We chose this cruise because we wanted to have a week in Waikiki and then cruise back to Sydney. We were given permission to board in Honolulu and had the best smooth seas all the way except for the Tasman Sea. Everyone was friendly the only member of staff I would have a whinge about was the Crown and Anchor lady,she was very abrupt with me but the people at Customer relations were wonderful Our Cabin Steward Nino was marvellous and our wait staff at dinner Flicson and Ngaruh excellent!!

As we were on deck 10 the deck above was where the pool was situated and the cabin creaked all night probably because of the movement of water in pool moving. I would prefer a cabin on deck 9 next time we cruise.

I do believe that the excursions RCI offer are far too expensive and the internet as well. We organised our own excursions and they we excellent.
