The Haven, Reimagined
As the very first Norwegian ship to debut The Haven in 2010, Norwegian Epic is once again making waves in redefining this luxurious enclave. In November 2020, The Haven on Norwegian Epic underwent extensive renovations. From reimagined Suites to redesigned experiences including The Haven Restaurant and The Haven Courtyard Pool & Sundeck, you can soak in true luxury at sea.
I agree with some other reviews -- the ship is quirky --- when you walk in the balcony room there is a shower on one side and a toilet on the other, both behind frosted glass doors with a privacy curtain separating from the bedroom area. The sink is IN the bedroom area. So, you watch TV while your partner brushes teeth and shaves? Really weird. The room is small and includes a curved couch that is not useful and takes up too much space. There is lots of storage space. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. Another quirk -- the elevators will go to deck 6 and then you have to walk to 5 or take an escalator to get to Taste restaurant or to the help and excursion desks. Meanwhile, you are walking through cigarette smelly casino. And yes, the casino takes up too much space. HOWEVER, we had a really nice time and there was a lot to enjoy. The food at Taste and Manhattan was very good and so much better than dealing with the buffet. The specialty restaurants we visited were La Cucina and Le Bistro. The food was great as was the service and the ambiance. We went to the buffet once for breakfast (Taste all the other times) and once for lunch (Taste all the other times.) The food was adequate there but we mainly ate salads at lunch and eggs for breakfast. It was a bit hard to find a table so we shared with others, inviting ourselves to join people. The pool bar was always crowded with people waiting to be served. Better to ask one of the waiters for a drink. Other bars were busy, too, but I am not a drinker so it didn't much matter. We had no trouble finding places to sit on the deck. H2O is an adult only area with a big screen that played sports games. It has its own pool. It was a bit close to the exhaust of the ship so we chose to sit elsewhere. I was happy there wasn't loud music and people on microphones organizing pool games all day in the main pool area. We paid $349 each for the thermal spa that has nice locker rooms, robes, steam and sauna in the lockerrooms and the same in the communal area. Nice lounge chairs for reading and relaxing. There is a warm pool in there with waterfall-type things coming down to run on sore muscles. We got them to turn up the hot tub as it wasn't warm enough. It's supposed to be a quiet area but many of us had to ask the managers to have people quiet down. Even after being asked, people ignored the request. That was annoying. There is a nice covered balcony area with chairs and lounges. You can look out the back of the ship from that location. We also each had a massage. Wait for deals. One day they offered 75 minutes for $199 and it was much higher if you booked on day one for a future massage. 20% gratuity is automatic. Needless to say, the biggest part of our bill was thermal spa x 2 and massage x 2. Personally, I thought the cost of the thermal spa was high but my husband thought it was great and worth it. The excursions were fine -- it rained in the Dominican Republic. We had a beach day. They let us cancel and get a refund. We went snorkeling in St. Thomas and ended at Honeymoon Beach which was nice. Not a lot of fish... the reefs seem kind of dead.. But we did see several turtle and a huge one swam right under me. He had to be three feet long and a bit less in width. We did the Beach Break in Tortola and that was fantastic, 4 hours on a lovely beach. Bring money -- it's $10 for the beach lounge, more if you get an umbrella. Prices for drinks were reasonable. The trip over and back was fun with very steep incline on the way there and the opposite on the way back. Burn the Floor show was FANTASTIC! The dancers are so talented. Be sure to see that. The Epic Beatles were also fantastic! They were great musicians -- the "George" looked like George, the others not so much, but that was fine. The music was great. Especially fantastic was Sgt Pepper night with their costumes matching the Beatles' costumes and the music fantastic. All in all, it was a very fun trip. The ship is not super fancy but is updated and clean. Great food, great entertainment (though I wish they would bring back the Broadway shows) and great service.
