Before booking your cruise on Norwegian Breakaway, it's helpful to be aware of certain aspects regarding additional costs. While many experiences are included, a room service fee may apply for convenience. Access to the Vibe Beach Club, an exclusive adults-only retreat, requires a pass or cabana for the duration of your cruise, and these are limited. Most specialty dining venues, offering unique culinary experiences, operate with a cover charge. When visiting Great Stirrup Cay, Norwegian's private island, complimentary meals and activities are provided. However, an upgrade to Free at Sea Plus™ can extend premium beverage packages to the island and offer additional onboard benefits like discounted specialty dining and high-speed Wi-Fi.
