Joyce B. Posted May 23, 2005 #2 Share Posted May 23, 2005 We had D525 on our Hawaiian Cruise in January on the Island. It was very nice. We enjoyed the location. The open balcony did not bother us at all. We only saw the lady above us one time. If you have specific questions, just ask! Had a great cruise!

Joyce B. Posted May 24, 2005 #4 Share Posted May 24, 2005 The weather for the first two days out of LA were cold and windy. Needed long pants and a jacket. Same thing for the last two days when returning to LA. The seas were not crystal clear, but we made it fine. Not one of the eight at our dinner table were bothered by the rough sea. It was VERY RELAXING cruise. The weather in Hawaii was wonderful. No rain--just sunny skies! Have a GREAT trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunsail Posted June 2, 2005 Author #6 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Was the balcony large enough for 2 reclining chairs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtevrfltsurbt Posted June 2, 2005 #7 Share Posted June 2, 2005 As I am also sailing the same ship/itinerary I asked the same question about the lounge chairs, here's what I was told: Balcony on Dolphin deck mini is 9x9 ft, more than ample for 2 chairs! Happy Cruising!:) Was the balcony large enough for 2 reclining chairs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam in CA Posted June 2, 2005 #8 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Whether you're sailing in January or April, the first two days out of LA and the last two days can be cooler and the seas choppier. As you approach Hawaii, it gets warmer. If you don't get motion sickness on a car or plane, chances are that you won't get seasick. One thing to note if you're planning on using the internet, you'll have at least two days on each leg where there won't be satellite coverage. (The satellite doesn't cover all of the Pacific Ocean, quite understandably.) I loved this itinerary: very relaxing but with plenty to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunsail Posted June 9, 2005 Author #9 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Reading other message on board it sounds like it can be too hot with an open balacony and too windy to sit on the balcony to have breakfast when sailing? What did you think? We had D525 on our Hawaiian Cruise in January on the Island. It was very nice. We enjoyed the location. The open balcony did not bother us at all. We only saw the lady above us one time. If you have specific questions, just ask! Had a great cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruisin' Chick Posted July 6, 2005 #13 Share Posted July 6, 2005 You may want to do a search on Hawaii in this forum. There were several threads and reviews about the Island's trips to Hawaii that are really informative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MFH Posted July 6, 2005 #15 Share Posted July 6, 2005 We are also on this cruise, celebrating my husband's birthday on Jan. 9. I was thinking about doing the Ultimate Balcony dinner for him, but am wondering if it will be too windy. This will be our second Hawaii cruise, can't wait!
