NORWEGIAN BLISS Cruise Likes and Dislikes | Honest Feedback from our NCL Mexican Riviera Cruise

In this video I'm sharing my honest thoughts about what I liked and disliked from our Norwegian Bliss cruise to the Mexican Riviera. These videos always cause a little controversy, because everyone has different preferences - and that's ok! These are the elements from my personal experience that I liked and didn't like - and these may not be a problem for you, but can add some context if you ever cruise on the Norwegian Bliss or on the Mexican Riviera itinerary.

Hope you enjoyed hearing about my personal experiences on the Norwegian Bliss - and this is just a reminder that these likes and dislikes are based on my my preferences and travel style. So they may not be the same for you! 🙂

We sailed on Bliss last year in Alaska and will be doing a Mexican Riviera trip in 2 weeks. Thanks for the video. Just a note : You can refill your water bottles from the dispensers - they just don't want you putting the mouth of your cup/bottle to the dispenser for sanitation reasons. Just use a clean glass from the rack, fill it with water, and pour the water into your water bottle. Same with coffee - use one of their small coffee cups to fill up a larger reusuable coffee/travel mug. The water in your stateroom is also perfectly clean and drinkable.

Note to mention about buffet bars. Back in 2003 we went on NCL out of Charleston SC and they had hand sanitizer stations at beginning of buffets and had stuff spraying ur hands with s timers upon all embarkations. In 2007 we took Carnival out of Miami. They did not do this at all. I got the flu the Thursday before cruise ended on Saturday. I was up Thursday night coughing but didn't feel that bad and didn't feel like I had a fever. I went to buffet for breakfast then sat in on disembark speech. When we got to room I told my husband how to pick luggage. By 2pm he called medical to see if I could be seen. My temp was 103 at that time. Had the flu. Im sure I got it lying on float at beach. Put on quarantine which sucked as it was my bday. My husband had to get them to bring my chocolate cake and bottle of champagne to my cabin. When I got to customs in Miami the next morning the guy asked if I had anything to declare. I said yep a bottle of champagne and the flu....he looked at me and said u can go. He couldn't get me out of there fast enough. I wish Carnival had hand sanitizer at buffet. No telling how many people I gave the flu to beside my husband.

Great video! Thank you for sharing your honest thoughts about your Norwegian Bliss cruise to the Mexican Riviera. I appreciate how you presented both the things you liked and disliked during your trip. I agree that everyone has different preferences when it comes to cruising, but your insights will definitely add some context for those who plan to sail on the Norwegian Bliss or explore the Mexican Riviera itinerary. Keep up the excellent work!

Thanks so much! I have a cruise booked for March 12, 2023 (the Mexican Rivera) and just wanted to know the ship!

[chocolatemint]

Thank you for breaking down these different categories of comments. I hate it when people complain about things that have nothing to do with the cruise line or the ship

[MrSujano]

Great video! I liked the bartenders generous pours of my whisky!

[TheCountryCollectors]

Thank you for sharing. Your right it’s not for everyone! But they are ton of fun for us! You always pack in so Much great info and insight. I’m so
Glad that you did this series. NO WATER! That would not be ideal. But the food and wine looked great!

[LucasWorldTravel]

I like how your main dislike was that there wasn't enough beer. That essentially means that you had no complaints 😉. I'm so impressed that Alan uploaded every day while on the ship. That makes me feel so lazy. I have so much trouble posting while traveling. Glad you guys enjoyed your cruise experience so much!

I've watched a couple of your videos (about the Bliss in particular) and some videos from another YouTube channel creator (about cruising with Norwegian in general). You're both providing lots of good information, and as semi-experienced cruisers (two cruises, one each with RCL and Carnival), it's really helpful. My wife and I are scheduled on the Bliss for a 15-day Panama Canal cruise in December (early 40th anniversary gift to ourselves). We booked a balcony stateroom that is the same class (BA) as yours and we're really looking forward to our cruise. I'm definitely going to keep looking through your reviews of the various aspects of the Bliss, to maximize our enjoyment. Keep up the great work!

We are sailing on the Norwegian Bliss in July to Alaska. Your video was very helpful.

Lastly, the way to fill your water bottles at the buffet is easy. As explained by a worker on the Norwegian Epic last summer, use the provided plastic cups. Fill the cup and then pour the water and/or ice from the cup directly into your bottle.

I have already done a cruise between Helsinki and Stockholm and I was really delighted by this experience despite the short duration of the trip, I would like to do it again but for a longer distance and with several stops and places to visit like you did, thanks for sharing your experience and the tips about cruise.

[Travelsheesh]

Wow! Cruising is so fun! Thanks for your experience and detailed insights, it will be really helpful for people who are visiting this. We will definitely keep this in mind for future trip

I am booked on the Norwegian Bliss in May 2024 to Alaska! I cannot wait to see this beautiful ship, especially all those beautiful windows with the fantastic views in the front of the ship!

[Liveoutsidetheboxlife]

I'm booked on the bliss for August 2023 can't wait

[ChristyEVERS]

wow! What a bummer about the beer! I've never heard of a ship running out of beer before! Wow! too bad about the bottled water too. That's a main reason I like drink packages is for the bottled water being included also. I agree about the food. Specialty dining is nice, but not necessary. Ship food is usually amazing at the free locations. I love the color scheme of your room. I'm also a balcony girl. It's refreshing to see it had so much storage space. smart tip about the magnetic hooks.

[Mansoortastic]

I have had the experience of cruise and had a great time, its always a wonderful experience loved seeing your experience too. Great video

[StepsbyKaatje]

The elevator would not have been a big problem for me, I always take the stairs... 😜 The water, I think I would hate to buy expensive water!
But overall you sure had a great experience! Service is also an important one!
Great the way you put this video together! 😁👍
