I've been on plenty of cruises in my lifetime and I have always stayed in either a cabin with a window or a balcony room.  Estos habitaciones have suited me just fine; that is until I cruised in The Haven.

Most people put together a packing list before any major vacation. If you are going on a Norwegian Cruise Line vacation your packing list might vary a little bit depending on where you are going, how long you are going for, and which excursiones en tierra you plan on taking. But there are a few "must have" items that I bet probably aren't on your cruise packing list. Today, I am sharing my top 6 things you'd never think to pack for your cruise vacation.

If you’ve booked a Cruceros por el Caribe on Norwegian Cruise Line, chances are Jamaica’s ports of call Ocho Ríos y Falmouth were huge incentives for you. (And if they weren't, they should be!)  Although the entire El Caribe region may conjure images of endless beaches and swaying palm trees, every island charted on Norwegian’s Caribbean itineraries boasts a notable culture, language, and scenery. And Jamaica is, perhaps, one of the most unique destinations.

The news is out! Norwegian Cruise Line has named nationally-syndicated radio and digital personality Elvis Duran as the Godfather to Norwegian Bliss. The newest ship in the fleet, Norwegian’s sixteenth ship will sail weekly seven-day Cruceros en Alaska during her inaugural summer season and, beginning in November 2018, will trade in Alaska’s breathtaking scenery for stunning Caribbean sunsets as she sails seven-day Cruceros por el Caribe oriental each Saturday from Port Miami. But before the ship can set sail for any of these exciting itineraries, Elvis Duran will perform traditional duties as Godfather and help christen the ship at Pier 66 in Seattle on May 30, 2018.

Savvy world travelers already know that saving money while you’re on vacation is a surefire way to a faster next vacation.

Also, these days, more and more amenities like Wi-Fi, restaurantes especializados, and onboard credits, are being included with stateroom fares.

While you probably already know the golden rule of travel is to simply ask, the tips in this post will point you in the right direction.

You will often hear that the best part of cruising is, “I only have to unpack once”, or even “each morning, I wake up in a new port”.

While these are perfectly true statements, there are so many more reasons to love cruising … Here are some of mine.

Cuando se trata de planning a family cruise, it may not be as much about the destination itself as it is about how you’re going to get there. Choosing the right ship and the perfect stateroom all within your budget are the keys to keeping everyone happy.

My friend and I would run into my Mom in the atrium on a sea day and ask her to join us at lunch, she replied "no thanks, I'm busy with other things, see you at dinner" and with that, she walked away and I laughed. My own Mother had better things to do than spending time with me, her first born! That's life on a cruise ship.

When we think of celebrating the holidays, we usually think of family gatherings, crowded shopping malls, and getting together for copious amounts of food and drinks with friends. Instead of staying home and doing the same thing you do each season, consider taking a crucero en festividades to one of our many Norwegian Cruise Line destinations with your family or friends instead. You can always enjoy your copious amounts of food and drinks at sea, where you won't have to drive anywhere or clean up after the festivities are over.

My husband and I fell for cruising just before we got married. Our second cruise and honeymoon took us to the El Caribe. When we had our first child, we presumed our cruising days were on hold. But when I looked into holiday options when our eldest was 14 months, I realised children are very much included in the cruising experience.

Cruising done right can be a very thrilling adventure. Besides traditional Sports Deck features like soccer, basketball, dodgeball, or volleyball, you can feel like a super athlete by partaking in one of our more non-traditional activities like rock climbing with your family or friends. Our multi-level Sports Complex offers many opportunities for you to challenge others to a friendly game or get your workout in before you hit one of our many buffets.

There's no better way to see the islands of the world than aboard a cruise. What appears as a dot on the horizon grows larger and larger as you approach by ship, eventually becoming a swath of land just begging to be explored. From sunny specks of white sand beaches, to volcanic outcrops of towering peaks, and historic ports with sordid pasts, Norwegian Cruise Line visits islands in every corner of the world. Here, we list ten not to miss.

I was anxious to take my first cruise in 2006 when I was a resident in Orlando, Florida. There was a cruise port just about an hour east of where I lived and I had always wanted to try it. I was instantly HOOKED.

There's a popular quote by author Vivian Greene, who says: "Life is about learning to dance in the rain!" The same is true if it happens to rain on your cruise: you're still on vacation so why not make the most of it?

Whether you're cruising as a couple or enjoying time with your family and friends, doesn't it always seem like the little things are the most memorable? After the delight of seeing your ship for the first time, maybe your memories will include the ocean waves, breathing in the salty air, or simply watching the amazing sunset, moon and stars from your balcony. There are so many little things on your crucero that make a big difference; let's take a look!

I have to say my wife and I are not your average cruisers. We've only recently started cruising in the last 2-3 years. Traditionally when we vacation, we like to relax, splurge, go off the beaten path, and treat ourselves to a more laid-back luxury experience. For many years when planning vacations, though, the thought never crossed our minds that a cruise would give us this kind of experience. But then we researched The Haven by Norwegian Cruise Line. This was a different experience than our previous cruises. And if you are like us and gravitate towards a more exclusive, care-free, luxury experience, then you'll want to read further. This article will give you an in-depth look at what it's like to cruise The Haven.
