Los Angeles to Hawaii Cruise Reviews

I have been cruising with Carnival for the last 15 years and had good experiences with them up until 2024. We did the 15 day Hawaii cruise and were highly disappointed. Food and Service on the Carnival Miracle was subpar at best and the ship had many things out of service like ice makers throughout the ships drink stations. We noticed that there was far less crew in the MDR and at the bars. ...

We chose Viking based on cruise ratings and have sailed on over 30 ocean cruises. Our review benchmark used 2019 sailings on HAL and Regent. The Star passenger areas are in good shape for the ship's age. However the ship is small and suffers from excessive pitch and heave in the typical Pacific 6 to 9 foot swells as compared to larger ships such as the HAL Westerdam, which we took on a nearly ...

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 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 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 ...

Chose cruise for destinations and celebration of 50th our anniversary and a 75 birthday. Food very average. I compared it to a step up from the Golden corral. Formal night diner proportion and selection undesirable and embarrassing to us for the wait staff to serve it. Overall communication insufficient. No Port talks as to what to expect or what to do if not on an excursion. Pay as you go ...

The Crown Princess is an aging ship in need of some updating. Staterooms and public areas look past their prime. Some upholstery shabby, décor dated. Dining room menu seems to be in rotation every few days. Nothing of interest or originality. Poorly prepared at times and often smothered with some gravy or sauce seemingly meant to cover up what lies beneath. One of the more common offerings ...

Our party contracted the Nora virus and the Corona virus during the cruise, so we were only able to see one of the four ports in Hawaii. My son had to visit the medical center twice because of the outbreaks on the ship. There was a sewage line leak in our room that flooded most of the floor. There were also numerous sewage leaks in the hallway throughout the duration of the cruise. Sections of ...

We was subjected to 2 weeks of being constantly cold in all areas of this so called luxury ship The Food was a disgrace the food which was due to be hot was served just luke warm or cold as the ship was so cold the plastic plates were cold apart from the passengers wearing coats even the staff had to wear their windbreakers in the buffet after a few days all we could hear was people coughing and ...

We chose this as our bucket list cruise around the world. First the two items that were positive about this cruise: 1.The cabin stewards and the personnel in the Horizon Cafe were terrific when it came to service 2.The Horizon Cafe Buffet had a great selection of food which was well prepared and had a tremendous variety. Unfortunately those are the only god things I can report about this ...
