Overview -- This was our 4th cruise and since we choose our cruises based on the itinerary, we just couldn't pass on this one. As soon as I heard about this inter island Hawaii itinerary I told my husband I had to go on it. Before booking this cruise I had read horrible reviews of this ship on cruisecritic.com so I was well aware that there would likely be some shortcomings compared to our last cruise 3 years ago on the Celebrity Infinity. Despite 4 days of rain, the beauty of the destination and great itinerary made up for all the shortcomings of the ship and service.

Embarkation -- A breeze. Just make sure you go in the late afternoon. Most of the other passengers we talked to flew in a day or 2 before the embarkation date. Take the morning to sightsee in Honolulu -- there's so much to see and do. We were lucky to have 3 days in Honolulu after the cruise, and we felt it still wasn't enough to see everything in Oahu.

Cabin -- 8106 Inside Forward. There were no outside cabins available when we booked. The cabins are the smallest of any of our cruises, but the location was convenient and quiet. The decor is not to my taste, but was bright and cheerful. The bed was firmer than we would have liked. I really liked having the small fridge in the cabin. We ended up buying Coke, water and orange juice (yeah we didn't like the OJ on board and bought Tropicana) at the Wal-Mart in port and stashing it in our fridge.
