My husband and I just returned from our 7 day cruise in Hawaii. For anyone who is looking to visit multiple island, this is the way to go! I do not have anything to compare my experience to expect other reviews. I found that the embankment process was pretty smooth. There were enough POA reps to assist w/ questions. We were on the ship with in an hour of arriving to the port. We sat down at the bar for a few minutes before our state room was ready. Best tip the the week was from our Saturday Savior Aaron H who advised that there were more elevators in the front of the ship w/o waiting lines. We took off running and true to his word we were on desk 8 in not time. I had to find that angel to thank him! Our state room was adequate for the 2 of us.(rm 8686) Our bags arrived around 6pm. (pack a change of cloths or bathing suite in carry on if you want change right away) Our porter Mario, introduced himself shortly after as we were heading out to dinner the 1st night. The room was always clean and ready for us upon returning from being off the boat during the day and the bed was always turned down at night.

The food in the Aloha Cafe was OK. Buffet style. Nice to grab something and go. But the food could have been better there. Chelsey M was always happy and offering her service and good tips. 1st night there is a Welcome Party at the pool, w/ hamburgers and hot dogs being grilled. The activities staff are the hardest working group on the ship. These kids were up early in the am and kept the party going to late in the evening. I found my angel on the 2nd night there, bartending in the Mardi Gras lounge. I thanked him for the tip and he became one of favorites for the week. We ate in Cadillac Diner twice. Breakfast was good... wings were not to dye for as one review stated. Skyline Restaurant was good, portion size was nice, staff was friendly and attentive. Liberty Restaurant - after being seated hubby asked what I was thinking on ordering and I mentioned the Vt turkey dinner... he was confused and said that he didnt see that on his menu. Well he was right, we had 2 different menus. The one that we both wanted to order from was not the nights menu and we had to order somethings else. Very disappointed. Food was again good but not over the top.

East Meets West - again not much of a menu to choose from but the food was very good there. Service wonderful. Moderno Churrascaria - Brazilian-style steakhouse we have never dined this way so we gave it a shot... nice salad bar, meat was good but again not over the top. Key West Bar & Grill always had burgers and dogs grilling for a pool side snack. Entertainment was OK, but we were not there for the shows on the ship we came to explore Hawaii. Read more
