rsingleton Posted July 4, 2009 #1 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Hello all. I live equal distance between NYC and Boston. Was wondering which ship would be better for a Bermuda cruise. I'm especially interested in the children programs and activities between the two. My daughter is 9 years old and has been on Disney and Carnival and loved both of their kids clubs. Never been on NCL, so this will be our first time. Would appreciate your general opinions on which ship would be better for the overall cruise and which has a better kids programs. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingee Posted July 4, 2009 #2 Share Posted July 4, 2009 I can't say which would be better since I do not have little kids any more. I would think their activities would be the same since it is the same cruise line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimswims Posted July 4, 2009 #3 Share Posted July 4, 2009 I have been on both. I think that the kids programs are the same for each. However, the children's pool area for a 9 year old on the Spirit is far superior to the kid's pool area on the Dawn. My DD was 8 when we were on the Spirit and 9 when we were on the Dawn. She liked the Spirit better in terms of pool and Kids Crew. We are on the Spirit again this year but she is now 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silkhair1 Posted July 4, 2009 #4 Share Posted July 4, 2009 We have been on each ship. I can't remember the Dawn's kid pool (that must mean something), but my kids loved the pool area on the Spirit. They are now 6 and 8. Have you found pictures of each pool area. That may help you out too. Have your daughter pic from the pictures. I hope that helps.

ROGER CT Posted July 6, 2009 #5 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Have also done both (2 times) . Cant lose on this one , My kids loved both but the spirit edged out the dawn for the kids club . Dont really know why they just liked it better . We also got our cabin on deck 10 same floor as the kids club worked out great . :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsingleton Posted July 6, 2009 Author #6 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Thanks for the replies. Does NCL have freshwater pools or saltwater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
