The Haven, Reimagined
As the very first Norwegian ship to debut The Haven in 2010, Norwegian Epic is once again making waves in redefining this luxurious enclave. In November 2020, The Haven on Norwegian Epic underwent extensive renovations. From reimagined Suites to redesigned experiences including The Haven Restaurant and The Haven Courtyard Pool & Sundeck, you can soak in true luxury at sea.
Just got off Caribbean cruise on the EPIC. Overall, we had a very good trip and enjoyed ourselves. Here are my experiences for the EPIC itself, hopefully, to help folks as they make future plan. I will make post about the Entertainment aboard and experiences with the excursions we took in separate posts… #norwegiancruiseline #norweigianepic #norwegiancruise EPIC * Not a fan of the weird bathroom layout * Very cramp rooms * Feet hang off the curved bed * We did not have any shelving room because of inside room door to another room that was never opened. Eventually found drawers under couch and two couch cushions swing out for storage. * On the 14th floor and did not rock as much as I imagined being higher up * No speakers in room, so could not hear any announcements in the room * Only one electrical socket under cabinet on small area. Brought a small electrical cord to stretch across floor to head of bed. Luckily had a small light on it so we could see it at night to prevent tripping. Make sure cord is approved for cruising. * Be aware, if you have patio door open, creates a suction and hard to open the room door itself. Could slam back on you or anyone trying to enter * We were midship on 14th floor. Exit & Elevators are long walk forward at cabin 14057 and rear at cabin 14167. * Some of the even numbers, such as 14096, have to come down starboard (odd number side to 15093) with a cut through hallway that goes back to port side (even number midship). This about doubles you walk depending on how far you have to go… * Make appropriate time on debarkation date. With everyone leaving the ship, elevators were extremely packed. Might not be able to have breakfast before you leave * Majority of the port of calls were on the starboard side Small elevators * Elevators are only forward and aft. * Usually packed goingbup or down, especially with The Garden Cafe and pool on 15th floor * Found ourselves usually going up from 14 to 15 so we could have room coming down * For awareness, 4th floor is not active until they announce ok for disembarking Steward * All I can say he was great. * Brought us coffee pot, made sure coffee packets were filled, and extra hangers day one. * Very attentive to our needs * And when we call housekeeping late at night, he answered the phone Buffet-The Garden cafe * Food mediocre, Tasteless * Not as much variety as other cruises I have been on. * Four sections with all the same options. * Buffet only had a few water stations around it and always line waiting * Cannot remember from last cruise, but glasses seemed to be smaller. Bring a drink container to fill up * All tea was instant and very cloudy. Took awhile to acquire taste * Cooked omelette one time and was half cooked. * Hand made crepe station was excellent, as such it was very popular * Be watchful of times it is opened. After 3:30, need to go to pool area to get food * Usually went to The Taste or The Manhattan for breakfast or dinner. Not long wait if any * Would not recommend the quick breakfast at The Taste. Scrambled eggs extremely runny Speciality Dining * As soon as you get on board, go to library to make or change reservations * Draw a number and wait. We got there and they were on 12 and our number was 57. About a hour wait and that’s with many folks giving up waiting. * Cagney not up to par as other NCL ships I have been on. Ribeye I ordered Medium Well and came back as Rare. My wife ordered filet Medium Well and came back extremely well done. Wife reordered filet again, and this 2nd time came back rare. Mgr did not charge us for her meal. Left one spare dinner on my account to use elsewhere. So we did not lose it, they earned another $50 from us once we booked another speciality dining * Other Specialty places were better, but not quality we had in the past. Entertainment * Started off with Burn to Floor play, and it lived up to the negative comments I read before coming on cruise * In my opinion, singers were not good at all. Could not make out words most of the times. Voices very nasally, sometimes whining and yelling. Most of the time it sounded like they were in the mic * Dancing however was entertaining * Did not recognize any of the songs * The Broadway 80s edition and Red, White and British plays had the same singers and dancers. Felt like both were just a continuation of Burn the Floor * Seems to be after each song for all three shows, folks started leaving in droves and at the end for couple of shows, stadium was half empty. * The Magician’s show was great. It was packed. * We went to the Comedy early show vs the late show (it was labeled as 18+). Standing room only and we got there 30 minutes early. It was great. * Not impressed with some of the smaller musical bands we heard. Not on par with other NXL ships. * Murder Mystery in Spiegel Tent was different and good. Better than expected. * Game shows if you have time were good as well
