Exclusive Lagoon Retreat GSC

Does anyone know if this has opened yet? It says "coming soon" on the NCL website. If so, has anyone been to it that can describe what it has to offer? Thanks!

Isn't this the private area for Haven guests?

We tendered to GSC from the Gem almost 2 weeks ago, and the lagoon area was still roped off and off-limits. Previously, it was opened only to *Away class ships with a bigger crowd (my understanding) and we liked being there - took the shuttle from the tender pier.

Not sure if anyone has made their way over or used the faciilities since last Fall when work started. Let that be a surprise if and when your ship anchored and tender you ashore.

Yes it is.

There was an article recently that indicated this area is the last to be completed and will be done by the end of the year.

Just wondering if you have a owner's suite on the Sky since they don't have a Haven area on the ship does the guest in there get to go to the private area on GSC. Thanks we have booked the Sky for April of 2018 cabin 8201 . Thanks for any information

I would think so. When I called they told me it wouldn't be finished until October but much before your cruise. I would call to make sure but being in the OS on the Dawn which also doesn't have a Haven we received all the perks so I'm assuming you would as well.

Thanks I'll call NCL and ask them.

Hurricane Irma bearing down and hitting Bahamas later with 72 hours and another tropical storm a few days behind on the horizon ... I would wait until next week or week after to find out, if and when they know upon damage assessment.

When GSC took a big hit last Fall, it took NCL a while to get back to the islaned and assess damages - Bahamas news, once they restore power & services after the storm and begin the recovery process, should and will likely have general updates on damages inflicted.

It doesn't look all that promising with 175 mph wind ... we are scheduled to be there as well, early November. :eek:

I just saw someone respond on an old thread that they reached out to NCL and were told it was delayed until March 2018.

We don't cruise until April 2018. Just trying to get all our ducks in a row. I'll keep my finger crossed that it may be open.

Not open. Photos taken on Sunday

Thank you love the photos

Any post Hurricane news?

Great photos! Are those pictures of the existing cabanas that are available to reserve now? They look a lot nicer than the pictures on NCL's website. Especially the small cabana.

Cabanas I'd consider: Those such as they have at Harvest Caye that have an enclosed air conditioned area, and the attached bathrooms were a big plus.

Those I would not consider: Open air cabanas which rely on a breeze or under powered fans for cooling.

It looks like the ones shown in post #13 might have A/C :)
