If your perfect getaway means a balcony overlooking the wide open water for the kiddos to enjoy from the comfort of your room, Norwegian’s got it covered. Maybe you’d prefer a solo studio to retreat to while on a group trip with friends. Or, if you’re celebrating a 5-year anniversary and want to treat your partner to a bit of grandeur while away, bask in the elegance and intimacy that The Haven offers couples.
That is the beauty of the Norwegian Experience.
1. Norwegian Prima
Voted the Best Family Experience by Travel Weekly, there are endless amounts of family fun to be had onboard with NCL. One of their newest ships, Norwegian Prima would make for a sweet break away from the everyday for your loved ones on a family vacation or reunion.
While most Norwegian ships provide youth programs for all ages, the fun onboard Norwegian Prima may best be enjoyed by older kids who can partake in a bit more of the entertainment available. To name a few of the activities, options include:
Prima Speedway: The world’s first ever 3-level race track at sea! Spend a few hours (or a full day) zooming around the speedway to see who’s the speed racer of your crew.
Tee Time: A low-impact activity, fun for all or just the kids, enjoy a couple of rounds of mini golf at the first interactive and immersive mini golf on the wide open ocean!
The Bull’s Eye: Hang out in a comfortable and rustic space suited for all to participate in some rounds of darts.
The Drop & The Rush: Not just one, but two waterslides starting at deck 18 and cascading 10 stories below. Take turns racing to see who makes their way to the bottom fastest!
Pro-Tip: 3rd & 4th guests travel free or at discounted rates to select Norwegian Prima destinations! Prices may vary and are subject to change.
2. Norwegian Spirit
When it comes to romance onboard Norwegian Cruise Line, couples can expect nothing short of bliss when celebrating their “I dos” onboard any NCL ship. But, Norwegian Spirit is specifically designed with adult cruisers in mind. It is one of the smaller ships of the NCL fleet, and while children are welcome aboard, it does not offer dedicated areas for kids onboard.
With specialty dining options like Onda, their premier Italian restaurant, a Teppanyaki experience, and Humidor Cigar Lounge it’s perfect for couples looking for an intimate and elevated getaway at sea.
Enjoy entertainment onboard Norwegian Spirit ranging from the Elements dance and music show to the social comedy club for nights full of laughter and fun. Slip away for a moment to retreat and relax at the Mandara Spa, where they offer a variety of spa services ranging from couples massages to cleansing salt scrubs and so much more.
