Review summary

I chose the NCL Pride of America cruise because I wanted to visit the major Hawaiian Islands and did not want to spend 10 days at sea.  Overall, it was a very good experience.  The embarkation and disembarkation was very easy.  The cruise ship was recently refurbished it is clean but it is not elegant.  The passengers spend most of the days touring the ports so daytime onboard activities are sufficient but not extraordinary.  I really enjoyed the evening entertainment.  Especially the production shows.  The comedian, Michael Somerville was hilarious.  Beware, the Hollywood Theater is kept freezing cold for some reason or another.  People wore coats, jackets and some brought the blankets from the beds.  Unbelievable!!!

We loved having a refrigerator that was not filled to overflowing with mini bar items. Plus, we had a coffee maker and a daily supply of coffee and tea. That was a first on any cruise ship I have been on.

Ship tip

Freestyle Dining was quick and easy for two people. Service in the Skyline Restaurant was excellent. Service in the Buffet Restaurants was spotty at best and non existent on some occasions. Any inconvenience was worth it because the Islands were so beautiful and we could do it on a 7 day cruise.
