Two week Hawaiian cruise
March
Pros: Beautiful ship, great friendly staff, good food
Cons: Very expensive excursions, smoky casino, noisy mini suite at night
Recommended: Yes
When at sea, our mini suite was very noisy. Constant thumps, squeaks, rubbing and snaps, so much so that one night my wife thought someone was attempting to get into our cabin.

Discovery Princess
February
Pros: Beautiful ship
Cons: Long wait for dining service. They do not have enough staff to support the waiters. We averaged 2 1/2 hours at the table for dinner. We missed most of the shows because of the time it took to get out of the dinning room.
Recommended: No
I would not recommend this ship for anyone in a wheelchair. You cannot get down the hallways if a cleaning cart is in the way. We had to have our handicap person get out of the wheelchair and fold it up to walk past the carts. The elevator service is also a real challenge with a wheelchair a lot of time, standing, waiting for elevators that had her accommodate the wheelchair. There was no place to dance, except for the Piazza. Acoustics in that area were terrible could not carry on a conversation in the bars near there because of the loud music. This is definitely not the ship for anyone over 65.

First Cruise
December
Pros: Evening Entertainment was Awesome
Cons: Not enough activity or entertainment earlier in the day when at sea.
Recommended: Yes
Probably our biggest complaint was the smoke smell from the casino. Couldn't you have doors on it. There was entertainment on deck 6 though out the day, but we only went once due to the smoke smell from the casino which only got worse each day. I know we were not the only ones who complained about it. I feel for the performers who were performing at the Crooners on Deck 6 as they has to put up with it. I would like to make a positive comment for our Stateroom Steward Christopher Panelo who did an excellent job and was always pleasant. Also Rifki at the ice cream stand on Deck 16, again very pleasant. And Jeorge & his staff in the Market on Deck 16 Port forward section, Always took care of our needs.
