Ship?

We have done both and found no clear preference. It's nice on 18 to be right across from the Haven Restaurant and on 17 it's nice to have easy access to the Horizon Lounge. We would be happy with either one.

FYI, the lunch and dinner menus are different in the Haven. My favorite embarkation lunch is a caesar salad and mushroom flatbread appetizer!

All the way down the street from where you drop off the luggage is the entrance to the port building. There is a sign for Haven and Accessible passengers on the right side. It is clearly marked. That line is where they just check your name and cabin number to make sure you are in the right place, and after that, there is a security line for everyone except us folks with disabilities.

Welcome to Cruise Critic anc congratulations! The Encore is one of our favorite ships. The atrium on Deck 6 has space as well as some meeting rooms.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity in taking time with this great review!

We like to drop off at the far end of the terminal where there is a special Haven entrance. It's on the west side of the terminal building, if I recall correctly.

I hope you enjoy Los Lobos. It is one of our favorites!

Amazon has a nice assortment of compatible pods. These machines are similar to the Senseo and take the same kind.

This is a good video of the spa:

Try the accessdesk@ncl.com I had some questions about something and they were able to get in touch with the ship directly and get the information for me. Have a great cruise!

Mr and Mrs Schmoopie are, in the words of Tina Turner, simply the best!

Correct!

The Dawn does not have a Haven restaurant but suite guests have breakfast and lunch in a specialty restaurant which does offer cappuccinos at no extra charge.
