Inside Our Haven Penthouse on Norwegian Bliss! Hidden Perks, Big Balcony & More in Cabin #17720✨🚢
We just stepped into a Haven suite, and this space feels private and well planned from the start. As we walk in, we notice simple controls, smart storage near the door, and a calm layout that sets the tone for the stay.
This article shares what stands out as we explore the suite together. We focus on how the room works, what comes included, and how the details shape our first impression.
Key Takeaways
- The arrival feels smooth and private from the moment we enter.
- The suite blends comfort, storage, and useful amenities.
- Small details add convenience to daily life on board.
Arrival and Private Haven Greeting
Private Screening Entry
We bypassed the main line as soon as staff saw we were Haven guests. They directed us to a small, separate screening area with a Haven sign. The process moved fast and felt calm.
| Step | What Happened |
|---|---|
| Arrival | Staff flagged us as Haven guests |
| Screening | We used a private security spot |
| Access | We skipped the public line |
Guided Path to the Ship
A crew member met us right away and walked us through every checkpoint. They handed us our special key cards and stayed with us the whole time. From line to room, it took about 15 minutes.
- We did not stop at regular queues
- We went straight to muster check-in
- We used a private elevator
Restricted Suite Area Access
Our key cards unlocked areas only Haven guests can enter. The elevator took us to a secured suite section with a locked entry. Staff let us know the bars and restaurant were open, then wished us a great trip.
Suite Entry and Initial Features
Access Card and Climate Controls
We place a key card in the slot by the door to turn on the lights and air. We noticed the system stops when the card comes out, so we plan to keep a spare card handy.
A small panel near the entry lets us adjust the room temperature right away.
Bell Alerts and Quiet Options
The doorbell sits right at the entry, so we hear visitors as soon as they arrive. We also have buttons for do not disturb and a makeup room request, which we can switch on with one touch.
These controls help us manage privacy without opening the door.
Grab-and-Go Storage Near the Door
Right inside, fold-out wall hooks give us a place to hang bags or light items. They tuck away flat when we do not need them.
A compact shelf by the door holds things we want to grab on the way out, like sunglasses or small personal items.
Kitchenette and Complimentary Amenities
We turn the corner and step into our small kitchen area. Everything sits close together, but it feels well planned and easy to use.
### Coffee Maker and Drink Basics
We have a Nespresso-style espresso machine with pods ready to use. Tea, sweeteners, cups, and glasses sit nearby, so we can make drinks right away. The espresso comes at no charge, which we plan to use.
What’s set out for us:
- Espresso pods
- Tea options
- Sugar and sweeteners
- Cups and glassware
### Ice Bucket and Sparkling Wine
An ice bucket already comes filled when we arrive. We also see a bottle of complimentary sparkling wine placed next to the ice. It feels nice not having to ask for these basics.
### Small Refrigerator and Drinks
A compact fridge sits under the counter. It currently holds bottled water.
| Item | Included |
|---|---|
| Still water | Yes |
| Sparkling water | No, costs extra |
Some drinks show a charge, which surprises us a bit. We’re still learning what’s included and what isn’t.
### Discreet Trash Bin
The trash can hides inside the cabinetry, so it stays out of sight. It blends in so well that we almost miss it at first, but it’s easy to reach once we spot it.
Living Space and Entertainment
Artwork and Visual Accents
We noticed framed art pieces placed around the room, including a display tied to Park West. The artwork sits near the television and shelving, so it stays visible without crowding the space.
Chairs and Lounge Setup
We have two padded chairs that feel comfortable for sitting and relaxing. A small table sits between them, which works well for drinks or light meals.
Butler Help and In‑Room Service
We can call our butler using the phone in the room. The suite includes 24-hour butler support, and we can order meals to the room beyond standard room service.
- Butler can bring full meals
- Meals can be served with proper table settings
- Orders come directly to the suite
Dining Table Inside the Suite
We have a dedicated table set with plates, silverware, and glasses. If we choose, the butler can set up a white tablecloth meal right at this table for a full dining experience in the room.
Bedroom Comforts and Features
Bed Size and Feel
The bed looks very large, close to what we sleep on at home. It feels very soft and plush when we sit or lie down. We noticed it right away because it looks inviting and comfortable.
Nightstands and Light Settings
We have nightstands on both sides of the bed, but they are not the same size. One side includes most of the lighting controls and a reading lamp. The other side has a large phone, which takes up a lot of space.
Lighting notes:
- Reading lamp near the bed
- Main light controls grouped on one side
- Easy to reach while lying down
Power Plugs and USB Access
Only one side of the bed has power outlets. That side also has counter space for a phone, CPAP, or other items. The other side does not have a standard outlet, but it does include a USB port under the lamp.
| Bed Side | Outlet | USB Port | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Left side | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | More counter space |
| Right side | ❌ No | ✅ Yes | Large phone takes space |
Wardrobe and Storage Solutions
Closet Layout and Hanging Options
We step into a separate wardrobe area with a lot of hanging space. The closet includes many sturdy hangers, plus a short bar meant for ties.
There are also fold-down wall hooks near the entry. We use them for bags or items we want off the floor.
Comfort Items and Weather Gear
We find soft robes that feel thick and padded. The closet also includes slippers ready to use.
An umbrella sits on an upper shelf. We like having it there in case of rain.
Secure Storage and Built-In Shelving
On one side of the wardrobe, we see a safe, open shelves, towels, and drawers. The drawers are shallow, which works well for socks or small items.
Storage features we use:
- Shelves for folded clothes
- A safe for valuables
- Small drawers for basics
- Upper shelf for extra items
Bathroom and Vanity Highlights
Dual Sinks and Handy Storage
We have two sinks, which makes getting ready faster for both of us. Open shelves hold small towels and washcloths, and drawers push open with a light touch. Towel racks sit right behind us, so grabbing one feels easy.
High-End Bath Items
The shower includes separate shampoo, conditioner, and body wash from a French brand. We also found a shower puff, a shower cap, tissues, and a small trash bin. Cotton balls and cotton swabs sit ready at the vanity.
Shower and Tub Setup
The shower sits behind a door and feels simple and clean. The tub is a standard soaking tub, not jetted. A small shelf inside the shower gives us space for personal items.
Vanity, Mirrors, and Daily Essentials
A large mirror includes a built-in magnifying mirror with its own light. A small stool lets us sit while using the vanity. The hair dryer stays mounted in place, and a phone sits nearby, which we think connects to our butler.
Private Balcony Experience
Balcony Space and Furniture
- Our suite includes a large private balcony as part of this penthouse category.
- We did not walk outside during this part, so we did not show the layout or any seating.
Privacy and Light Control
- The balcony belongs only to our suite, not a shared space.
- We did not cover shade, cover, or sun exposure at this point.
View and Placement
- This balcony comes with a penthouse Haven suite.
- We did not discuss the direction, scenery, or deck position here.
Distinct Features and Closing Notes
Always-On Butler Support
We noticed a dedicated phone in the suite, and we believe it connects us to our butler at any time. Haven guests also move through private check-in, security, and elevators, which saved us a lot of time. Staff escorted us straight to the suite, and the whole process took about 15 minutes.
Smart Controls and In-Room Ease
We control the temperature, lights, and privacy settings right at the door. A key card powers the room, so keeping an extra card helps. The suite includes outlets, reading lights, a USB port, and bedside space for phones or medical devices, though plugs only sit on one side of the bed.
| Feature | Notes |
|---|---|
| Door controls | Temperature, doorbell, privacy buttons |
| Beverage setup | Espresso machine, pods, tea, glassware |
| Storage | Pop-out hooks, entry shelves, wardrobe room |
How the Suite Feels to Us
The bed feels large and very soft, and the chairs look comfortable for meals in the room. The bathroom offers a double sink, regular tub, separate shower products, and a vanity area with a stool and mirror. Space feels modest for a penthouse, but the service and access stand out more than the room size.
