We just returned from the Jan 2nd sailing. Overall we had a really good cruise. We have cruised with NCL, RCCL, and Carnival and we thought that Holland was superior in a few areas. (And lacking in others)
The new ship was pretty under whelming for us. I think we were expecting more, but it did not have any type of "wow" factor. It was a nice new ship, but it didn't really seem to have any "new" type features. (Except for the Cabanas)
We spent the night before at the Hampton Inn which was just OK. It was a nightmare trying to catch their shuttle to the port on Sunday morning, so we decided to use a taxi for $15. (Money well spent)
Nice bathroom. Room was small. Very hard to navigate with two people.
