Sail date: December 16, 2018

Ship: Norwegian Dawn

Review summary

I picked the cheapest cabin so I had no extras (free at seas). You have to be careful if you do this because it is easy to get nickeled and dimed.

cabin was fine except that it was right under a restaurant..I had to take a pill to sleep..at midnight you could hear the tables and chairs being dragged across the floor

Ship tip

just make sure your cabin is not underneath a restaurant

I really enjoyed harrisons cave and carlisle bay

Castries, St. Lucia

2 out of 5
so much poverty seen on excursion- I did not feel safe enough to roam the city and i was depressed from the poverty the island faces from the high unemployment to the high crime

St. John's, Antigua

3 out of 5
nice beach but the water was freezing

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

4 out of 5
beautiful place - you must visit mountain top

Tortola, British Virgin Islands

3 out of 5
I felt so sad about the amount of hurricane damage still around..people were very nice and it is pretty

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
I was encouraged to disembark early since I did a self disembarkation..I had to wait a while for my van to show up booked through the cruise line to get to the airport

The moral of the review is you get what you paid for. The cheapest cabins are in the worst places, and without perks(You pay for perks in cabin prices) you need to purchase anything extra. If you cruise again try picking your cabin when you book and compare all the costs, most importantly enjoy your cruise
