Review summary

We had a great time on the Dawn from April 1 - April 8. There were a few hiccups along the way, but that’s life. We decided we were going to make the best of it no matter what happened. The only major complaint we had was the layout of the ship, it was quite confusing. We stayed in an ocean view cabin, 5556. It was nice and spacious enough for two. We did have a plumbing issue that flooded part of our cabin, but guest services sent someone to fix the issue and offered to do our laundry for the remaining duration of the cruise as well as sent a bottle of wine and chocolate covered strawberries. The food was great. We dinned at the speciality restaurants 6/7 nights, and was quite pleased with the food at the Aqua restaurant. We must recommend Los Lobos, shoutout to Cheryl, and Carney’s. The waitstaff and bar staff were great. We hardly saw our steward, which was okay as he was not as friendly as other stewards we’ve had in the past. I’m sure he was just busy, overworked and overwhelmed. Nonetheless he did a good job keeping our room nice and tidy. We did purchase the thermal spa package, which was great. Though it wasn’t as nice as the thermal spa on the Escape, which had us spoiled, NCL did a good job of remodeling it. We would highly recommend the Dawn for those who love a smaller ship where you can mix and mingle with the same people every night and enjoy low key evenings. We learned we actually prefer the larger ships as they offer more to do.
