Review summary

We enjoyed this cruise! It’s hard not to compare to what newer ships offer. Dining was short staffed in many of the restaurants, two venues were closed and we were not able to experience Sushi or East meets West. I think the cruise cost is a little pricey for what the ship offers. But overall we enjoyed. Hawaii is just beautiful!

Loved our Aft Cabin views were amazing! We were able to tan from our balcony with 2 lounge chairs provided and also 2 regular chairs with small table. Bathroom was small, room typical size with sofa bed. Only downside was bar was above our room and we could hear chairs being moved in the evenings and mornings.

Ship tip

No frills kind of ship .. no activities like the newer ships but definitely great for quite and relaxing vacation! Amazing ports of call

The ship is a great way to see Hawaii. Post covid, it has been difficult for the Pride to stay fully staffed. Because they do not sail into a foreign port, they must have a mostly American crew.
