Ship: Norwegian Star
Sailing Date: July 13th, 2003
Itinerary: Hawaii
The Star is a beautiful ship. We felt the food in the main dining room was very
good -- no need to pay extra for the other restaurants. The Versailles was
elegant and the service great. We ate all our dinners there and had no wait
probably because we ate about 6:30. One evening we enjoyed a late dinner after
the show which was very romantic eating at that time. We were asked if we wished
to share and most times we did and met some interesting people. We enjoy doing
this very much.
This trip included Fanning Island which made us very happy because we enjoy
"sea" days and an opportunity to see this island before it becomes "modern".
Hawaiian islands were beautiful -- Waikiki Beach and surrounding area was so
clean - no litter anywhere.
A couple of comments -- we found the pool area and wait to get ice cream very
crowded. Pool area is spoiled by the huge slides -- a pool view while sitting
enjoying a drink was missed! Another thing which I just found out (we are
getting ready to do the New England/Canada trip on the Dream) and accidentally
found out that no-smoking rooms are available -- no one has ever told us about
this and our balcony sitting was marred by cigar smoke coming up from below --
the corridor smelled strongly of smoke. Why is NCL not asking when you make a
reservation if you want non-smoking????
Next time I will make sure I ask.
