  1. Hey y'all!

     

    My Fiancé and I ( Michael) will be sailing on our first Norwegian ship a ways away... June 2019. We just booked this cruise for our honeymoon a few days back and I'm just looking for some thoughts and opinions on this cruise line.

     

    We booked a Aft facing Mini Suite, 7 Day cruise of the Western Caribbean. This is our second cruise together and second cruise to the western caribbean. A few different stops than the last time.

     

    Ports of call are

    Roatan Honduras,

    Belize,

    Costa Maya,

    Cozumel

     

    We have been to Costa Maya and Cozumel. Cozumel being our favorite. Spent out day at Mr. Sanchos.

     

    We will most likely stay on ship at Costa Maya. We were not too crazy about it last time. We want to have a very relaxing week and try to not be too overwhelmed like our last cruise. ( REGAL PRINCESS). We were always on the go and just want to have some time to enjoy ourselves ( IT IS OUR HONEYMOON!) and enjoy our cabin, food, and some drinks as well!

     

    We Picked two of the offers through NCL, the Ultimate Dining package, and also Beverage package.

     

    I would love to know what everyone thinks!

     

    Happy Cruising!

    Great weather at Princess Cays! ( My favorite stop)

  4. Same situation happened to me. Prices dropped about 400 dollars after the final payment. We were booked for a deluxe balcony room... I called and they upgraded us to a mini suite. That was all they could do for us but we were very happy about our upgrade.

  5. I am very late on my post but better late than never!

     

    Wanted to give my perspective of the ship from a younger crowds point of view ( I am 24 boyfriend is 25) I chose this ship after much research. I think the seller was the size of the ship and the great reviews on the food.

     

    My boyfriend and I spent the week on the regal for my spring break. We are pretty calm young folk ( haha) not big partiers so we found the older crowd on the regal not a problem. The only problem I noticed were the activities were geared toward a older crowd. Which we expected. But we still had a great time exploring the ship and playing endless amounts of bingo.l and trivia. Not having a lot of stuff for us to do caused us to spend a lot of time in the casino( haha) we were a little bummed the club was very quiet as well.

     

    We stayed on the aloha deck in a mini suite. (We upgraded after a price drop) (Aloha414) I absolutely loved our room. I kept hearing reviews that the location was not good due to the sky view being above. This did not bother us one bit. Barely even noticed it. The room was a great size and loved being able to close off the sitting area while we slept. Helped with the bright light of the morning sun. We also got a glass of champagne when we arrived. We decided to do the balcony breakfast one morning which was very nice and relaxing. Our balcony was also a great size. A lot bigger than I have ever had on a cruise. We had no problem with people on the sky walk above us. Having no stairs mid ship was a little problem but we were fine with walking forward or aft if they were busy. Only noticed them being really busy the first two days.

     

    We loved the food. Alfredo's being my favorite. We only did one formal night. We were a little bummed the second one was on the night of Cozumel. We were too tired to come back and get ready to eat in the dining room. That was the only night we did not eat dinner in the dining room. We were always sat right away.

     

    Boyfriend and I both purchased the unlimited beverage package. We are not huge drinkers but did find it well worth the money for we did not have to worry about how much money we were spending. Loved having the ability to purchase water bottles before bed and also as we were getting off the ship at ports. We also were able to enjoy coffees and gelato! Definitely recommend doing this. No stress and big bill at the end of the week.

     

    We spent our last night at the Crown Grill which was delicious and worth the up charge!

     

    Overall we had a very relaxing week on the ship. Would only change a few little things, like taking advantage of the adults only pool ( had lots of shade) and eating breakfast in the dining rooms ( did not know it was offered) other than that We really enjoyed ourselves and would definitely come back to the regal one day!

  6. Same situation happened to us for the regal in April.... Prices dropped but we paid our final payment already.... Called them up and they offered us a room upgrade! Went from premium deluxe balcony to a mini suite!
