Norwegian Cruise Line has confirmed that Norwegian Encore® will undergo extensive updates to deliver more elevated onboard guest experiences including a brand-new Spice H2O; the expansion of two popular dining venues, Cagney’s Steakhouse and Teppanyaki; redesigned suites in The Haven by Norwegian®; and 24 new balcony staterooms.

Entering The Haven aboard Norwegian Encore, the glass doors close behind us with a reassuring whoosh. Suddenly, the rest of the 4,000 passengers are an ocean away as the concierge greets me by name and asks, “Ms Byrnes would you care to come this way?” Oh yes, yes I would.

Norwegian Cruise Line’s ‘ship-within-a-ship’ luxury offering, The Haven by Norwegian®, provides an expansive range of extravagant accommodation in spacious Suites, Penthouses or Family Villas for complete comfort. Coupled with the personal service of a concierge and 24-hour butler, the pampering of guests is endless.

Hidden away at the top of select Norwegian Cruise Line ships is The Haven by Norwegian, an exclusive enclave accessible by private keycard, featuring the cruise company’s most luxurious and well-appointed accommodation.
