Has anyone been on the Norweigan ship--Dreamward. I was thinking of
booking a cruise on that boat. The pictures look great, but I wanted
some first hand knowledge. How big is it anyway?

My boyfriend and I are booked on a cruise to Bermuda Oct 7th on the
Dreamward. I have not yet seen the ship up close and personal, but my
travel agent gave me a promotional video that she had. We are psyched.

| 530.2 | We saw it last week! | POWDML::WALKER | Mon Jul 10 1995 13:29 | 8 | |
We just got back from Bermuda via the Royal Majesty and we saw the
Dreamward in port in Hamilton. It is BIG. We were out on a sailboat
sailing when the Dreamward was leaving Bermuda, we watched it go through
the "cut" and got to bob around in it's wake. If it is anything like
the RM you will have a great time!

We went on the Royal Majesty and loved, we had planned on going back on
the same ship but the travel agent talked us into experiencing other
lines.....

| 530.4 | DREAMWARD is awesome! | XLIB::PARKER | Digital's Partner Network | Tue Jul 11 1995 14:14 | 24 |
I sailed on the DREAMWARD last year in May, NY to Bermuda. It is an awesome ship. It's only about 2 years old, so hopefully by now it still seems new. It was my first cruise, so the ship did seem huge to me, but I'm told that it is considered a medium sized ship (we were dwarfed by the Song of Norway in port in Hamilton). Nevertheless, it never seemed crowded , although we sailed full. The cabins are large by ship standards, and are very well appointed. Color TV and phone in each room, small sitting area. I was even impressed with the bathroom. The rest of the ship is just beautiful... great pools (2), jacuzzi's, bars, and lots of great shopping on board. The food was wonderful, and you could eat breakfast and lunch in any restaurant you wanted. Dinner, of course, is assigned seating. You can make use of the gym, beauty salon....so much to do, so little time! I'm sailing on the sister ship, the WINDWARD, next May, to Alaska. I can't wait!! Enjoy your trip! Joan | |||||
| 530.5 | Will book Dreamward AGAIN | GRANPA::DABROWN | Wed Jul 12 1995 12:51 | 10 | |
Lot's of fun on this ship! Sailed to Bermuda July '93 with our two
teenagers. All had a good time! Husband enjoyed playing golf in
Bermuda with the NFL players on board. Our cabins were spacious
compared to other ships we had been on previously. We signed up for a
3 day Snorkeling program with the Diving Crew. Visited off shore
wrecks with knowledgeable divers/Historic Homes Tour/Steel Drum show
trips arranged by the ship = highly recommend. At the end of our
weeklong cruise, all family members were still laughing and talking to
one another - surely a sign of a successful trip!!! We are looking
into going on the Dreamward again.
