First time on NCL. Chose this cruise to be able to see several islands without having to fly between. This ship is basically a floating hotel as you are in port everyday. Most ports are commercial areas. Since this ship is in Hawaii all of the time, there is no casino on board and bingo is played for gifts, not money. Food was fine. The buffet offers some of the same items day in and day out and it was nothing to be excited about. We tried Moderno and La Cucina. Moderno was our favorite. We stayed with the NCL excursions and though they were a bit more than the private excursions we were pleased with all of them. It made it easier to pay at once and when we had to cancel one trip, it was easy to do and our cruise card was credited immediately. Our favorite tour was the Grand Island Circle the day we returned to Honolulu. Great way to spend time before leaving Hawaii.

We did see a few of the evening shows and took part in lei making and origami classes during the day.

Not sure if we will go again, as we have many other places we want to visit.
