Especially nice without the casino and the smoke it brings.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

We originally booked an inside cabin, but bid on an received a balcony. Balcony was especially nice at the Na Pali coast. Room was average, but balcony was great.

Ship tip

Port side is better for this cruise as you sail around Na Pali Coast. The day you tender, if you are Lattitude Platinum or above, you do not need a tender ticket. You can just get in line with your key card.

Ports of call

Honolulu, Oahu

3 out of 5

The island was great; however, we were disappointed in Pearl Harbor. The Arizonia Memorial was closed for the past year and we were not told in advance. Normally, they were taking boats around the memorial but it was too windy that day and we didn't even get to do that.

We took an independent tour through Air Ventures Hawaii - awesome! Would highly recommend their plane ride to see the Na Pali Coast. Great tour and wonderful people.

We booked a tour at Oahu and the tour met on the ship at a predetermined time and lead off quickly.
