All you can drink by Mongy

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

If you are looking for drinking cruise, this is the one. There is basically nothing else to do besides the casino. Will recommend to visit Atlantis Hotel and spend the day at the water park. Great Stirrup Cay can't compare to the other cruise lines islands and nothing is free. You pay for shade, floaters, kayak and don't forget to bring the towels from the ship.

Loved freestyle by redhatmoe

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

Enjoyed anytime dining it really worked for us. Different waiters every night but always exceptional friendly service. Open bar was a big plus we didn't have to give our sail pass at the pool or lounges to have a drink. The ship was very clean & the food very good.  We love to dance in the evening & that was the only disappointment to us. There were lovely lounges with dance floors but no music until 11:15pm & that's a little too late for us.  We choose not to leave the ship at the ports & just relaxed at the pool  !!!  We enjoyed a relaxing four days !!

First cruise by bnegutermuth

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

It was our first cruise ever and we picked the best.  The suite came with a butler, breakfast and lunch in a super restaurant, and all other food and drinks complementary.  Our favorite part was the music everywhere and the outstanding service by all employees.

Fabulous Girls' Trip by SeestersTrip

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

The Norwegian Sky has the friendliest staff! We were treated like queens each night in the Palace restaurant by Mahi, our server. We were also given extra help and attention by Fransico, port shopping specialist. We had a great time and made fun memories! We will be returning!

Nice cruise and good customer service by sinclairgray

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

Favorite part of the cruise was the views, activities and friendliness of the staff. The rooms were clean and well maintained. Improvements needed were with the live entertainment and food selections. You should not have to pay for bottled water.

Great Cruise by blanks1057

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

For a short cruise this was great!  The ship was very clean, nicely decorated and easy to get around.  The only thing we found to be on the negative side was there were just too many chairs in the showroom, making it hard to get to the center of the row.

We would highly recommend the Sky and plan to do it again.

Great way to spend a few days relaxing by quinny611

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

This was great way to have a relaxing few days in the sun. Staff was very friendly, and eager to make this an enjoyable trip. 

The ship was clean and well attended during our stay.  The public bathrooms were very clean, well taken care of.   Plenty of food at all times of days. Breakfast could be in the dining room, or at the buffet. At the buffet you could also have eggs, or omelets made to order. 

Love the all inclusive price, made things very easy. 

It would be nice to have another day at the "private island"

Much more than I expected! by kmarion76

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

I will definitely be cruising with Norwegian again! The experience was much more than what I expected. The staff were excellent, friendly and just amazing to be around. The food was delicious! There were tons of events on the ship, I was never in my room! I have been back for 2 days and I can't stop telling my friends how much fun I had! At $299 I expected a much worse experience, this was easily the cheapest, yet BEST trip I've ever been on!

Enjoyable by brkline5

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

Over all enjoyed the cruise.  I felt the food was average, a lot of hamburgers  hot dogs, and cold cuts for lunch.  The ship  was very clean, staff very accommodating.  The beds were extremely uncomfortable. Bedside lamp shades torn. I didn't feel that the services charges were not explained when cruise was booked

WAY too much maintenance. by jedavis220

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

If it weren't for the free drinks included and (some) of the friendly staff, I wouldn't even rate this a 1 star cruise. Upon arrival, they set the wrong luggage outside our door (which "has never happened in the past 9 years"). Luckily we are honest people and didn't take what we wanted from that bag and return it back in the hallway. What made us even more angry was they didn't even let us know it was there with a simple knock...they left it in the hallway for anyone to come by and take!! The man we dropped our ONE bag off with at 12pm said it'd be about 2 hours to get it, so we figured ok, give or take, we should definitely have it by 4pm, so we won't bother grabbing a change of clothes or anything. Customer service acted like they didn't even care when we called about our bag and said we would have it by 8pm, but we finally got them to put a priority on our baggage to the room. We also had to call them back because our cabin sink wouldn't drain...which they fixed right away but it clogged right away again the next day. 

 

Then there's the maintenance. Holy cow. Each day something was roped off for painting the boat, a pool was closed down for maintenance, or (my personal favorite) the front of the boat was closed on the very last night so we couldn't walk out and see the sunset. Their explanation? Oh we have to do some work up front. On the very last night?! Really?! Why the hell would you do all of this while you have passengers?!! There's got to be a better time for all of your new paint and upkeep that doesn't hinder everyone's cruise. The boat was already small enough to not keep us out of areas we should be able to go! Not to mention the pools got drained and closed off around midnight every night, which would have been nice to know. 

 

The food was crap unless you ate at a restaurant, and most of it was cold even though it was under a "heater". Needless to say, we will never go back on this ship.

Birthday Cruise by Cruiser359

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

We joined 14 other friends on this cruise and thats what made special for us. This was a short cruise but it was enjoyable and some in our party participated in karaoke and the piano bar. Grilling on the pool deck was nice. The ship looked well maintained. We weren't impressed with the specialty dinning though. I didn't think Cagney's Steakhouse

 was worth the time or money. Thats alright there are other dinning choices.  All in our group did enjoy the stops at Great Stirrup Cay and Nassau.

What a weekend!, by timwycoff

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

Great cruise from start to finish. Would do it again in a heartbeat. The only downside is that Nassau kinda sucks except for the Atlantis resort. Otherwise the crew Ned aff of Norwegian deserve a hi-five.

NCL is no Royal Caribbean or Princess: The Pros and Cons by stephanym

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Sky / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

This cruise was a great value for drinkers.

 

Maybe I shouldn't have been ordering fish, but all of my dinners were sub-par. The desserts were better. Dinner staff was nice, we loved our waiter Oliver. He was attentive, funny, and genuinely cared we were enjoying our meal. The buffets seemed like a potluck dinner without a unifying theme. But I guess there is bound to be at least one thing on the buffet you would like. The omelet station almost always had a long line (we aren't early risers on cruise time), but looked delicious! We never tried the sit down breakfast, but heard good things.

 

The beds were terribly uncomfortable and would un-make every time that I rolled over (multiple times a night, leaving the knotted corners in the middle of my shoulders). Although they do service the rooms twice a day, maintaining a fresh and full ice bucket. 

 

The staff around the ship were very nice. We had a great time at karaoke and the diverse crowd made it a great time. The bar staff at The Plantation Room (where karaoke is held) was also very kind. I didn't read until the end of the cruise that the bar staff aren't given a portion of the tip/fees we paid. I would have had some dollars with me to tip appropriately, had I known. Not many other people seemed to be tipping either. 

 

Can't comment on off-boat excursions, we stayed on ship because island time meant no lines for drinks and empty hot tubs! Our cruise was in early May, so we had a lot of college kids on our boat. Not sure if this is typical, but it did seem to draw a larger younger crowd on the ship than other cruises I've been on in the past.
