I love it - I've done two cruises with that cruise liner on the Dawn Princess at the time.
2011 - 13 nights Melbourne to Melbourne around South and North islands of NZ
2014 - Melbourne to Melbourne around South Pacific Islands, New Caledonia and Vanuatu.
It's like a floating town, 2200 passengers, mostly oldies and you just go watch theatre, comedy shows, do all sorts of silly activities, there's a 'casino' with table games and pokies, 10+ restaurants, night club etc.
You just sit around floating through the ocean at 30km/h with 2000+ other people.
Cheap holiday too, was $1800 in 2011 for 13 nights which included all my food and accommodation, just had to pay for drinks and shore activities in NZ.
It's way cheaper than travelling locally, even Adelaide which is cheap as a local destination if you're staying in the city you're spending $120-$200/night on accommodation alone for 4 stars.
