The main negative is we bought the Have Iit All Package and their WIFI is AWFUL!!!!
You can not send or receive texts. You are logged out constantly and have to reboot your phone to sign in again. We sailed on Princess a month earlier and bought the same package and their WIFI works perfectly and you can send and receive texts. They also do not have laundry rooms and charge $25 for a very small bag of laundry.

We rented a car and drove around the island the first day. The second day we hiked up Diamond Head which was amazing but you need to book online prior to arriving then we took an Uber to Waikiki Beach
We did a Holland Tour to Fern Grotto boat tour and waterfall. When we got back we hired a taxi who took us to another waterfall, blow hole and beach where we saw Hawaiian Sea Turtle and Monk Seal. If I had it to do again I would have hired the taxi for the full day.
We rented a car and drove to the painted church, National Park, Coffee Plantation and through the mountains to the most Northern place then stopped at a State Park that was amazing.
We only stayed for 3 days wish we would have stayed longer. Biked around Stanley Park and took the False Creek Ferry and bought a day pass and exploded 6 stops. The second day we rented a car and drove up the very scenic Hwy 99 to Whistler mountain and took the gondola up the ski mountain which was gorgeous
