The ship was only at 60% capacity, which made it very comfortable for all onboard. Plenty of space for everyone. Food was great. Would recommend the wine tastings for the at sea days. The shows were very interesting. The excursions that we opted for were all great. The Tastes of Maui was awesome, there were about 7 stops. Food was provided at them all. Not large servings but enough so that you ...
I love the Pacific Ocean, the islands and the Pacific People. I like a lot of sea days as shore visits take a toll of my damaged feet. I'm a loyal Princess cruiser and also have been on the Coral Princess before and love the smaller ship with the amazing quirky decor.
In terms of the staff - they were all so lovely and friendly. I've added a photo to show that we are not the average couple, ...
I sailed on Pride of America on their September 16-23 of 2023 sailing and loved getting to see 4 islands and not having to unpack. This was my 10th cruise and first on Norwegian Cruise line. Will definitely sail with them again.
We were informed beforehand that they no longer sail around the Napali coastline due to fuel cost and we did a small airplane ride by air adventures in Kauai instead ...
What started on an innocent sunny day in August turned out to be an adventure we will always remember. Despite being impacted by (2) Hurricanes, the fires in Maui, and multiple medical emergencies, the Princess Staff and Officers rallied to help us all make the best experiences possible. The weather to Hawaii was hot and sunny, which was really nice. The last minute decision to reroute to Kona ...
It's been my dream to visit Hawaii. I've been bugging my husband for the past 20 years and it finally came into fruition. In as much as I didn't want to do a cruise, it was definitely the biggest bang for my buck -- plus the chance to visit several locations.
We arrive in Honolulu three days prior to joining the cruise. We stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn in Waikiki Beach. Great location - a ...
My wife and I have cruised to Hawaii four times but always in the fall or winter. We wanted to try a cruise to Hawaii in the summer. We booked a one-bedroom suite about a year before the cruise which was 16 night round-trip from Port of Los Angeles. We like round-trip from LA because it is about 45 minutes from our home. We have cruised Princess 11 times prior to this cruise and have always ...
I've been sailing for 22 years mostly on Carnival and Royal. The trip was outstanding in all categories from ship to cabin Stewart. Food was actually a little better than Royal and Carnival. Ship center was way to small, the Piaza. The excursion were very good and met our needs. It must be noted that there were many elderly and handy cap on this ship. Not many youth. At time the elderly had ...
This cruise was my first and purchased as a gift to me by my family.
5 of us onboard, we had an absolutely fantastic time!
The beverage package is a MUST and the Starbucks Package really helped!
The stateroom was great, the food and drinks also really good. The Specialty dining was worth it too!
The best way to travel is to book when NCL runs specials that includes food, some Specialty ...
We chose this cruise because they were one of only cruise line to go to Hawaii in June. We used Lorena Balderama at Vacations to Go to book the cruise. She was a great advocate ! NCL Pride of America is all American crew. They were very friendly and gave great service. The ship is well kept and the port itinerary including 3 days prior to sailing in Honolulu was a bonus. Weather was perfect - 70's ...
We are experienced cruisers. We chose this cruise because we wanted to see as much of Hawaii as possible. We thought that the 50th state would be the star and had read other reviews downplaying the ship and her crew and services, wow were they wrong. We found the ship to be in great shape, new carpeting , fresh paint, comfortable bedding, very strong shower. The food was all good. Not a ...
