Review summary

As usual, the Dawn had wonderful entertainment, great dining and dedicated staff. I made the mistake of going during Spring break, over half of the passengers were under 21 and a lot more were just a little over 21. Drinking was the only thing many were interested in and so their behavior was horrible. loud vulgar language and even some fighting. My mistake, I will check the calendar more carefully before going on any cruise from now on.

Ship tip

We like the size of the Dawn, not overwhelming and lots of dining choices. The entertainment is better than I have seen anywhere on any other ship.

I know NCL spent a lot building this perfect island but I actually preferred the real Belize, I probably will avoid this location on future cruises.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

3 out of 5
Again, the area of the docking is all very commercial, spend $3 to ride down to the beach for a more authentic Mexican beach location.
