This was our first trip on a Holland America Line ship, we chose it because of the itinerary and the sail date. I can say we will probably sail on Holland America again only if there are no better options in our time frames. I am going to give a brief overview of the main items on this cruise as experienced by us.

The cabin- the cabin was overall better than we have had on both Celebrity and Royal Caribbean. It was slightly larger and the bathrooms were bigger, the bathtub was a plus as it kept the water from going all over the floor! We never took a bath because it is tool small, but it is a nice plus. There was plenty of storage and the Veranda was perfect size. We wish the TV was larger and in a better location as we did have one night that we were not feeling well so we stayed in the cabin and watched a movie. It is a little tough due to the TV's location, however, watching TV is not why you are on vacation! Overall I give the cabins an A.

The Food - we were disappointed in the food overall with the notable exception of the Tamarind restaurant which I highly recommend for Dinner (not lunch). The main dining room food was average at best, we had several nights where we did not finish our entrees because they were not very tasty, we fell that because they cater to an older clientele the food was bland. One night the fish (Cod) my wife ordered had the texture of chicken, nasty! I would suggest eating mostly in the Tamarind and the Lido restaurant (the buffet) which was passable.

The cabin is in a quiet location on the ship, however it is across from the crew space so if you sleep past 8 or so you will hear the stewards in the AM. Overall I give the cabins an A.
