Norwegian Sky Cruises Review
Norwegian Sky Cruises 4 Star Rating: Cheapism Good Pick
Summary:
One of Norwegian Cruise Line's most famous ships, the Sky offers four-night Bahamas cruises out of Miami at $99 per person, making it one of the best values around. A casual atmosphere, plenty of activities, a spa, and comfortable accommodations appeal to thrifty travelers, but the dining options get mixed reviews. Passenger capacity: 2,002

One of Norwegian Cruise Line's most famous ships, the Sky offers four-night Bahamas cruises out of Miami at $99 per person, making it one of the best value cruises around. A casual atmosphere, plenty of activities, a spa, comfortable accommodations, and tasty food help this low-cost cruise ship stand out among customers and experts posting Norwegian Sky reviews on sites such as Expedia and Porthole.com.

Norwegian Sky's passenger capacity is 2,002. Trips range from three to four nights and depart from Miami, FL. Ports of call include Nassau and Great Stirrup Cay, and the ship has departures year-round. Staterooms range from basic cabins to deluxe villas and suites with floor-to-ceiling windows. Families also appreciate the greater number of connecting cabins found on this low-cost cruise ship.

But what appeals most to critics and customers is Norwegian Cruise Line's "freestyle cruising." On Norwegian Sky (or any Norwegian Cruise Line ship), you can eat where you want, when you want, with whom you want. The ship has six different specialty restaurants, as well as 10 bars and lounges. There's no dress code. Plus, there are more entertainment options for every age bracket than many inexpensive cruise lines.
