Ship experiences

Did not do the specialty dining rooms but the main dining rooms were excellent! Loved the Cadillac Diner 24 hour option too!

Onboard activities were more limited than other cruises I have taken but it was fine, we were there to see the islands.

The main stage shows were well done and entertaining

Children's Programs

Did not have children with us.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
I had read that the staff were rude compared to other ships, however, this was not my experience. Everyone that I came in contact with was helpful and friendly.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Loved the layout of the ship. Food was on one end and the main entertainment on the other. Simply and efficient to find both options.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Loved our cabin!

Ship tip

Stay on deck 11 as the many options are there including the pool. Consider the port side as it had a great view as you pass the coast in Kauai.
