Where is the VIP area supposed to be? We were just there and I don't remember seeing one. Honestly if you plan on being in the water mostly (it is beautiful) then I'm not sure what the VIP area affords you. The service was fantastic even with regular admittance. We didn't need to flag our waitress down at all.

I keep seeing the VIP package which includes a dedicated server but it sounds like we don't need that at all.

Thank you!! I believe we will try LFK!!

We want to have access to the VIP area without having to pay for activities that we don't enjoy - we don't want to snorkel nor ride horses in the water. Was there a VIP area entrance fee? We would like to pay for what we want as we go.

Thank you sooo much for the suite perks info!!

Where do you order the exclusive beverages? Dinner? In room? Suite lounge? All 3?

We are considering booking the GS on LOS to sail in May 2017.

Do you have the pics of suite perks?

Thank you!!

A couple years ago, Princess offered a military veteran themed cruise from Houston which featured guest speakers and such. Plus it helped raise money for veteran charity groups.

Are these still going on? We are interested.

Thanks!

Looking at booking a deck 10 aft room on the Fantasy. Noticed there is a buffet/dining type area directly above.

Has anyone sailed this aft deck area on the Fantasy? Can you hear noise from chairs and tables from above?

Can we see the fireworks from the port or starboard side?

It is a long walk from the Aft Penthouse to the Haven area. Given you have a special needs child, I would definitely upgrade to the 2 BR. The Haven is wonderful and you will enjoy having all that it offers at your fingertips. We were in the Aft PH and it was great but next time we will do a 2 BR.

Our suite was 11308 which has the same layout as yours on deck 14.

This picture should help.

We loved having the window in the bedroom!!!

We sailed on the Liberty, in a GS, a few months ago

 

 

 

Breakfast and lunch seating in Chops for suite guests.

 

Breakfast had cook to order menu and lunch was carryin from the buffet

 

 

 

Our favorite perk was every meal, full menu room service, and enjoying it on our balcony

Thank you for this first hand account from your recent Liberty cruise.

How big was the GS? Do you have any pics? I am really struggling with which one to book. I'm leaning OS but if the GS is sufficient for 3, I would be ok with that I think.

Thanks y'all!!

One of the reasons I'm asking is DS 12 is celiac so WJ will not be a safe option -- cross contamination risk too high. So we will need other options for breakfast and lunch. I just hate the thought of kinda being forced to eat in the room all the time and not out in the restaurants enjoying the ship.

We just sailed in the Haven on NCL and we LOVED having that private dining area for breakfast and lunch. I guess I was thinking the Chops thing was similar???

Hi we are considering whether or not to book an OS or GS on Liberty.

Can anyone tell me if suite guests have the option of private dining for breakfast and lunch in Chops Grille? I thought I saw something about it on an older thread but wasn't sure if this was still going on after the recent "ship enhancements".

Thanks so much!

Awesome reviews as well. Thanks so much for the awesome photos. We sail this weekend on the Getaway, I wish we could see the menus better especially the Chef's Table. Thanks again and have a great day!

We just left Getaway Aft suite 11308 Saturday morning.

It was absolutely the best cruise we've ever had. Armando the butler will bring you anything you want from the Haven restaurant- drinks too. We LOVE the aft area and no it did not diminish our Haven experience. Your family will love the room :)

Enjoying this review! We are in the Haven on deck 15 in Aug and wanting to get lots of info as well.....love knowing perks ahead of time. We've never had our butler bring drinks' date=' but always have had exceptional service no matter where we were on NCL! I like the idea!

 

Keep it coming!

I got all the Haven menus the first day, took back to the suite and used them to order room service. Just call Armando and he will bring to you :)

If you would like me to email those to you, email me at robin.nichols@bossierschools.org

And I'll be glad to send you the photos direct :)

Chefs Table and the menu

$99 per person - 9 course meal including 5 different wines - 3 1/2 hours long - if interested ask the Concierge or Susanna in the Haven Restaurant first day you are there. We were invited to go but hubby has shellfish allergies and this has quite a bit of seafood on the menu.

Notice the coffee table with the large touch screen in it. You use that to view all your on board photos. Simply swipe your sail card and they all appear. Very convenient!!

Great review. We have this same cabin on September 13. I am concerned with the distance from our cabin to the Haven. Do you feel you got good service from your butler when you were so far away from the Haven? Last of all, we like to have a drink or two in the evening on the balcony. We have the UDP through a promo. My husband feels this cabin will be inconvenient for getting drinks and bringing them back to the cabin. He is interested in possibly upgrading to a 2 bd Haven suite in the Haven area. What are your thoughts and were you offered an upgrade from the Aft? It seems must sailings have many 2 bd suites left at the time of departure. Thanks for the help!

Yes we had fabulous service from the butler Armando. He will give you his business card with the extension the first day. Call him for drinks, food, anything and he will bring it right to you.

We were not offered an upgrade from the Aft Suite as this sailing sold out in the Haven area months ago--there were several large groups on board last week.

As far as the Aft goes, we LOVE being at the back of the ship as we enjoy the wake and the very large balcony. In the main Haven area, the balconies are very small. It just depends on what it important to you. We like the walking cause it's good exercise from all the wonderful meals :)

Hope this helps!

First days lunch in the Haven Restaurant.

Our son is celiac and the Haven went above and beyond to accommodate his gluten free diet. Susana the Asst Maître D was fabulous!! Those of you who are gluten free can eat safely knowing that NCL caters to whatever you want.
