I have been on numerous cruises, including three with NCL. We were on POA last summer and had a great time. However, the cruise itself was not up to the standards we have come to expect from NCL. It seemed that they were very understaffed. For example, there were days our room was not made up until almost dinner time and there was no turn down service. The entertainment was lacking. That all said, it was a great way to see Hawaii. Happy to answer more questions or share my cruise pictures.
