Mojito Bar is awesome an totally from scratch

where is Hamilton as it relates to the cruise dock? how do you get to Hamilton from the cruise dock? this is our first trip to Bermuda and we would prefer to do our own "thing" as well. any feedback would be appreciated. cost of Twizy?

Once a Haven guest, you'll never turn back. Pamper, pamper, pamper. We sailed the escape in the Haven for our 50th Anniversary and you would have thought we were King & Queen ;-). We were on the Inaugural cruise and it was absolutely fabulous. We're booked for Bermuda June 10th & yes........HAVENS!!! We're on the top deck this time. Spoil yourselves ;-)

wow----I stopped reading after the part where your boys were not paying attention to your announcement to you wife about your friend's accomodations. way too much personal info....FYI

we booked when you did and sailed in feb. we booked a haven suite and it was awesome. there were only a couple of restaurants that had an upcharge. (food republic and I don't remember what else?) Cagney was included for sure.

top deck!

deck 19 is the top of the top. we were in the haven but our children cruised with us and we spent time with them on deck 19/sun deck. there is a bar just at the bottom of the steps and there was NEVER a wait for service. Cheers!!!

ps - even in the haven where we were.

nope - just put some clothes on ;-)

there are more bars than the average person can visit. I would suggest the ULB package. Cheers!

relax....save your money on the wifi......enjoy your cruise mates/family.....life will be waiting for you when you disembark.

we were in the haven recently and never encountered kids on the sun deck. I guess it depends on the time of year you are cruising. vibe is next door to the haven sundeck so really unruly kids could possibly be a challenge for vibe guests.

we were recently guests on the escape in the haven and I can't imagine taking valuable cruise time to post to cruise critic. save your wifi money, enjoy your time and post later. your experience will be the same after your cruise! nice thought, though.

NCL will begin boarding when the prior cruise occupants are off the ship and security has cleared the ship for boarding. That said if you arrive early you'll be in the early boarding group. We were in the Haven, arrived around 10ish and went through security with no wait. The Haven has a designated waiting area and we were there until about 11:30 when we were escorted on board. I suppose the rest of the guest started boarding around noon or later. Hope this helps. There's plenty of seating and rest rooms in the terminal while you wait. If you board earlier than 1-2, don't expect your cabin to be ready. Eat, swim (take a suit in your carry on), and have a libation). Cheers!!!! Enjoy every second of your cruise. It ends waaaaaaaaaay too soon. :)

we were in the haven in feb. our adult children surprised us and joined us for our 50th anniversary so we spent time outside of the haven. none of us experienced any problems with service and all of us had he UBP.

Life is an attitude.....consider the number of cabins on the Escape vs. number of positive or negative reviews. We set sail this coming weekend in the Havens. I read all the reviews and take most of the reiews with a grain of salt. Book - GO - HAVE FUN - life is an attitude and seeing the positive or negative says a lot about a persons core.

I hope you get there! We're driving from Murrells Inlet (South of Myrtle Beach, SC) next Friday 2/5/16 and will board the Escape 2/6/16. Can't wait!!!!

If for 2 passengers/romantic cruise - H9 for sure. Unlike the other Haven cabins - - the Spa is free to H9 guests. The H9 cabins have in room Jacuzzis for two :-) :-) they have created these suites for romantic cruise weeks. ALL Haven perks are apply. Deck 16 - limited number of Spa Suites available.

Thanks for your review! We are in the Havens - deck 16 and set sail 2/6. Your review was refreshingly positive which is probably indicative of your approach to life. Thanks so much. This will be a 50th wedding anniversary cruise for us and we totally plan to have a blast! BTY we are only 45 at heart, body & soul!!!!!!!!!!1

Thank you. Your review was to the point and lacking personal detail that is not needed! We are booked in Havens on deck 16 early February. Much appreciate your insight.

WOW - so much info!

To crusin havey - not everyone that cruises are lucky enough to live in an area or have traveled to areas where they can frequent broadway shows. A "newbie" (virgin cruiser) should have the opportunity to form their own opinion vs. your take on the show experience on the Escape or any other cruise ship. I find it distressing that "experienced" travelers don't take into account that new travelers will be thrilled just to experience!

That's exciting. Sure you and our family will have a great time. Hugs to all.

my personal cruise consultant says you can take bottled water on board so long as it's still sealed. we're taking at least 12.

Unless my computer is having issues, I do no see a review of the Escape? That's what I'd like to see.
