LoginCruise to the breezy islands of The Caribbean, or simply sit back and sail through the world's greatest shortcut on a Panama Canal cruise. Whatever you choose to do, we invite you to experience the wonders of getting there aboard Norwegian Pearl. Her 16 chic dining options, 15 bars and lounges, dazzling casino, tranquil spa, and spacious Garden Villas are just a few things that make this Jewel Class cruise ship a destination of her own.
Recently traveled on the Pearl in the Haven 3-bedroom villa. Me, my sisteWr, brother and brother-in-law and my 8 yo disabled grandson. If you ever have an opportunity to sail in a Haven suite, do! We love cruising and NCL has never disappointed, but the Haven takes the experience to the next level. Our Concierge, Lou, ensured we were able to get reservations for shows, specialty dining and any other activities were available. Jafar, our butler, was always available to meet any needs or requests, at any time. I was a little nervous traveling with a wheelchair bound 8 year old for the first time, but NCL worked very closely with me prior to and during, to ensure any special accommodations or needs were able to be met. My grandson had to travel with special food (tube fed) and I worked with an accommodation specialist, prior to sailing to ensure we were able to bring all things needed on board without issue. Most other passengers were wonderful and did not make us feel we were in the way and were understanding. Dining - we ate at a variety of venues throughout the 11-day sailing. The buffet was good, nothing out of the ordinary, but good, great variety and certainly something for everyone in our group. As we were in the Haven, we were able to have breakfast and lunch in a "specialty" venue as there is not a Haven restaurant on the Pearl. As in the Haven restaurant on other NCL ships, the menu did not change from day to day, but enjoyed ordering different items on various days... the brie burger and shrimp louie turned out to be my favorites for many lunches. For specialty dining, we choose Le Bistro, La Cucina, Cagney's and Teppanyaki. My favorites were Le Bistro and Cagney's. We ate in the main dining room on most nights and I enjoyed the variety and being able to try different and new things. I was always able to have a wonder and relaxing dinner. I do love being able to order more than one appetizer/dessert, as sometimes you just can't make up your mind. I'm not the greatest in writing reviews, but wanted to say that NCL did not disappoint, all of the staff we encountered and interactived with, always made a feel special, even if only a smile and a greeting.
We recently sailed on the NCL Pearl, and overall, it was a solid experience with a few areas that could use improvement. The Good: Food: The buffet was decent, but the sit-down restaurants were a step up, and the specialty dining was significantly better. If you’re willing to splurge a little, the specialty restaurants are well worth it. Atmosphere & Pace: The balance on this cruise was just right. Having sailed Carnival in the past, I can say that while Carnival is definitely a party boat, NCL offers a nice mix of activities and relaxation. Whether you wanted to be entertained or just lounge, there was something for everyone. Entertainment: The shows were enjoyable—nothing mind-blowing, but still fun and worth attending. For the price point, the entertainment was in line with expectations. Value: For what we paid, this cruise delivered well above its price range. It felt like a good deal, especially for a short getaway. The Not-So-Good: Crew Friendliness: This was the biggest downside. The crew felt cold and disengaged. Rarely did we get a smile or a simple "hello" when passing by staff. Our fellow passengers were actually friendlier! While I don’t expect over-the-top enthusiasm, a little warmth and a "thanks for sailing with us" would go a long way. Room Steward: We never even saw our room steward the entire trip. The room was cleaned, so we know they were there, but the lack of a personal touch was disappointing. Final Thoughts: Despite the lack of warmth from the crew, the NCL Pearl is a great value for a short cruise. The food and pace of the ship were highlights, and while the entertainment wasn’t Broadway-level, it was still enjoyable. Would I sail NCL again? Yes, but I’d hope for a bit more engagement from the crew next time.
