Review summary

The nice surprise was that they had Hawaiian ambassadors and a naturalist on board that were very nice and informative.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
We had a 12:00 appointment to board we stood outside in the sun for 2 1/2 hours to get inside the building. When we first got there we were told to get in this one line which we did about 15 mins. later another person came up and told us that we had to move to another line about an 1 1/2 hours later several people were placed in the spot that we had in the other line when I asked the person that made us move about it she said that she was over ruled by the supervisor then about 15 mins later she came back and said that she would move us over to the other line since they were going in, but she said it where everyone in our line could hear it I said no because I was not going to get all of them mad. When we finally got inside the building all of the people at the desk checking people left their desk for 20 mins before we could check-in.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
It was had to enjoy time at the pool because the DJ kept playing the music way too loud and he would not turn it down when he was asked

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The cruise staff was weak The best parts were the singer Alex Youst and comedian Lance Montalto.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
It would have been a 5 but the dinning room staff that we were first assigned to was horrible my wife and myself were the only ones at our table and we would be the first into their section at night we would place our order and we would would be the last to get our food and it would be cold after 4 nights we went to the maitr'e d and asked to be moved which he did and the wait staff from then on was ezcellent.

We are heading out in 3 weeks on the Miracle to Hawaii. What caused the 21/2 hr delay? Have cruised from Long Beach a few times and never had a delay, be it before covid.
