Cabin: Signature Superior Verandah Suite

My husband and I returned home last night from our 7 day Alaska cruise on the Oosterdam with Holland America Line. We went from June 20th-27th. This was our first cruise and it met all of our expecations in every way.

The Ship and Our Stateroom: The Oosterdam is a beautiful and well-run ship. We had purchased an SZ superior suite. We were upgraded to an SS- two levels up. The cabin was large and comfortable. Lots of storage space for suitcases and clothes. We expected everything to be much smaller. The verandah was big with space enough to hold a table and two chairs, and two armchairs with . We loved the lighting in the room. There were lots of switches to play with to get any mood you want. There was even a reading light on each side of the bed.

One of the things we liked about this ship is that there are many many bars all over the ship with lovely sitting areas where you can sit and read and watch the ocean- with or without buying a drink.

Cabin Review

Signature Superior Verandah Suite

great closet space; loved the balcony- big and well equipped; good lighting; tub spa excellent

only room negative and it's a big one- we were on the 8th floor, just below the lido deck and there was constant noise like scraping and banging coming from above, especially early in the morning
