Review summary
The NCL Pride of Hawaii's best aspect is actually it's itinerary. No other cruise line sails inter-island Hawaii only, and with so much to do in Hawaii, why go anywhere else! Hawaii is truly paradise. A trip here is one to be remembered forever, and will be hard to top. The Pride of Hawaii is new, and in that respect the rooms and facilities are nice and clean. I was pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of the staff, as I'd read many poor reviews before we sailed. There is little in the way of entertainment, but we did not mind as we spent very little time on the ship. The food quality, quantity and service was relatively poor. The crew in these areas seemed in general the most unpleasant. Communication on the ship could be better. Few announcements were made, and things we would have like to see were missed (whales playing in the water of the back of the ship). All in all, the ship was "good". If we had a choice of another line, we would probably choose it, but for us, this was really just an affordable, easy way to see 4 of the Hawaiian Islands in one trip, and that I would never pass up.Ports of call
Pros: The itinerary can't be beat.
Cons: The food service and quality leaves room for improvement
Recommends Pride of Hawaii? Yes!
