Or drop off the kids during supervised Group Sitting on port days or in the evening and make it a romantic night out. A Sailaway Inside stateroom guarantees an Inside stateroom or better! Your stateroom may be on any deck and assigned between time of booking up to one day prior to embarkation. Spa Club Balcony Suites include a queen-size bed, easy access to the adjacent Mandara Spa and fitness center, as well as complimentary access to the Thermal Spa Suites during regular Spa hours. With access to The Haven, these Penthouses feature a king-size bed, plus a sitting area. Its construction (under the name Norwegian Bliss) started on Sept 16, 2015.

You would sail out from the UK westbound on the Port side and on the return, you would do Starboard, as that side of the ship would be facing the sun. We originally booked an Interior room midship on the 11th floor for this cruise. But in the weeks previous to the cruise we received an email from Norwegian’s Upgrade Advantage program. On embarkation day, Norwegian Joy was docked at the Horizon Terminal in Southampton. This is the newest terminal at the busy port and it resembles a typical airport terminal.

And then let loose on the dance floor as a DJ spins your favourite tracks late into the night. Exclusive to guests in The Haven, you can enjoy your favourite cocktail and light bites while surrounded by ultimate luxury. Inspired by the renowned summer beach parties on the island of Ibiza, Spice H20 is an adult-only escape. By day, you can soak in a large hot tub or sip cold cocktails from your reclined lounge chair. Let loose and dance beneath the stars as vibrant images display on the huge video screen. Sit starboard, right alongside the sea where the view is intoxicating.

At the front of the lounge, there was a nice bar and a Starbucks. In the starboard section, they provided snacks in the afternoon at a little buffet area. There are so many different locations on this ship to either relax, socialize, or sit back and enjoy some entertainment. If you were to get bored on this ship, that probably would say more about you than the ship itself.
Freshly muddled just the way you like, enjoy a refreshing mojito with friends – day or night. One of our Main Dining Rooms, The Manhattan Room is where guests can enjoy specially curated modern and classic dishes made with the freshest ingredients.

During the event, the first keel block (weighing 680 tons, one of all 80 blocks comprising the vessel) was lifted by a huge crane and placed into the shipyard's covered building hall. Previously, a special commemorative coin was created and during the keel laying was traditionally placed under the first building block. The coin was blessed on March 31, 2016, at XingTian Temple (Shanghai) during a pledge ceremony to the Chinese goddess of the sea "Mazu". The ship's name "Norwegian Joy" (in Chinese "Xǐ Yue Hao") was announced on Feb 29th (2016). Norwegian Joy is one of NCL's Breakaway Plus-class/new series vessels.
Reminisce at The Cavern Club for musical favorites and singing along with the band. Captivating productions highlighted by music, dance, acrobatics and more are onstage at the theater. Spend an entire evening of laughter and dancing to DJ spun tunes at hotspot, Social Comedy and Nightclub. Norwegian Joy is a Breakaway Plus-class cruise ship operated by Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) and is the second of four Breakaway Plus-class vessels in the company's fleet.
Even the security scanners required the removal of laptops from bags like they do at airports. Additionally, due to it being a February crossing, the weather would not be ideal, so a lot of outdoor areas remained closed or had limited access most days. Get the scoop on what it's like to cruise in The Haven, from port to stateroom. With so many bars and lounges to discover, finding your favorite may take a few days.
I also believe they got the balance right where you could either get involved or not. On some cruise ships, you can’t seem to get away from the entertainment staff and simply enjoy some peace and quiet. Serving a wide variety of culinary delights to please every palate, our complimentary dining options include two main dining rooms, a help-yourself buffet and a variety of casual cafés, grills and on-the-go choices.
Joy and the sistership Norwegian Escape (October 2015) both had their names selected through contests hosted online. Norwegian Joy itinerary program was initially based on Asian cruises with roundtrip departures from homeports in China (Shanghai and Tianjin). The Inaugural Cruise (roundtrip from Shanghai) was on June 27, 2017. In comparison to the sister-ship Norwegian Bliss, Joy's racetrack is 20% smaller and has 8 turns. Bliss has 10, two of which are cantilevered over the ship's side. NCL Joy ship is currently scheduled for a drydock refurbishment in 2024 (January 6 thru February 16), to be conducted at Grand Bahama Shipyard in Freeport.
At the entrance to all the dining areas and restaurants on the ship, hand sanitizer machines were always available, and I never found any of them empty. On any ship more than a few years old, you will always spot some scruffy areas, but I never spotted any on Norwegian Joy. It was really hard to believe thet the Norwegian Joy cruise ship was 7 years old. The balcony, although on the smaller side, was a pleasant spot for the last couple of days when the sun finally appeared. Our stateroom attendant, Made (pronounced Maddie), was particularly attentive, offering extra hangers and ensuring our room was always impeccably maintained throughout our cruise. This actually part of the origin of the word “posh” to describe things that are that little bit nicer or special – Posh stands for “Port Out Starboard Home”.
