Additional details

Sail Date: Dec 2012
Cabin: Verandah Suite

It costs around $1000 a night for a deluxe verandah suite on most Holland America ships and, sometimes, an extra .50c for ear plugs to get a decent rest.

Due to an original design fault, up to 144 of the most expensive suites on eight HAL ships -- Volendam, Maasdam, Ryandan, Statendam, Veendam, Rotterdam, Zaandam and Amsterdam -- are located directly under the often-noisy pool deck.

The sound of deck chairs and tables scraping, running, footsteps and even table tennis can be heard in many staterooms directly below.
