This was our first cruise experience and we are now totally hooked on cruising. Not having anything to compare with we were completely open to a ship experience. Absolutely everything was amazing from our first step on board to dining experiences, entertainment, shore excursions, and the most friendly professional staff imaginable. Wish we had done this years ago. The stateroom we had was just perfect with a balcony to watch the ports appear, changing scenery, a quiet place to relax and enjoy the ocean scenes.

Both embarkation and disembarkation were completed in an easy and smooth manner. At all times we were kept aware of what the days activities would be and there was plenty to keep everyone entertained and occupied. I would recommend this cruise ship to anyone who enjoys a relaxed holiday with professional staff who will look after their every need. Cannot wait to book the next cruise with Holland America Line.
