Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), the innovator in global cruise travel, has revealed new and expanded offerings aboard Norwegian Joy, including an expanded spa to additional spacious accommodations, following a three-week dry dock.

David J Herrera, president of Norwegian Cruise Line, said: “We strive to evolve the onboard experience based on our guests’ wants and needs, and this is another example of how we put them first in our decision-making.”

Among the notable updates to Norwegian Joy and the onboard guest experience is the addition of the brand-new spacious Thermal Suite at the Mandara Spa and Salon, which is now the largest within the Breakaway-Plus class ships.

Complete with reinvigorating offerings such as the brand-new four senses loungers, a sauna, an ice room, and a steam room, Norwegian Joy guests will enjoy more amenities as a part of NCL’s renowned Mandara Spa experience, which was named ‘Best Spa’ by the editors at Cruise Critic in their 2023 Editor’s Picks Awards.

Additionally, Norwegian Joy’s The Haven by Norwegian Premier Owner’s Suites with a Large Balcony have been expanded to three bedrooms.

The two new suites include three bedrooms; three and a half bathrooms; a fully renovated living room, master bedroom and outdoor balcony furniture; as well as a new separate dining room overlooking the forward-facing The Haven Horizon Lounge.

The ever-popular and exclusive adults-only Vibe Beach Club also underwent an expansion and now boasts a similar layout to the Vibe Beach Club available on Norwegian Encore and Norwegian Bliss, with new private luxe cabanas.

In addition to the ship’s new offerings, Norwegian Joy boasts 21 bars and lounges; 16 complimentary and specialty restaurants; and a quarter-mile oceanfront promenade with breathtaking views of the ocean designed to connect guests to the sea.

The vessel also features thrilling activities for every type of traveller such as the Norwegian Joy Speedway; an Aqua Park; a mini-golf course; and world-class entertainment including ‘Elements’ and ‘Deal or No Deal’.

Norwegian Joy emerged from her three-week dry dock in Rotterdam, Netherlands on February 11, 2024, before embarking on an 11-Day Transatlantic voyage from Southampton, United Kingdom to Miami.

The newly revitalised ship is currently offering seven-day, round-trip Caribbean voyages from Miami before sailing to New York in the summer of 2024, offering cruises to Bermuda with overnights on the quintessential island.

Guests can book Norwegian Joy cruises with NCL’s Free at Sea programme which offers complimentary add-ons such as unlimited open bar, specialty dining, Wi-Fi, shore excursion credits, and on select voyages third and fourth guests in a stateroom only pay taxes. – TradeArabia News Service
