Was looking for a crossing where we could play bridge, and see some Spanish ports. The Eurodam was very nice. We had stopped going on HAL for several years because of mediocre food and numbers passengers with walkers. We found the food to be excellent, except for the alternate restaurants. The Asian one was very good, but the ultra gourmet restaurant, De Librije, was a joke! Presentation was ...
Last days of October, first days of November provided exceptionally good weather in the Western Mediterranean area. That of course helped in having a wonderful experience. Even in the evening the outside temperature was balmy with an oily, slick sea. I booked a cruise inclusive flight and transfer with HAL and both the embarkation and disembarkation process were impeccable and speedy. The ...
Part of our deal was a two night stay in Barcelona which was a great start,embarkation was good and quite rapid.Balcony cabin was as expected with kingsize bed,large TV with plenty of films etc.The bathroom including tub was OK,goid hair products and dressing gowns.Good storage for all our clothes.
Dining in the Lido restaurant was good and the only drawback for us was you are unable to serve ...
We had always wanted to go on a Mediterranean Cruise but never thought we could afford it. Last Spring we found a great deal for the 12-day Oosterdam cruise so we took advantage of it. We stayed in Barcelona for a few days before the cruise and staye din Rome for two days after the cruise. The cruise line handled the transfers with ease. Overall we were very pleased with Holland America. We ...
Ship is not too large so that you still feel like a welcomed guest. The staff are incredible. Friendly, attentive and personable. Main dining room cuisine is excellent. Nightly entertainment is very high standard.
Embarkation and disembarkation are very well done. Even the usual chaos of boarding the tenders is effortlessly done.

We selected this cruise based on the itinerary and loved it! The ports of call were cities we knew very little about, which made it even more fun. We only did the Spain leg starting in Barcelona. With only one day at sea, it's perfect for those who have attention deficit disorder, lol. The crowd is a little older - average age maybe mid 70s? We are from New Orleans and believe we have some of the ...
We took the Eurodam on a last minute cruise from NY to Canada in 2015 and we had a good time. Our last couple of cruise experiences weren't great as anyone who has been cruising for a while will know that cruise lines are cutting back all the time. The cruise you took ten years ago isn't the same as today. Therefore, our expectations were low. Our thoughts were that we would use the ship as a mode ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary. In a week you get a good taste of Southern Spain and Gibraltar. There is so much history, art and architecture that one week is not enough to explore in depth, but you can get the highlights. The timing fitted our vacation perfectly.
We enjoyed the food in the main dining room and had an especially tasty meal in the Pinnacle Grill. Service everywhere on ...
Arrived in Barcelona 2 days prior to the cruise definitely could of spent a few extra days there.
Embarkation as smooth as silk as was disembarkation.
This is the second time we have sailed in the Eurodam, and she didn't disappoint us at all.
The cabin we had a Verandah Balcony Cabin love it plenty of room wardrobe space and love how they have put the TV on the wall.Our cabin stewards ...
Time of year and Itinerary. We stayed in Barcelona 2 nights prior. Had a chance to enjoy this delightful city, and no jet lag for the cruise!
Favorites were Monaco, Dubrovnik and Kotor because they were so unique. Did several Cruise Critic excursions and they were awesome! Tour guides in Civitevecchia, and Livorno were great!
Holland is very nice and predictably old school cruising. The ...
