Norwegian Viva Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Overall Norwegian Viva is a beautiful ship. The rooms truly felt like hotel rooms. However, the constant long lines at the buffet were a major disappointment.

Beautiful ship. Modern design. Spacious cabin and bathroom. Entertainment was great. Lots to do and see. Staff and customer service were great. Mandera spa was great and relaxing. Enjoyed a 1 day pass. Food in main dining room is hit or miss. Would definitely cruise this ship again.

Wonderful cruise. Great entertainment, especially appreciated the afternoon entertainment on two of the sea days. Beautiful ship, great entertainment, super friendly staff, and very comfortable balcony cabin.

The Viva was larger than most ships we cruise on. Our first time in the Haven more than made up for the overall size of the ship. We felt like we were on a private y

It was a wonderful cruise and just what I needed. Eating shopping and I stayed in the thermal spa. Spectacular

Overall it was very good. The only bad experience I had was after debarkation on the shore excursion that took us to the Venice Airport. The bus parking lot is far from the terminal and there a few but totally useless Norwegian employees to assist with questions and/or directions. In addition, there were a number of older travelers that had to lug their luggage from the bus parking lot all he way to the terminal with no help from anyone. At least, a few baggage carts should have been provided for these individuals.

Our cruise went exceptionally fine and was fine with a lot of different activities that happened during our breakfast/lunch/dinner. A word of great thanks to Sharmila Bardelas (waitress) who assisted my wife twice with orange juice, pieces of ham & cheese to suffice her hunger due to low sugar. Francisco at the indulge for our comfort and fast service of our food and Paulo at Hudson's for quick in taking care of our orders and delivery of our orders, a lot of good people working around the ship and too hard to mention all their names. Everything that we needed was greatly taken care of. Nice to cruise NCL. Our status have changed to Diamond after this cruise.

Beautiful Ship. Ship was not offering shared tables which is a great way to meet fellow passengers Great wifi . Unfortunately since we were on tours 9-4 each day unable to relax or enjoy the ships amenities.

All was Great. Will be Back in the Near future. All Tours were Great and had lots of Fun Great Tour Guides and Bus Drivers. Lots of information on all Tours very knowledgable Guides made it Interesting. Easy to make Excursions Times.

Staff was amazing - at the restaurants, at the bar, and Starbucks. Rooms butler... everyone was amazing... Special thanks to: Ravi, Ricky and Craig at Whiskey Bar Victor - Room Butler Pearl Ann - El Bistro Somelier Harold - Indulge Pradesh, Ragnish and Jayant at Indulge Mr Gilda, Gilda and Richard at Starbucks

That back to back 18 day cruise was our best vacation ever. We are going to make this fall back to back cruise an annual tradition for us in the Mediterranean. We loved everything especially the Haven and the people….so many. And we stay in touch with them too!

Very disappointing the ship was not ready for sailing with a full ship. Ship was short staffed and staff was not trained. Could not answer basic questions. All specialty dining options were booked, but when we ate in them, they were over half empty. Was told they did not have enough staff to fill them up. Same for the shows.

If this was our first NCL cruise, probably would not cruise again but had a great time on last NCL cruise. Planned this trip over 20 months ago for our 25th anniversary and disappointed is all I can say

The Baths Virgin Gorda were beautiful. Antigua historical tour and beach was interesting and fun. Snorkeling in Barbados was the best. Chartered a fishing boat in St Lucia. My husband reeled in a lot of fish. Road four wheelers in St Marteen. This was a top vacation for us.

I will come back again. Hopefully soon. Not many activities during the night

I think it was very good. My husband and I went on the cruise to rest, take it easy and enjoy the beautiful sites. I am retired. Everything was really nice, the cleanliness, orderly manner, most of the crew very polite and friendly. The hours of the food buffet should be longer, food was usually the same, I think it should have more variety.

Great new ship with excellent amenities and activities. Beautifully designed and outfitted. Well staffed with friendly and helpful crew. Excellent service one won't see in the 'real world' ! No complaints really !

Overall great cruise, but left me missing sea days

I enjoyed my time. It was pretty decent. The Casino host during my voyage leaves a lot to be desired.

Overall the cruise was very good and enjoyed spending time with family. I loved the cleanliness of the ship but the staff wasn’t very welcoming. I’d still sail on this ship again because I believe it will all come together after the newness wears off. The room steward said they were short staffed so it was understandable why we only saw them once a day.
