booked a inside cabin i recommend on splitting the beds for more room , most smoking sections on a ship in a long time . decent casino for a smaller ship , great onboard staff and plenty of bars . highly recommended quick easy vacation.

Great trip. Enjoyed the ship. I enjoyed many of the onboard activities. The food left something to be desired. The all inclusive bar was great. I would recommend the cruise.

Loved every moment of our cruise! We took our two adult children with us. We all enjoyed the free drinks! This was our first cruise, it made us book a second Cruise, so the experience was awesome. Otherwise we would never have done it again! My daughter was with us, and had been on Carnival before, she said this was way better!

Great ship, we had so much fun. Great entertainment, great food and an open bar. Just a blast! Best vacation I have had. Ben to the mountains, been to the beach, tried all inclusive in Cancun. All great but now all I want to do is go on another Norwegian cruise.

My husband and I just finished a four day cruise to the Bahamas on the Norwegian Sky after recovering a "free cruise" offer from Wyndham. While we did enjoy ourselves, be advised that an independent travel agency books blocks of rooms from the second week of March through the first of April (Google "College Party Cruise") and advertises this cruise to college students as all-inclusive for a cheap, group rate. While we did expect a fair amount of college students (especially considering this is an all inclusive cruise), we weren't expecting that 85% of the passengers would be college students. Luckily, we found a majority of the college students stayed around the main pool so we had the "kiddie pool" to ourselves (there weren't many children which was a good thing, I would not want my three and five year old to be on this cruise). The CPC passengers were given blue wristbands which gave them extra "privileges", but really it allowed us non-CPC passengers (or "old people") to jump lines at the bar (huge bonus!). The staff did a great job at monitoring the front (family) deck and turned away the wristband wearing students so we were separated from the party crowd. Overall, the ship was in good shape considering its age, but the overall service was a bit lacking, though this was likely due to their frustration with the rowdy crowds. During our cruise, 24 passengers were escorted off at the ports due to unruliness just to give you an idea of what to expect during the CPC weeks! The food was mediocre compared to other cruises I have been on, but the steak was consistently the best menu selection at the the main dining rooms. The meat at the buffet was often dry and uninspiring. Also, they tended to be slow to replenish the items on the buffet when they became low. Ultimately, it would be difficult to judge our experience as a gauge for typical cruises on the Sky as we unfortunately selected the absolute wrong week to go. Morale of the story-think long and hard before you book a cruise in March!

The services. Is the best services 😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚❤️❤️❤️❤️😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚i love the service in sky cruises. They are friendly and the room service was wonderful 

The good thing about Norwegian Sky was that you can always enjoy it even when the weather is not great.

Staff were friendly.

Food variety was excellent.

The main restaurant dinner quality was superb.

Wine variety was good.

Just got off the Norwegian Sky. This was our second time on the ship (first was in August 2016). The ship has been refurbished with new furniture and carpets and things. I have NOTHING bad to say at all. Everyone on the ship was accommodating, friendly and helpful. We did the 3 specialty restaurants. Italian was ok, cagneys was awesome as always but service seemed a little unorganized. But since we were in no rush it didn't matter. Were supposed to do French the last night but unfortunately the design of the restaurant could not accommodate a table for 6 comfortably for our group. They had no problem calling Cagneys for us and getting us a table there again for a second night! Spent a lot of time at the piano bar and the club and closed them down 2 nights and had a blast. Pool was nice, cold and crowded as to be expected. First day was an issue with us not being able to have drinks anywhere near or in the pool. That was changed quickly however. Allan at the pool bar is by far the best. Didn't get off the ship in Freeport and Nassau as we have been there many times. Great stirrup cay was nice with plenty of chairs to use and the water was refreshing. If you can't have a good time on this or any cruise, then maybe you shouldn't cruise. A thank you and a smile to the people who work there such long hours goes a long way! Happy cruising!

If you wantvto have stress free fun ship to drink on this boats for you

This was the first cruise for the Hubby and me. We are both larger/plus size people. We had absolutely no problem fitting in the shower, or any place else on the cruise. Our Steward, Jeffrey, went out of his way to make us feel comfortable. We did the three meal package. All of the restaurants were awesome. Cagney's was my favorite. Every member of the staff always welcomed us with a smile. We had such a great experience that we are talking about booking again for 2018.

This was the second time on this ship for a 4 day cruise.  We loved it.  The food was good, the shows were excellent and the crew was even nicer this time than the last. A couple of minor complaints were that neither of the closet doors would close all the way due to broken hinges and the bathroom door had to be slammed to close.  Also, the hairdryer proved didn't work and there was only one outlet in the room.  The other didn't have the US adapter insert in it.  We had to use the bathroom outlet to charge one of our phones, and the outlet only works when the bathroom light is on.  Despite those annoyances, we would recommend this trip to anyone and would do it again ourselves.

Had an absolute blast on this cruise. Food was good, entertainment was good, and the two stops in the Bahamas was also good. We rented a cabana for 8 at Great Stirrup Cay which was a bargain, just make sure to bring a Bluetooth speaker for music.
