Ship Highlights

Mid-size ship balancing space and intimacy

Dining Experience

Norwegian pioneered Freestyle Dining — no fixed times, no assigned tables. Choose from up to 30 dining options including complimentary O'Sheehan's pub, The Local bar and grill, and specialty restaurants like Cagney's Steakhouse, Le Bistro French, and Ocean Blue seafood.

Entertainment & Activities

Norwegian brings Broadway to sea with full-length shows, along with dueling pianos, comedy clubs, and live music venues. Ships feature multi-story go-kart tracks (Prima Class), Galaxy Pavilion VR experiences, and the Aqua Park waterslides. With 15 decks to explore, there's always something new to discover.

Staterooms & Suites

From studio cabins designed for solo travelers to The Haven luxury suites with butler service, Norwegian offers something for everyone. The Haven is a ship-within-a-ship concept with private pool, restaurant, and lounge exclusively for suite guests. Norwegian Star accommodates up to 2,348 guests.

Good to Know

This mid-size ship strikes a great balance between amenities and an uncrowded atmosphere. Consider a drink package or specialty dining package if you plan to dine outside the complimentary venues regularly.

"Our experience on Norwegian Star was absolutely incredible. The ship is beautiful and well-maintained, and the ports of call were amazing. We booked all our excursions through Vacation Booker and saved a fortune compared to the cruise line prices."

"This was our third cruise on Norwegian Star and it never disappoints. The staff is wonderful and the itinerary was perfect. We used Vacation Booker for a private snorkeling tour that was the highlight of the entire trip."

"First-time cruisers and we chose Norwegian Star. The ship exceeded all expectations. We loved how easy it was to book our shore excursions in advance, and the return-to-ship guarantee gave us total peace of mind."
