Hawaiian Cruise Reviews

Soothing sounds of ocean waves, spectacular sunsets, culinary delights and luxurious spas are only a few perks passengers enjoy aboard the dazzling Princess cruises in Hawaii. Of all Hawaiian cruises, we believe the ones aboard the Island Princess and her sister cruise ships provide the very best value for your money. Some Hawaiian cruise ships are crowded and make you feel like herded cows waiting for slaughter; not to worry, the Princess cruise ship gives you all the room you need. Like other Princess cruise ships, the Island Princess can hold almost 2,000 passengers; yet because of this vessel’s efficient architecture, you won’t have to search for spots to sun, read, or sip Mai Thais. From upper to lower deck, and from bow to stern, this Hawaiian cruise ship has a clear and airy feel.

Lots To Do Aboard Princess Hawaiian Cruises

These Hawaii cruise ships are, for all intense and purposes, glass boats; everywhere you look, you see glass walls, elevators, and even ceilings. Whether you’re eating lunch, lifting weights, or playing cards, you’ll never be far from a spectacular Hawaiian view. Days aboard the Princess cruise ships are full of activities. Professional cooking demos, computer courses as well as pottery and photography classes are great way to have fun and learn a new skill.

The Princess Cruise ships feature the Asian-themed Lotus Spa. Before your Honolulu embarkation, you can relax in a heated lounge receiving professional manicures, pedicures or massages – some treatments include state-of-the-art Chakra hot stone massages. There are two tropical rain showers with a "rain storm" button and a cold mist. Several steam rooms feature tiled bench seats and a bubbling, scented fountain. And Princess Cruise ships allow gym-goers to workout on the treadmills and step machines while admiring beautiful ocean views.  As with other Hawaiian cruise ships, this one has two swimming pools. An open-air deck filled with lounge chairs surround the Lido Pool and its three satellite whirlpools. The Lotus Pool is set under a retractable roof in case of rain.

Personal Choice Dining on Hawaiian cruise ships has become quite popular. You’re allowed to choose when, where and with whom they dine, and food is always available in the Horizon Court. The two main dining rooms are the Provence providing traditional, assigned dinner seating, and the Bordeaux featuring open seating. The Princess Cruise ships also offer alternative dining extravaganzas. On the Island Princess, Sabatini’s Trattoria, provides generous portions of such sumptuous delights as prosciutto, gnocchi and gamberi. If you’re into southern dishes like gator ribs, gumbo and sweet potato pie, you’ll need to check out the N’Awlins-style Bayou Café. The light, airy feel, numerous activities, luxurious spa, and delicious meals make this Princess cruise ship the best Hawaiian cruise available.
