Noted as one of the smallest ships in the fleet, measuring in at 848 feet in length, this vessel offers a luxurious and cozy vacation for anyone who wishes to visit some of the most interesting and sought after vacation destinations in the western hemisphere.

This ship is home to the expansive Stardust Theater, a regal auditorium that comes alive at night with entertaining acts that will take your breath away; several outdoor swimming pools and hot tubs, and shopping experiences that appeal to anyone with a flair for designer brands and fine jewelry. As part of the renovation project, this ship has completely redesigned staterooms that provide for a restful and relaxing stay. From mini-suites to luxury penthouses inside The Haven, you will be treated to new furnishings and plush bedding. Get ready for a cruise like you have never experienced before!
Ship Reviews
The Norwegian Sun receives mixed reviews, with many guests praising the friendly and hardworking staff, enjoyable itineraries, and good value for money. However, there are consistent criticisms regarding food quality, ship age, cabin comfort, and occasional issues with excursions and customer service. Entertainment and activities are generally appreciated, though some guests found them lacking compared to other cruise lines. The ship's cleanliness and atmosphere are mostly positive, but crowding and maintenance issues are noted. Overall, the Norwegian Sun offers a solid cruise experience, especially for those seeking value and a relaxed atmosphere, but may fall short for travelers seeking luxury or gourmet dining.
Service is frequently highlighted as a strong point, with many guests commending the staff's friendliness, professionalism, and dedication. However, some guests experienced inconsistent service, particularly with cabin stewards and customer service.
