Creator's Key Takeaways

after 44 cruises, three cruise ships have stood out as being significantly better than the others I've cruised on.

I can't imagine myself in anything but a Havana cabin with access to the quiet uncrowded Havana pool for my future Carnival Cruises.

Norwegian bliss really is in my opinion the state-of-the-art in cruise ships right now.

the Haven on Norwegian bliss is the best of the best.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Consider flying into Newark Liberty International Airport to cruise on Anthem of the Seas even if you don't live in the New York area.
βœ“If you can afford it, try the Haven on Norwegian Bliss for a premium uncrowded experience.
