Norwegian Joy emerged from a three-week dry dock in Rotterdam with 24 new balcony staterooms, a new Mandara Spa thermal suite and redesigned The Haven premier owner's suites.

Vibe Beach Club also was expanded.

The new thermal suite

The thermal suite's addition makes the spa the largest within the Breakaway-Plus class. Among the facilities are four senses loungers, a sauna, an ice room, an experience shower and a steam room.

Additionally, The Haven by Norwegian premier owner's suites with a large balcony have been expanded to three bedrooms. The two suites also have 3.5 bathrooms, a fully renovated living room, master bedroom and outdoor balcony furniture as well as a new separate dining room overlooking the forward-facing The Haven Horizon Lounge.

Vibe Beach Club

The expanded adults-only Vibe Beach Club now has a layout similar to the those on Norwegian Encore and Norwegian Bliss, with new private luxe cabanas.

Norwegian Joy is currently operating seven-day Caribbean cruises from PortMiami before redeploying to New York in the summer for Bermuda cruises.
