Additional details

Sail Date: Feb 2014

As background: We are married 60 and 40 years old, I am retired, my Wife still works, we live in NE Indiana and have a winter home in FL. We love to cruise and hope to do more once Brenda retires in hopefully 5 years. We chose the Dawn for the itinerary and that it departs from Tampa, FL which is only 2 hours from our winter home.

Pros:

We were upgraded to VIP status at the last minutes and thoroughly enjoyed the perks: breakfast (can you say steak and eggs every morning?) and lunch in Cagney’s, priority disembarkation both on port days (only used in Belize for the tender to shore, and also last day disembarking in Tampa.) We also enjoyed the snacks (chocolates and/or cheese and crackers) left in our room every afternoon. NCL also gave us one free dinner at La Cucina (Italian) that was excellent! If you can get a suite that gets you to VIP status, I would recommend, it will be difficult going back to non VIP status on future cruises.

Cabin Review

Cabin was small, or maybe we are larger than average, but we did ok without knocking each other down. Plenty of storage for the 2 of us, love the compartmentized bathroom, and the balcony!
