My family and I cruised on the NCL Pride of America cruise Jan. 3 - 10 thru the islands of Hawaii. This was the first cruise for my wife and me.

We boarded the ship in the afternoon around 4pm and embarkation wasn't a problem at all. We reserved an ocean view suite and it was ready for us when we arrived (room 4598), we had 3 rooms all together for our party of 6 people. The room itself was small and the bathroom smaller but it was clean and sufficient for our needs. Throughout the week we had excellent cleaning service provided by Nora.

We tried some of the restaurants (Skyline - twice and Lazy J's) but mostly ate at the Aloha buffet. The food was ok, the Aloha buffet had a great selection of food for breakfast but there were only slight menu changes done for the dinner and lunch offerings. Lazy J's had decent steak and seafood, we ended up paying $30 per person which would have been a great deal if it was on it's own but the steak wasn't up to par with other mid-level steak places (like a Keg Restaurant).
