roundy72 Posted August 14, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Hi folks! Preparing to book a 7-day NCL in the Haven. I have a few questions which hopefully some of you can clarify. Being a Haven guest, I'd have access to the Haven lounge, where all drinks are free? If so, the add-on perk "drink package" for two now requires the gratuity to be paid, totaling about $230 USD. I'm not a big drinker, even on this cruise cannot see myself nor wife having more than 3-4 drinks per day. That being said, the drink package sounds pretty wasteful, considering whenever we're thirsty for an adult beverage we can just pop into the Haven? Am I right?

Rare ColeThornton Posted August 14, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 14, 2017 No, you are incorrect. Drinks are not free in the Haven bar. If you don't want the UBP as a perk just let NCL know and you won't get charged the gratuities. However, if you and your spouse have about 4 drinks each per day you will come out ahead with the UBP.

Two Wheels Only Posted August 14, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Drinks are not included in the Haven. If you do not get the promo and don't pay $99.54 per person, you will be charged for each drink. If you plan on 3-4 drinks per day, it is better to get the promo and pay the 18%.

roundy72 Posted August 14, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Thanks for the replies, folks. Is food free at the Haven restaurant for Haven guests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaide612 Posted August 14, 2017 #6 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Food is included in your cruise fare - nothing extra to pay in Haven restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Até Posted August 14, 2017 #7 Share Posted August 14, 2017 The only thing I think differently about is that in a standard cabin the three-four drink per day break even is true because you have to calculate that you are giving up some other promo to take the UBP. In the Haven you have access to all 4 or 5 promos for "free" so it is more like a one-two drink per day break even point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
