Norwegian Sky Cruise Reviews - Reviews

HAD A GREAT TIME, THE STAFF WAS GREAT, FOOD AND DRINKS WERE GREAT . IT WAS A GREAT WEEKEND TRIP AWAY. THE PRIVATE ISLAND WAS BEAUTIFUL. I WOULD DO IT AGAIN

This was the worst cruise ship I have ever been on! Terrible food, rude employees, 1 small swimming pool and at the time of my cruise all I had to listen to was the loud noise of construction work being being done right above the swimming pool. Why in the world would you even think that would be relaxing to lay around a small pool listening to the loud sounds of drilling and hammering? I purchased the all inclusive package and I could only eat at 2 of the cafeteria style restaurants. I actually had to pay separately out of pocket to eat some decent food! Then at the end of the cruise I was hit with a 300 bill with extra added charges, cleaning fees, and gratuities which were never mentioned to me when I purchased this trip!!!! My TV did not start working until the very last night of my vacation. So for 3 nights we only had 2 channels we could watch during the duration of the trip! Absolute terrible experience and waste of time I will never recommend this cruise to anyone that I know! 

 My first experience with Norwegian was much better then I was told it was going to be. The best part was the unlimited drinks. The music on board in every area was great. This ship overall was beautiful. The cons consist of poor variety of amenities. For example: there are no slides, rock climbing, etc.

For those with children, the camp charges extra if you leave your children for breakfast and/or lunch. The disembarkation to the private island was long; but overall we had a great time and I would return and recommend it!!

I had being looking to go cruising for a long time now and landed on norwegian sky, boy was that the best descision i ever made. I brought my mom with me last minute and it worked out perfectly for the both of us as it was her first cruise as well. Everything from food to activities was world class. All the staff were very kind and greatfull! You will never be bored, because there is always some thing to do! And if you pock sky, you will have the all inclusive free liquor package which was the best part of the cruise. All you can eat breakfast, bbq in the afternoon or the fancy dinner at night it doesnt get any better than that. The shore excersions were a blast as we want to several during our four night trip to beautiful bahamas, my favorite was the waverunner, the last day of the trip on stirrup cay island. Thank you Norwegian sky as you have changed our lives. We will be cruising every year now with norwegian sky, counting done to 2017...

It's all-inclusive but we surprisingly drank less than we normally do! Didn't have the non-alcoholic beer available and I was denied Pernod for some reason before dinner time. Otherwise Very friendly staff!! Had great times on the excursions! Room was the smallest I've been in on a cruise but it still functioned fine. Great ship for being an older refurbishment! Would definitely go again!

We have been on three cruises on three different cruise lines.  This cruise line is out favorite.  The small attention to detail was perfect from free drinks to a cold drink and towel when you return from am island.  Loved the entertainment and the friendly and attentive staff.  Thanks for a wonderful vacation.

My favorite part of the cruise was the casual environment.

We booked a balcony suite. The room could use some minor repairs and some fresh paint. Overall we were satisfied with our cruise and would recommend it to our friends.  

This cruise exceeded our expectations for the price we paid.  We thought the food would be ok, and our sit down dinners and breakfasts were great.  We thought since the drinks were included they would be watered down or bottom shelf, yet the bartenders did a great job with all types of mixed drinks with many of my favorite brands like Tito's.  Nightly entertainment like shows, games, and dancing kept us partying each night.  Their private island was the best day...it's beautiful and relaxing.  Nassau was cool, but everyone's trying to scam you...don't buy anything!  Freeport was nothing, so we spent that day on the boat by the pool, which was a great move, since it was less crowded.  Don't miss the white party, the piano guy or the guitar guy.  I guess the only complaint would be that the games like Bingo and Deal or No Deal seem rigged, it's all computerized and you need to spend a lot to play and they payouts are very small.

The stop in Great Stirrup Cay is by far the best part of the cruise. The beach is awesome with white sand, clear water and the chairs were included. The cruise atmosphere continued on the island with free refreshing and/or alcoholic drinks and barbecue lunch. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

What could be better is the menu options for dinner in the main dinning rooms. We went the first two nights and because the main courses were not great we skipped the last two nights. The buffet offered at the Garden Cafe was better than in the main dinning halls. 

Pretty good entertainment and service, food  needs improvement, love private island ,ship old but in good condition and clean, beverages include but limited doesn't include premium drinks

The activities on the boat were the best.... But my cabin bathroom smelled Terrible (8209). Other then never wanting to be in my cabin due to the bad smelling bathroom the ship was worth the trip

Best all around value for a fantastic weekend - food, service, accomodations. friendly faces, activities made for a wonderful time.  The all inclusive drink package provides top notch choices and bartenders.   So pleased we did the cruise in April, in May I took my three twenty-something granddaughters, and my husband and I sailed again in July.

From the moment we checked in at the port to the time we left the ship to come home we had a great experience. I would have given it 5 stars, but the smoking in the common areas was a little disturbing. I can't believe that people still smoke indoors anymore. Besides that the rest of the trip was awesome. The boat was immaculate, the staff were incredibly friendly. Because we had a suite, the amenities were extremely appreciared. The butler and private concierge were very helpful. The daily breakfast in Cagney's Steakhouse was delicious. I highly reccomend splurging for the upcharge dining venues. I had the best Chillean sea bass ever while on this cruise. The all inclusive liquor with call brands really made it enjoyable. And surprisingly there was always bartenders and hosts waiting to take drink orders. Finally, the entertainment was also very good, especially the comedian. The cruise director did a great job of getting the guests involved. Highly reccomend this trip for anyone looking for a relaxing long weekend. 

WE HAD A NICE TIME AT THE SKY, I WILL COME BACK, THE SERVICES WAS PERFECT AND THE STAF WAS SUPER NICE, THE CABIT WAS CLEAN

THE FOOD WAS GOOD, IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY ON SATURDAY AND WE HAD A SUPER NICE TIME

The friendliness and helpfulness of the staff is what we love about Norwegian. Alcohol inclusive is a plus too. Ship was immaculate. Shows (especially Paul/piano player) and comedian . Activities plentiful for both adults and families. Food in abundance and always replenished where needed and seconds given with a smile. Also loved the private island day. Barbecues/food had many choices.

Two of the bar servers need to be recognized for efficiency and excellence ... Longboard Bar....Tim Chavez (Phillipines) and Captain Cook's....Sladana Bjelogrlic(Serbia).

The food was good, the full service system really worked, the service also very good especially the waitress Michelle from Philippines that served in the bar area in the 7th floor (cordial, great enthusiasm, always happy and very smart) and we found everything clean and in order. Some of the attractions were outstanding such as Paul (piano player) and the music bands that played in the 7th floor (by the bar). The timing of the ship worked very well. However, there is room for improvement: We were in room 266 (below the food deck) and it was very noisy beginning 3 am when they began to prepare the space for the breakfast (movement of chairs, tables, etc). The disembark did not work well since there was a lot of confusion from everybody, slow and long cues. Besides that, thumbs up! 

I would recommend the cruise to others. Everything on the ship was good, no complaints at all. It was a pity because we couldn't get a ticket for the aquarium at the Atlantis. The tour at Great Bahamas was hard because it was so hot.

I had a great time. I thought the excursions were costly but other than that the DJ VIPER was the best DJ on land or sea!!! The food was great. The atmosphere was great.

I would recommend cruising with Norwegian lines to anyone.  The staff was very friendly, courteous and informative.  It was our first trip on a cruise, where I took my daughter and sister.   We absolutely loved it!  Food was great and the complimentary restaurants was amazing with the attentive staff.  I would definitely cruise again with Norwegian Sky.

My favorite part of this trip was to Stirrup Cay. Norwegian has the best island more than any other cruise line. The activities, staff, amenities and safety awareness are the best.
