No longer sails past Na'Pali coast.

This cruise did not and does not sail past the Na'Pali coast. NCL does not make this widely known and most of their agents will tell you it still does. You are in port in Kauai until 5:30 pm. This was the only major disappointment, except for the NCL app, which was useless. I don't recommend even trying to use this, as you will most likely incur extra internet charges unless you are an IT ...

This was my first cruise with NCL. I was impressed. The highlight of the cruise was my daily interaction with the fantastic bar staff at the John Adams Bar. Cymone, Jennifer, Sam, et al could not have been friendlier. My buddy and I started every day at the JA Bar, and the service was consistently excellent. The dining options were very good as well. The buffets were stocked with a ...

My husband and I enjoyed our cruise on the Spirit. We embarked in Honolulu with minimum wait times. It was less than 30 minutes from the time we were dropped off at the dock until we were sitting on the ship. The Hawaiian islands were beautiful. We toured the Waikiki Aquarium and ate at Duke's the day before we got on the ship in Honolulu. We walked around town by the cruise port in Kauai and ...

After reading the bad reviews for this ship, I was very pleasantly surprised. Many of the reviews pointed out that there was a sewer smell. I have a sensitive nose and did not smell anything unpleasant, either in our cabin nor in any other part of the ship. Pride of America is a beautiful ship and is in wonderful shape. We had a balcony cabin on deck 7 and it was great. It was small, but certainly ...

We just completed a B2B Hawaii <-> Tahiti cruise, and everything was perfect! No kidding. The food was great, the specialty restaurants were outstanding, the entertainers were fantastic, our cabin was perfect, the itinerary was beautiful, and the Wi-Fi actually worked! We did not partake in any of the ship's excursions, but our own excursions on every island were fantastic. The islands are ...

We started early with a 3 night add-on from NCL in Honolulu. That was very economical and we saw a lot of things we wouldn’t have otherwise. It included going to the Polynesian Cultural Center, but it did not include staying there for the dinner and extremely excellent show, Ha: Breath Of Life. We bought tickets direct from PCC and they had a bus ride back to the hotel. You will want to this or ...

Overall my wife and I agreed overall cruise was excellent. The Entertainment really really made the cruise. The Sea Shakers, and Diego Bartolini - the one man band — were so exceptionally good and enjoyable night after night. Blazing Boots was great (hated Kinky Boots on a prior cruise). The Spirit is an older ship however recently went thru major renovations and they were top shelf. Without ...

We mainly choose this based on the itinerary. And we got a great price on it too. I had read that this was NCL's smallest ship and somewhat geared toward adults. We found that to be the case. The only time the kids were a problem (and it wasn't really a problem) was that the game room was about the only place for kid activities. So it was full of them on the sea days. The itinerary was great ...

We loved this cruise. This is the best way to get in as many islands as you can in one shot. The ship is on the smallish side, but that was fine for us. It's beautiful, well maintained and chock full of Americana. The food is cruise food, nothing stellar, nothing terrible. The ports are amazing and they give you the luxury of overnights in Maui and Kauai. Don't let the bad reviews dissuade ...
