Hawaii was wonderful; but the 5 days at sea were a little tricky.

Review summary

The cruise ports were great; would have loved it not being so many days at sea and more time at some of the ports. Also as shared above, we really should have had heat as the ship sailed on to Vancouver as it was much colder outside.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Again, Carnival is usually very good with their service but for this trip it was a bit average. folks not as friendly and not always working to solve your problem and/or meet your need.

Cabin / Stateroom

nice cabin. would have rated higher but during the sail from Hawaii to Vancouver the room got cold and Carnival did not work to get it warmed so we went 2 days freezing before they got someone to turn on our heat. not good!

Sea days are a given on Transpacific or Transatlantic. No ports in the middle of the oceans! We, too, love sea days to relax, and are looking forward to a Transatlantic next year. Nice change from our usual Caribbean or West coast. Maybe you should do a long Caribbean with a lot of island ports. Carnival has the most port-intensive itineraries of any line. Love those too!!

We love see days but it’s either your thing or not ? our cruise to Hawaii was great on the Legend I think maybe you need to do your research and make your choice as some cruises do have a lot but the sea days where worth the ports I think ? Good that you enjoyed it anyway Happy cruising guys
