We are looking into a Hawaiian cruise for 2022 on the Golden Princess. We have never been on the Golden any opinions on this ship would be appreciated.

Have been on Golden but not the Grand, they are pretty close to the same ship. On the Golden, cabins are their basic early style layout so pretty comfortable and the ship flows nice on all the decks except for the Explorers Lounge area at dinner time as you get the crouds for the photo gallery and Sabatini's all at the same time. You have to go through the casino to get to the upper level of the theater and the theater entrance area can get pretty tight in the elevator and stair well. On the lower theater level the Crown grill gets in the way and there is only one passage way. The areas are reversed on the Golden and the Grand, on the Golden the casino is on the upper level and the Crown is on the lower level, it is just the opposite on the Grand. Other than that can move around pretty easy.
