Review summary
We absolutely loved this cruise. It is the 2nd time we've taken it, and hope to enjoy it again. The staff was excellent, competent, friendly, and many were downright fun, adding to our experience rather than just serving us. Just a few notes of things we missed:
*night cruise past Big Island's live volcano eruption
*anniversary cake (ordered, confirmed order, but no sight of it)(we saw other cabins leave their plate outside their doors so we know these were provided to others)
*available recipes for some of the soups (chilled soups were incredible, muselix cereal)
*seems like some of the announcements could have been grouped or shorter. We don't need to know about every event - that's what the newsletter is for!
Some of the things we loved:
*announcement about the Napali coastline
*welcoming registration process & entertainment (so organized, yet personalized)
*options for workout, walking on board
*daily newsletters and info
*water & washcloth returning from day trips to boat

Ship tip
Plan what you want to experience on each island based upon that certain island's own offerings. Plan downtime, too, to enjoy the local flavors!
