When you step aboard Norwegian Encore, you’ll find a very large, modern cruise ship designed to offer something for everyone — from relaxed buffets and lively bars to waterslides, entertainment, and fine dining. The ship measures roughly 1,094 feet long and carries around 3,958 guests at double occupancy.
But if you’re a guest of The Haven, you’re in for an extra‑special cruise‑within‑a‑cruise. The Haven is described as a “private oasis” at the top of the ship: your own enclave with exclusive amenities, a private pool and courtyard, a dedicated restaurant and lounge, and personalised concierge and 24‑hour butler service. From the moment you arrive — at embarkation — until you disembark, you get priority treatment and first access to many of the ship’s services.
Even though you enjoy this secluded, luxury experience, you’re still part of the ship’s overall vibe: you have full access to the rest of Norwegian Encore — its dining venues, entertainment, spa, bars, and more — but with the added comfort and privacy reserved for Haven guests.
Living in The Haven doesn’t limit you to only the private enclave: you still enjoy the full variety of what Norwegian Encore has to offer. That means you can join in on pool‑deck fun, visit the ship’s spa and salon, browse shops, try games in the arcade, see live shows, or explore other entertainment venues.
And at the same time, you have your own exclusive retreat. The Haven features a private courtyard and sundeck, with a pool and likely more tranquil surroundings than the main decks — ideal for relaxing away from the crowds. bYour butler and concierge can help you manage bookings for shows, excursions or dining, so you get the best of both worlds: the bustling energy of the full ship and the calm of your private retreat.
Dining aboard Norwegian Encore is varied and plentiful: from complimentary buffets and traditional main dining rooms, to speciality restaurants, bars, and casual pool‑side grills. The ship boasts a number of dining venues — including buffets, main dining rooms, and speciality restaurants serving international dishes.
For you in The Haven, dining becomes something more refined. You’ll have access to The Haven Restaurant — a private dining experience just for Haven guests — where meals are served with extra attention to detail and guests enjoy signature dishes and a curated wine list. In addition, there’s The Haven Lounge, where you can relax with cocktails and light bites away from the bustle of the main bars.
That said, you’re not limited to the Haven‑only dining: because you still have full access to the rest of the ship, you can enjoy all the other dining venues aboard — whether you fancy a buffet breakfast, a late‑night snack at the pool grill, or a speciality dinner out with friends.
If you choose The Haven, you’ll be choosing from a variety of suite‑style staterooms — from roomy two‑bedroom Family Villas to forward‑ or aft‑facing Penthouses, and even a Premier Owner’s Suite if you want maximum luxury.
These suites are significantly more spacious than standard staterooms. For example, the Premier Owner’s Suite offers up to around 1,459 sq ft (plus a very large balcony of 488 sq ft). Other suites such as the 2‑Bedroom Family Villas offer around 538–622 sq ft (plus balcony space), or the Courtyard and Aft‑Facing Penthouses offering mid‑to‑large suite sizes.
Beyond space, what really distinguishes a Haven cabin is the service and exclusivity: you’ll have 24‑hour butler service and concierge service, priority for bookings and embarkation/disembarkation, and full access to The Haven’s private pool, sundeck, lounge and restaurant.
