This ship is very laid back. The focus is on the islands. I loved that it stayed for two days at two ports. This was a much different cruise than we have ever been on. Very laid back and no rowdiness aboard the ship. We felt the entire staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Our cabin steward was always quiet, and always had our room clean and tidy. We commend her for her extreme kindness and good job. We really enjoyed our time aboard the NCL/Pride of America. This was not the most luxury cruise like we have taken before, but was a very enjoyable cruise. The food was good, and as always plenty to choose from. The staff makes you feel at home on the ship and no matter what their job was they all seemed to smile and accommodate our needs. I would recommend this cruise for people that want to enjoy the islands in Hawaii.
