Dawn suite perks ??

[barric]

We got a good price for a Family Suite without balcony, on Dawn.  Never sailed on this class of NCL shlp before and am not familiar with its perks.

I see that Dawn does not have the Haven.  So does that mean no dinner restaurant for us?  I believe we get the specialty restaurants for breakfast and lunch.

 

I am considering upgrade bidding to other suites.  Advice can sure help me with decisions.

Our SP suite is quite large, over 400 sq ft. The  SN AFT suite with balcony lists Total Size approx 360 and the balcony is about 70.  Does the 360 include the 70?

If so then the Aft suite itself is under 300.  Much smaller than our current room.

 

Also, I assume there is not much extra  in the way of perks for better suites, other than size and furnishings ????

We sailed in a 2 Br in August in the Baltics.   The 2 bedrooms  still have the jacuzzi tub over looking the water. These are on deck 11.
You can call the Pre concierge before you leave home to give them pillow preferences, snack preferences, etc. 
Breakfast and lunch in Modernos.
Daily snacks in the room

Nespresso Machine in room 

Priority check in desk, concierge  (Bruno)  met us at embarkation, went over perks, then had us escorted on board to Cagney’s for lunch.

Butler will deliver room service from regular dinning room menu. 
upgraded  bath products. 

 

First off ship in every port even if not booked on a NCL excursion.  Priority tender escort. 
 

The 2 br is our favorite.  We have also sailed on the Star, actually the same cabin.  

Both cruises were for the itinerary, which the smaller ships often offer. 

That is what I remember for now.

Better perks can be found in the Owners Suites, Deluxe Owners Suites, and Garden Villa.

 

If balconies are not important to you, check out the forward-facing Deluxe Owner Suites. We sailed in one a few years ago and it was less expensive than a 2-bedroom suite. With the higher-end suites, the additional perks include three (I think more for the Garden Villa) bottles of alcohol/wine and mixers for your drinks in your cabin -- so free cans of soda. I believe you also get reserved seating with the higher suites, but we actually preferred the regular seating in the theater.

 

The DOS without balconies have two different layouts -- two are 2-bedroom and two are not. We needed a 2-bedroom suite. The views were great and we'd consider that cabin again.

Ah that right about the bottles of liquor.  The reserved seating is in the  balcony, one to all suites and is great, forgot about that as well.  I think it was the port side as the ship was only 1/3 full. 
 

We’ve also sailed in 9232, one of the aft suites with the wrap around balcony on the Star(sister ship) and enjoyed that cabin as well.  The cabin is about 360 sq feet and the balcony is an additional 70.  It’s a lovely cabin. 
 

I haven’t sailed in the foreword facing window suites on NCL but recently did on Princess. The views were amazing. I am sure the same is true for the NCL Dawn as @brookie848 reports.  Views were awesome when the Spinnaker lounge was there instead of the suites. 
 

Enjoy

as the dawn offers no haven, the "suites" get all the perks that you would normally receive , butler, concierge breakfast/lunch in cagney's and moderno. your only drawback is no balcony. (personally, i cant live without one) but to each his own.
