We're quite a young couple for cruises (24 and 28), but when an opportunity comes to see the Caribbean, we just couldn't say no!
First of all, we were told there will be a balanced mix of passengers of different age. Well, yes, if you take the ages 50-80 ;). However, it completely doesn't matter, as we had the time of our life anyway! We are generally quite withdrawn, but the atmosphere on the Dream was so friendly that there was no way not to make some acquaintances. After all, cruises give a great opportunity to meet different people and hear their story.
As to the ship, it's fabulous. I saw some reviews complaining that this or that is dated, and yes, the bathrooms have probably seen 80's and I've never seen anybody actually catching a lift, but I loved it. It has this old elegant charm and elegance about that I wouldn't change for anything modern.
