Creator's Key Takeaways

the Haven looked and felt stylish and premium although as you'll hear it was lacking in several areas

the Haven menus did not change it was the same breakfast lunch and dinner menu every single day

the Haven is not an adult experience but as I will explain Norwegian could have done some things that would have catered better both for adults wanting that experience and families at the same time

the cabin was absolutely the highlight of the Haven for me

Creator's Tips & Advice

Consider a smaller luxury all-suite ship for a more personalized experience if budget allows
Be aware that Haven perks may not justify the high cost compared to other cruise options

YouTube Video Description

Just before my much anticipated and costly $1,800 a night cruise in Norwegian Viva’s all-suite Haven, “Cruise with Ben and David”, one of the leading YouTube cruise channels, released a critical review raising many issues and complaints about it. So many that friends of mine suggested I cancel, as they knew that it was THE most expensive Mediterranean cruise I had ever booked. As it was so costly, I was really torn but in the end I decided to risk it hoping that as they'd been on the maiden voyage, things might have improved. This is what I discovered.
