Have zero expectations from your wait staff, most are Americans with too much sense of entitlement and no sense or recognition of customer service

Cagney's Steakhouse was our choice of restaurants on deck 6. It was quiet and casually elegant. Staff was great & food excellent.

Don't expect much time on the ship if you are planning to see all the islands. This is a much smaller cruise ship by comparison to many of the newer ships so the public areas are not as upscale as other ships.

Adult hot tub starboard aft deck 12 is open almost 24 hours. Great place to start the day when east coasters wake at 5 am local time.

Plan some days on shore after sailing to decompress if you scheduled daily excursions. It will wear you out.

Be more upfront with excursion changes. Improve service in Sky

Take a balcony cabin with unobstructed view. We enjoyed it.

Our room was quiet and nicely located to get to either end of the ship. Book on the 8th so that there are no common spaces above or below you. Don't worry about reservations for the dining rooms. There were always tables in Liberty and Skylight. Might be tighter in East Meets West.

If you are not sure what to do, go to the Concierge desk. They are full of ideas based on your family's interests. Also, don't be afraid to rent a car and explore. Most islands have very few major roads. You can't get lost.

Make your reservations for specialty dining ahead!!! The spots went quick. We waited and missed out. The sushi place was our favorite

If you love to cruise Hawaiian islands and want to avoid many sea days, NCL is your ticket. If service and pampering are high priorities, try Celebrity destinations.

Stay in a balcony room but avoid the obstructed view. Plan to eat in the Liberty Restaurant for the best food and service so ladies bring enough dresses, gentlemen need collared shirts.

The pool deck area is very crowded. If not going ashore for the day use those hours to get to use that area. One day when we got back early from a shore excursion was the only time we used the SPAs around the pool.

We ate breakfast several mornings in Skyline. Being waited on rather than Self service buffet was a great way to start the day!

We really liked going to the 7:00 shows and dining after, never had to wait for a table and since we not with a group it was nice to have tables for 2.

Loved eating in the Legends dinning room. Sharing a table and meeting new friends is a lot of fun but expect to spend 90+ minutes during the experience.

We loved the legends dining room and we were always seated promptly without reservations.
