Overview
Enjoy a completely rejuvenating experience on the Norwegian Pearl.
This ship has serene spaces like the Tahitian Pool where you can soak in the sun and the Corona Cigar Club where you’ll be presented with hand-rolled cigars and a glass of cognac, perfect to unwind after dinner.
Of course you won’t want to miss out on a truly blissful experience at the Mandara Spa, which offers massages, facials and full body treatments.
After all that rest and relaxation you’ll be ready to bust a move at the White Hot Party, Norwegian Pearl’s quintessential party experience.

We were pleased with every aspect of staff and service crew. We are not regular cruise clients and our last cruise was 20 years ago so we have nothing to compare it to, but I think that the value is excellent. We felt safe and well cared for all of the time. Shore excursions were all excellent. NCL does very well in scoping out these tours and it all runs like you expect. Communications were always well done and nothing left to chance.
Pros: Excellent staff. High quality ship maintenance is apparent. The 11 day cruise ran like a well oiled machine and I appreciate their commitment.
Cons: Entertainment talent was not the best.

Norwegian Pearl
This introvert felt a tad anxious that she would be in a little hellscape of bouncy house antics but I really enjoyed my cruise experience. There were some physical places that did suggest peace and quiet for those who liked/needed that. I liked having a variety of imaginable foods in portion sizes that encouraged one to stay healthy vs eating to excess. The evening theatrics were quality. If anything maybe give the performers about 10 more minutes because some I thought needed more time to do their thing. Either I have changed as a person an was able to handle thousands of folks or the Pearl does a good job of handling a variety of personality types. Either way I returned home feeling better for going on a cruise.
Pros: variety of foods - with high degree of health awareness,great spa services, game shows in early afternoon, quality theatrical pm programs
Cons: some confusion on check out statement but it got cleared fairly fast

We traveled with 3 children and 6 grandchildren, a total of 11. There were a variety of formal and informal dining areas and we had no trouble making reservations to eat dinner together. The young people enjoyed karaoke, trivia games, music, the climbing wall, games and just hanging out together. My husband and I could take part or rest as we wished. The entertainment included a variety of musical shows, magic, and comedy, which we all enjoyed. I loved how the ship took us right into Glacier Bay so that we could enjoy the glaciers up close right from the ship. On a practical note, the facilities were clean, the food was good, and the service was excellent.
Pros: Variety of venues for dining and entertainment. Good food and great service.
Cons: Tiny cabins. The lovely Spinnaker Lounge was constantly noisy with loud bingo games, etc.

Norwegian Pearl
We had to wait in line for one and one half hours to get aboard a tender to take us back to the ship in Astoria. The food was the best we have had on a cruise ship to include the so called upscale lines. Unless you just wanted to go to one of the special resturants, there was no desire on our part to do so. Lots of activities and things to do for all interests throughout the entire cruise, especially on sea days. We were disappointed we did not get to go to one of the original ports (San Francisco). Other than that, a great cruise and time.
Pros: Very friendly attitude from the crew.
Cons: Escessively long time boarding the tenders at Astoria, Oregon.
