This was our 11th cruise on NCL and I have to say, the best ship in the NCL fleet. The Pride of America is a beautiful, perfect ship to cruise around the Hawaiian Islands. The attention to detail in decorating this ship was amazing. The staff, mostly made up of Americans, was very accommodating and met the same standards of other NCL ships. Our Family Balcony cabin was only lacking some storage space in the bathroom, otherwise perfect for 2-3 persons. Port and shore excursions were a bit pricier than other trips we have taken, but every one of them met or exceeded our expectations. Embarkation and disembarkation went quickly and smoothly.
The Cadillac Diner was perfect for every hour of the day dining. Jefferson's Bistro (French) served a better filet than Cagney's. Entertainment and on-board activities were limited because you are at port every day, but what I took part in was great.
The pools and hot tubs were rarely full. Not many even sun bathing.
Perfect size for 2-3 people, close to elevator/stairs. No noise. Port side. Limited storage in the bathroom was my only issue.
