I was disappointed to find no guest laundry on the ship. Was on a 32 night cruise, and ships laundry costs very expensive for that amount of time.
Loved our verandah suite stateroom. The staff mostly cheerful and attentive. The ships band was amazing. Singers and dancers pretty good as well. Some of the bought on entertainment Average, one of the comedians was embarrassing.

Having previously sailed on the Zuiderdam several years prior, this sailing was a disappointment. I won't be a malcontent who spews venom everywhere; I just want to let you know the kind of things that made this a less than "Signature of Excellence" experience. The Zuiderdam had undergone renovations in dry dock earlier this year, so I was expecting to see an upgrade in the cabin ...

We were a group of four that sailed from Barcelona the beginning of September for a 12 night cruise ending in Venice. It was nice to board the ship and have a full night in port, before setting sail. Therefore the boarding process was very relaxed and well organized. I think it took all of 10 minutes from arrival at the pier to being in our cabin, now that is almost unheard of.
The cabin ...

We took two twelve day back to back cruises on the Zuiderdam. We had sailed on the Oosterdam to Alaska, so we thought we had the same ship. Not quite. The Zuiderdam is older, and the rooms, as others have noted, are smaller. The ship went through an update this year, but there were areas of worn carpet, etc. in the halls. Since we got a very good package, with air from the West Coast included, ...

I just returned from a 24-night Western and Eastern Mediterranean cruise on the Zuiderdam. I had sailed several times on Statendam-class ships, the Zaandam, Rotterdam and Amsterdam, but this was my first time on a Vista-class ship. On the basis of this cruise, I would have to say that the Vista ships have dumbed down some of the features that made Holland America unique.
The space previously ...

The ship-organized bus transfer at the Barcelona airport will cost you $49. USD each but you'll have to wait for everyone to board ... get a cab outside for approx. 25€ total tip included. It's a short ride to the ship.
We paid $2,050 USD per person (taxes all in) for a deck-one ocean-view cabin with no obstruction. I thought the price was high but I was willing to pay because Holland ...
