We read all the mixed reviews on this site and decided it was still the best and cheapest way for first timers to see Hawaii. We celebrated our 25th anniversary on this cruise the week of 9/28 - 10/5.
We arrived for embarkation at noon and boarded in about 15 minutes. Our bags came to our room one at time and didnt finish until 4:45 pm.
The wait stafff was lackluster and at times slow. Not horrible, but not great like on other cruises. Our cabin steward was fine.
