Onboard facilities will include Ocean Heights, a multi-level outdoor entertainment complex featuring waterslides, a ropes course and mini golf, Ocean Boulevard, an open-air promenade with infinity pools, hot tubs and dining venues.
The ship will also feature an expanded pool deck, family water-play areas, an adults-only Vibe Beach Club and nearly 2 000 staterooms. The Haven by Norwegian will offer 159 suites with private facilities, a dedicated restaurant and bar, and 24-hour butler and concierge services.
