Review summary

Being our first cruise, I don't have much to compare to, but the Norwegian Dawn far exceeded our expectations.  Our cruise was 7 nights in the Western Caribbean.  Freestyle dining suited us very well, matching our daily lifestyle.  The dining options were plentiful, we favored and frequented the Venetian restaurant.  Onboard entertainment was top notch, the quality easily exceeding shows we've attended at theme parks such as Disney or Six Flags.  The magic show was Vegas quality, the comedy topped SNL, the singing and dancing was incredible.  We chose this as our first cruise lacking bias, primarily basing our choice on price and calendar dates.  We will look first to Norwegian when we plan another cruise.

we have been on 2 Norwegian cruises so far as we are new to cruising. we loved the Sun for being a smaller ship it was so relaxing and the Dawn bigger but just as nice, we loved Freestyle. We are trying another line Celebrity Reflection to see how they compare as they are starting a more informal dining choice. we did a tour in every port on the Sun but only 1 on the Dawn and found that was best for us.
