"And no one on the tender told us what was happening and never instructed us is to put on a life vest (even though the captain of the tender quickly put on his life vest frightening the passengers who were questioning what was going on.It was a big disappointment since most of us veterans only took this tour to see and go through the memorial and honor the deceased veterans...."Read More

1-10 of 145 Hawaii Emerald Princess Hawaii Cruise Reviews
What started on an innocent sunny day in August turned out to be an adventure we will always remember. Despite being impacted by (2) Hurricanes, the fires in Maui, and multiple medical emergencies, the Princess Staff and Officers rallied to help us all make the best experiences possible. The weather to Hawaii was hot and sunny, which was really nice. The last minute decision to reroute to Kona ...
My wife and I have cruised to Hawaii four times but always in the fall or winter. We wanted to try a cruise to Hawaii in the summer. We booked a one-bedroom suite about a year before the cruise which was 16 night round-trip from Port of Los Angeles. We like round-trip from LA because it is about 45 minutes from our home. We have cruised Princess 11 times prior to this cruise and have always ...
Ship was very nice. Food was a little over the top to fancy at some restaurants like chilled soup or very small portions at some of the restaurant. That being said, there was some restaurants that were very good a few healthy portions. I thought the activities that they provided on board were OK but some of the late night dancing and parties should’ve been held a little earlier for some of the ...
The timing was perfect with the 16th days cruise to Hawaii. Everyone was free to take a vacation. We've done 25 cruises and mostly on a Disney cruise, we do other cruise line as well like ROYAL and NORWEGIAN, CELEBRITY, CARNIVAL, etc. We never cruise less than 7 days. From our experience with other cruise lines most especially with DISNEY when doing more than 7 days, we expect cruise line to ...
I am a doctor and don’t get away but rarely. I chose a Hawaii 15 day cruise. I chose Princess because of a good experience it has been in the past.
Not this time. The ship is small and appears old compared to other princess ships. The dinner menu is horrible, and I am unimpressed with the menu selections nightly, every night I wait for better options. The choices are lousy. The food is cold. ...
We were so excited to take this cruise, I was looking forward to rest, relaxation and come back after 16 days rested. Well, that didn't happen! The beds are so uncomfortable we could only sleep a couple hours at a time, we didn't get a good nights rest the entire trip!!! After day 3 of sleep depravation, bags under my eyes, headaches and backaches that I finally asked if there was anything they ...
I've been sailing for 22 years mostly on Carnival and Royal. The trip was outstanding in all categories from ship to cabin Stewart. Food was actually a little better than Royal and Carnival. Ship center was way to small, the Piaza. The excursion were very good and met our needs. It must be noted that there were many elderly and handy cap on this ship. Not many youth. At time the elderly had ...
We have sailed on princess before and never had a problem. This was the worst cruise ever! The food was awful and the entertainment consisted of B rated movies that came out at least 10 years ago. No live dance shows. The staff was great but everting else was awful. We went to settle our bill, we spent around $600 for their "classic drink package" which we were hassled about all the time. I had ...
We chose this cruise because it was round trip from San Pedro, Ca - we did not have to fly to board the ship. Easy embarkation and debarkation.
The most positive experience of/on this cruise were the terrific crew members. They were all extremely friendly, helpful, and smiling all the time. They made you feel very welcome.
We were in a Club Class Mini Suite, Dolphin Deck. Our steward, ...
Let me say that this was not what I expected after all the money I spent to have a relaxing time. First, let me say that there should be a disclaimer to let people know that this line caters to senior citizens. I’m not knocking the elderly at all but less then 5% of the guest on this ship was under 50 years of age. For me and my opinion it was a nursing home at sea. Let me put it this way, the ...
