Ahoy cruisers, welcome aboard the recently refurbished Norwegian Jade.
Let’s start in the Maltings Whisky Bar.
Just next to that is the Mixers Cocktail and Martini Bar.
Heading down the ship we arrive at the Jade Club Casino…
…which has stuck to its original theme with the lanterns on the roof.
There are plenty of machines and games so you will not get bored.
Right next-door is the Stardust theatre.
I love this Vancian inspired hallway.
There is ample seating in the theatre and it has tiered seating all around.
Let’s follow David up a few flights of the newly decorated hallways.
The Bliss lounge has had a big transformation with new modern décor.
Here you can dance the night away.
Next up we have three Asian inspired venues.
Sake, Jasmine and the Sushi Bar.
Jasmine is a complementary Asian fusion restaurant.
And next door is Teppanyaki. The speciality Japanese restaurant
where the chefs put on a fun show and cook right at your table.
Looking down now to the Magnum Champagne Bar.
Right ahead is the cigar lounge…
…and next to that is Le Bistro – the speciality French restaurant on-board.
Oh, la la! Veuve Clicquot is on tap in this beautifully decorated, elaborate restaurant.
It centennially has a certain “je ne sais quoi”.
“Ah Oui… arc de triomphe… au revoir….”
Okay now you can see the new carpeting and new décor in the hallways
It looks very fresh and modern
This brings us to two of the speciality restaurants.
Moderno and Cagney’s.
Cagney’s is an American steak speciality restaurant.
Here you can enjoy dinner for two in front of your own fireplace.
This is Moderno Charrascaria – The Brazilian Restaurant.
It has great panoramic windows all around the restaurant.
Now we are heading down to one of the main dining rooms… The Grand Pacific.
And indeed "grand" it is. It’s very lavish and beautifully decorated here.
Okay our favourite part of any cruise ship is the buffet.
And on the Norwegian Jade, it’s the Garden Café.
Here you can find a selection of… well… just about anything.
Next up… O’sheehan’s Bar and Grill.
This is a new addition to the Jade.
O’sheehan’s serves some great pub food all complementary.
And it looks down on the atrium including the atrium bar and café.
So, this is my Titanic moment.
Where is Leonardo Dicaprio?
Coming up on your left is Tides Shipping.
And ahead is the restaurant reservations desk, guest services and shore excursions desk.
Yes... that really is real marble.
The atrium is a casual space with music throughout the day.
Next up we have the photo gallery.
Which has had a complete overhaul with digital screens.
Here you can “Snap Up” all you “Snaps” … Get it?
… No
And right though is the Art Gallery and Internet Café.
Now let’s look at the Spinnaker Lounge. Which has also had a great refresh.
There are some rally comfortable seats where you can sit back and relax.
Enjoy the entertainment with a nice drink.
I will have a martini please… shaken not stared.
And if you are planning on getting hitched. There is also a chapel on-board.
And a place we don’t see often… the fitness centre.
Go on and treat yourself at the Mandara Spa and Salon.
And a place to pick up a book or just a quiet space to read is the Library.
Oooh… Stephen King.
Let start the cabin tours.
First an inside stateroom.
Which you can see has had a few updates with a new television.
Next, look at an ocean view stateroom.
And another ocean view stateroom.
This is the standard bathroom for ocean view, inside and balcony staterooms.
Next is a balcony stateroom.
And here is a mini-suite balcony stateroom.
Which is larger than a standard stateroom with a larger seating area.
The bathroom is also bigger enjoying a bath tub.
Next is the big boy of staterooms.
This is the three-bedroom garden villa.
This is just the entrance. Its bigger than an inside cabin!
I can see myself twinkling away on the ivories.
… You are always twinkling away.
And look at that view, these mirrored windows allow you to see outside.
But no one can see you inside.
You also have your own private courtyard area with a hot tub.
This area is massive and spans over two whole decks.
This is the master bathroom that I think is bigger than my first flat.
The master bedroom is just as beautiful with plenty of room…
…. and panoramic views all around.
The other bedrooms are just as grand and just as comfortable.
All with their own en suite bathrooms.
Wow! This is your own personal staircase up to the
Haven Owners Suite.
This suite sleeps 4 and has some great panoramic views.
As well as two balconies’.
And a large bathroom where you can take a bath with a view of the ocean.
Next is the Haven Courtyard which is exclusive to guests staying in Haven Suites.
The Haven Courtyard has a retractable roof so
you can enjoy these facilities whatever the weather.
This is the Haven sundeck which is exclusive to Haven guests.
Now let’s look at the main pool area.
Here you find 2 large pools and 4 hot tubs.
Here is the Pit Stop bar.
There is so much room so you can sit back and relax.
Or grab a bite to eat.
And you can grab a bite from the Topsider’s Bar and Grill.
Are you feeling healthy?
… No I will just grab a burger and a cake please.
