I sailed from Miami to the Dominican Republic on a three-day solo cruise in January.
My tiny inside cabin cost about $300 before taxes and fees, which was the cheapest option.

I went on my first solo cruise to the Caribbean in January, sailing on Norwegian Cruise Lines for three days from Miami to the Dominican Republic.

The one-way repositioning cruise on the Norwegian Sky, the company's second-oldest and second-smallest ship, only cost me about $300 for an inside cabin.
