NCL Joy Full Review: Was it as bad as they say?

Thank you I really appreciate your video. My husband and I are booked on an upcoming cruise on the Joy and I started watching NCL Joy videos and was worried we made a mistake but after watching you guys I feel much better. Happy Cruising 🚢🚢

I loved the Observation Lounge. It's a great place to relax. Truly a "room with a view." I also enjoyed the Waterfront areas on Deck 8 outside the specialty restaurants. It's a nice place to quietly relax during the day. The Cavern was also a nice place for evening entertainment. I found myself at the Local often when I wanted something tasty and quick. The Brewhouse was right next to my cabin and I like beer, so it was perfect. The Q was great food with entertainment at dinner. I enjoyed the Joy enough that I will look for more Joy adventures.

Great video Folks. I just booked the NCL Joy for NYE 2024/2025. It will be our first time on NCL Joy. Thank you for all your tips and insights. Definitely adding to my excitement! 😊

Thank you both as you put me at ease as we just booked a back 2 back on the Joy to Bermuda. Not looking forward to the terminal but gotta do what you gotta do. new subscriber and enjoy you commentary and fun conversation.

Boarding the Joy this coming Wednesday from NYC to Bermuda. Thanks for your review. Looking forward to it.

I just subscribed. We cruise on the Joy in a few weeks. Thanks for the reviews, especially the food info. I am really looking forward to the Food Republic.

Thanks for the review! I will be on this ship next November so I have a while before I’ll be on … my first NCL cruise.. I’ve done Royal and carnival so it should be exciting trying a different line.

We like NCL Joy very much , the layout is good for my husband in the wheelchair ♿️, crew was the best . Shows , food very good . Going back on Joy soon .

Do you pay extra for specialty dining if there are only 2 people in a room?

Im glad I found your review. Im contemplating on going on Joy or not only because apparently there isnt a Thermal pool in the new Thermal Suite they just added. How stupid is that !?

Sorry to keep commenting. I just read your bio on your channel and wow. And so true. My kids are 12 and 14. We’ve never done a family trip. I’m a single mom for the last 11 years. I’m surprising my kids with a cruise at Christmas. Due to flight costs Had to do carnival Mardi Gras as you know from my comments and not the Norwegian encore but I want to give them the memories of a lifetime. They’ve never been on a plane or seen the ocean. Not real sure yet how we’ll get port Canaveral but I can’t wait to see there faces when they find out. I too about died from a hysterectomy in 2020 life’s short.

This will be our 2nd time on the Joy coming up🎉 This will be our 11th NCL cruise. My only problem with the Joy is that they don't have Los Lobos😢 on board...gonna have to do the Encore or the Bliss again 🤔 😂 Thanks for sharing ✌🏾 😊

Thank you, going in June for 7days 😎 Unfortunately have to wait for balcony guarantee room, praying it’s a good one. 🤞

I was just on the prima. That food was amazing. I can’t wait to go on the joy in December 2025. So worried when I go on carnival this December it won’t compare

im going on the joy in 3 days.,... im just a freak about bedbugs.. and some video or review show some issue with NCL (this ship and another )... hopefully we dont catch that...

Unfortunately Footloose got the axe. I won’t get to see it on my cruise next month.

Nov 11th we set sail on the joy and we can't wait

Never had an issue at this terminal even when we had to covid test it was so fast and smooth. Perhaps worse in summer months. We go off seasons. Im almost at Platinum, is there a perk of priority at the terminal???

Disney Cruise Line entertainment & food is excellent!!!!

Thanks for sharing we are going on this ship in 2025. New friend here.
