Review summary

This was my husbands first cruise & after this experience I highly doubt I will be able to talk him into going on another.

Embarkation

2 out of 5

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

We only experienced one good meal at Cagney's the entire trip. We also had to fight to be able to get ice. Seemed the machines were always out.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

They had a lot of activities but limited amount of space so we weren't able to do a lot of things by the time all the spaced were filled.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

The performers they had did a great job.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Staff was very friendly.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

The restrooms on the ship needed to be kept cleaner.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Of course the size is always an issue but for the most part it was well situated.

Ship tip

Do not ever book during hurricane season. The crew tried to make the best of a terrible situation but we paid a lot of money to be able to do this & see Hawaii but we were very disappointed we weren't able to & disappointed in the cruise line for not offering anything for the future.

Ports of call

Honolulu, Oahu

1 out of 5

Only got to port twice during the cruise due to hurricane. Took the Road to Hana & the stops were so limited we were having to try to get drive by photos. The ports we did have were in poor locations so you had to go miles to have anything to do. Nothing within walking distance of the ship.

Awe, he should not compare others to this one. Don’t know why but the ship is really dead at night. Seems like there is no entertainment. Try the Escape or Epic great entertainment love love them both.
