The ship was fine. Plenty of choice of good food. Lots of nice bars with great staff. The only issue we had was that although we were in Hawaii, the AC in public areas(bars etc) was so cold we had to wear jackets/coats indoors.

The only real downside was the air conditioning being rather intense......indoor areas in the evening rather chilly.....we actually put some heating on in our cabin before getting changed!! Very warm apart from that.

Pride of America is an older ship (launched 2005) and the cabins are a bit dated. The shower in our balcony cabin was quite small and care was needed not to get the whole bathroom floor wet! The crew were excellent and service very good throughout. A few of the bars and restaurants have not reopened after covid so eating options were limited. East Meets West, Moderna and one of the main dining rooms were all closed on our cruise in November 2022. The cruise itself was good and it was good to see the other main Hawaiian islands. We felt that the excursions were expensive but well run. The port in Maui where the ship overnights is in a container port and there is not much within walking distance. An irritation is that even with the drinks package you have to sign for all drinks. This is due to a local USA tax which is added to every bill and which is not covered by the package. It’s a very small amount so no major issue. Overall we enjoyed the Pride of America and the taste of the Hawaiian islands has certainly made us want to return one day.

Hawaii for us was a once in a lifetime experience. The Pride Of America is one of the older and smaller ships in the NCL fleet but most of our time was spent exploring the islands. The ship was running at under 50% capacity so the ship experience was different from other NCL cruises I have been on as there was less variety of entertainment onboard but overall still a great experience.

A great cruise around the Hawaiian Islands on this excellent ship. Service was courteous and friendly. Food in the speciality and included restaurants was very good too. There is a huge choice ranging from Italian and Steak restaurants through to Teppanyaki and Brazilian. The ship stops at Kaua’i and Maui. Usually it would also make stops stops on the Big Island at both Hilo and Kona. Sadly Hurrucane Lane made these two parts of the itinerary out of reach. The cruise ran to 8 nights instead of 7 as we avoided the storm by heading away from Hawaii. As a result, we completely missed the bad weather. The captain and crew had our safety as their highest priority and the extra day on board, whilst unexpected, was a delight. A highly recommended ship and itinerary with a range of good value excursions to suit most pockets. We look forward to returning one day
