Amy, we are just off Merivaglia YC following a week on NCL Joy Haven. I believe you will be impressed. For us, Win MSC. Butlers, Concierge, Food, Champagne, Private Island, Check-in, Service.
Precovid, our butler and room steward had decorated our room for my birthday, upon return from an excursion. During dinner a cake was delivered. Went back to the room and they had redecorated and added a bottle of champagne!
That is great!
What are some wonderful things your butler has done for you? (From some other posts seems experience and training are better than haven and retreat.) Thanks.
Anyone onboard now or when you embark soon willing to post day 2 daily who's on board and casino welcome letter with names at the bottom. Obviously this can change with crew vacations but still curious. Thanks.
Been on NCL Haven open for lunch all days. Love it. Been on Celebrity Retreat, Luminae, not open for lunch port days. Don't like it.
MSC yacht club restaurant. open or closed on port days? (not sun deck)
For a 3 p.m. departure do they start embarkation earlier than usual. Dailies usually state all aboard 2 hours before departure. To have everyone on at 1 p.m.
In the Haven lounge anyone know the times the snacks come out. a.m., noon, evening? Not a fan of buffet but would be o.k. if there when they first come out.
Being close to kicked was while we were eating breakfast in the yc restaurant. Didn't have many of regular breakfast items, syrup, toast. The attitude was It "ok" we are done with you. Ba Bye.
Can you explain please If pre cruise concierge is for booked sailings in the Haven. What is all of this: She has fantastic access re: upcoming sales, sailings, "hidden" perks and special events?
Is there a Haven Manager? Have not met or seen on 2 haven cruises. Have seen concierge and assistant concierge at the desk. Assistant Maitre D' at restaurant. Bartenders and bar staff. Butler and room steward as well. Is their role mostly behind the scenes?
