Never seen that happen. Only thing is seating in main show for os, dos, gv on Dawn and Jewel class. Even with that, some concierges will reserve one side of the upper portion for all suite guests in addition to the reserved section for os, dos, gv. Maybe GVers get something but haven't seen a specific mention of vip for any of those categories other than what is advertised.
Well I guess if you have never seen that, it mustn't be so...... OR others only prefer to sail on the older ships and thus when dealing with NCL cruise consultants etc. hear it all the time. FYI When you are on the older ship (The Star as example) they don't call you VIP.

I believe the older ships that do not have a designated Haven section has premium room, i.i Deluxe Owners Suite.... Garden Villa, etc. The premium room guests are referred to as VIP

I've seen your videos on YouTube -- great job, btw!
My family is staying in 14500 on the star to Mexico in December. Never been on NCL or in a GV.
Just wondering if you had any issues with people trying to get into your villa via the back gate from the basketball court?
I've read a couple people having this issue. Makes me a little nervous.

We used that door a few times... both to exit; and to enter the GV. If you use the back entrance, just make sure you lock it after you. We didn't have any problems.... Clint, the Butler told us of a few issues past guests had.
As far as the condition of the Garden Villa (Woodwork etc.) We had one minor issue with the toilet in the suite closest to the balcony area.... but they immediately fixed it. The rest was in good order and easy on the eyes.

What was the condition of the room?
The room was well kept. They did replace all of the mattresses on the last day while we were waiting to disembark the ship. One suite had a leak in the bathroom, but they came up and fixed it.

My family cruised the Mexican Riviera March 2 - 9, 2014 in room 14000 Garden Villa.
The experience was wonderful. We had 4 adults, 1 teen and 2 children with us. The service they provided my family was unforgettable. We ate dinner one night in the Villa (Party of 13) and the service was A1+.
The only draw backs to the experience was, we were never told about the music options for the balcony area and how to turn the lights on in the kitchen..... yeah, I know I would take those issues every day of the week too!
Here is the video tour we made of our Garden Villa. It is a 2 part video, inside and outside video.

Just off the Star on Monday. We were told that the Star will be in drydock this February.
We sailed on the Star in March and was told by officers while on a tour of the bridge that the Star would be dry docked in Feb. 2015. (The bridge officer pulled out this big binder style book and looked it up) We were surprised because we were scheduled for a Panama cruise during that time.
We contacted NCL when we arrived home and they stated their computers don't show the Star going into dry dock in Feb. 2015.

Just out of curiosity.... has anyone ever heard if NCL upgrade fairy upgrade passengers to the Garden Villas? We are booked in a DOS and dreaming "What if" we got the call from NCL. Hey, we can dream can't we? :D
Garden Villa experiences

We have cruised in the Garden Villa both on the Star and the Jewel (Star was on a Mexican Riviera and Alaska on the Jewel).
I liked the Star GV 14000 better because of the monstrous balconies and the room we had included a galley kitchen Rm. 14000
My family liked the Jewel GV 14000 more. My wife really liked it more because it was more modern looking and my kids LOVED the swimming pool area.
