Escape Late-Night Life, Dance Club

[solo_cruiser_85]

Is there a "club scene" on Escape? Something like Allure's Blaze or Liberty's Catacombs? Something open til at least 2am with a DJ? Allure's club was active until 3-4am almost every night, with a decent dance floor (for a cruise ship). It sounds like Escape's H2O might be what I'm looking for, but it's out on the deck (I think), which could be chilly sometimes and drive people away.

In TheDougOut's live review, it seemed like the Skyline Bar off of the casino was always hopping late night. It's probably as club as we are going to get :).

I was only on it for a 3-day so far, but I was on a 7-day on Getaway and it was the same setup, the club on deck. It was pretty busy but I wouldn't say it went until 2am. I definitely think it being on deck has something to do with it, I know myself personally I got annoyed with my long hair blowing around in my face and I didn't last long. The one cool thing is that they have the huge screen and a lot of space to dance so it does seem like a good party atmosphere. Hey, if you and your crew take it over I'm sure it will be fun. :)

Yes, the Skyline Bar has a dance floor and was busy late every night. I think they had a DJ every night too.

It really depends on the passenger mix...and if there are late-night partiers, or early-to-bed folks!

On the Getaway, why didn't you go to Bliss, the nightclub?

My understanding is that the Skyline bar becomes a disco at night. But it's wide open to the casino, not a separate room. Not sure I'll like that! It seems that NCL wanted to combine the nightclub and casino bars to save money.

 

It is in the same location though as Bliss on the Getaway/Breakaway.

Go to https://www.cruisedeckplans.com/DP/deckplans/Norwegian-Escape and look at Deck 7. There are many pictures to view of Skyline (and other parts of the ship of course.)

Just off the Escape and there were several areas that were hopping until the wee hours. The nightly dance party in Spoce H20 usually starts around 10:00 pm. Not sure how late it goes.

 

The Skyline Bar had music every night. It is adjacent to the Casino, but once you are in there, it feels very seperate. Great atmosphere. Five O'Clock Somewhere Bar had live entertainment and big crowds. The District Brew House also had live entertainment and we passed it often on the way to our cabin. We could often hear the crowd singing along. No dancing, but Howl at the Moon goes fairly late and is a lot of fun. Rather than one big "club" room, the concept on this ship is to offer several different venues with different entertainers. Compared to the Getaway, we found it it be a much more lively and fun atmosphere.

Huge help, everyone. Thanks! Especially punkincc for the detailed, first-hand Escape experience. Still curious about the actual last-call time for drinks, though. "Wee hours" can be drastically different for different people.
