We wanted to cruise to and around Hawaii, but we didn't want to spend extra time in the air getting there. The embarkation was good, the disembarkation was a nightmare, so I averaged them and still came up with a "terrible" rating.
The ship's crew was VERY CONSCIENTIOUS about cleanliness, having a hand sanitizer machine to use in exchange for the hostess handing you a plate! The number of passengers with colds was staggering and since so many passengers were elderly, I was glad they were so diligent. The passengers were much older than what we are used to. On Carnival cruises, we were some of the oldest passengers. On this Princess cruise, we were some of the youngest, being in our early 60's.
Food is one of the most important aspects to us on all cruises. The food was good, but we weren't crazy about the head chef's "international flare". The late-night ice cream and pizza closed at 10:00 pm. It's just as well, the pizza wasn't that good anyway (wasn't as good as Carnival's).
Nice for an interior cabin.
Typical beach experience, beautiful waters.
