I booked this cruise because it's the only way, on a ship, to go to so much of Hawaii. We booked it and then I did not read a review until a month out. I WAS NERVOUS. Man, almost every review was negative. I told my family....we are going to Hawaii, not going to be on the boat much. Just have fun and be open minded.
This ship and its crew were awesome. Yes, the ship doesn't have slides, casino, go carts, laser tag etc...but you are on an island every day. You spend such little time on the ship that those things are not really missed.
The food was awesome. The staff was friendly and accomodating (no issues at all). The cruise director, Jaime was incredible and as personable at the guest level of any I have seen. She is going to be a star in this industry.
