Review summary

Awesome cruise. Worth it to see 4 islands. We went 3 days before the cruise to see more of Oahu. We did a circle island tour, Polynesian Cultural Center and Pearl Harbor. I wish we would have done at least 1 more day to see more of Polynesian Cultural Center. One day was not enough. If/when we go back I would spend the extra days in Honolulu at the end of cruise instead of before.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We were in a suite so we didn't have to wait very long to check in or to get escorted onto the ship

We ate most of our meals in the Aloha Cafe. The food was pretty good for the most part. We loved the ice cream machine and the fruit was great.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our room steward was amazing. He did a great job keeping it cleaned and stocked with everything we needed. Our suite was a great size for the 3 of us. We had plenty of storage space. The pull out sofa was pretty hard but didn't sleep too bad. Our balcony was huge and great to watch the whales and islands go by.

Get a suite it is worth it.

Glad you enjoyed it. I see many complaints about this specific cruise and ship from people who expect the latest and greatest amenities on the ship and don’t realize this cruise is much more about the itinerary than it is the ship.
