Review for a Mediterranean Cruise on Westerdam

We booked this cruise because we received a great deal on the price and we liked the ports listed. The cruise started in Rome and ended in Venice with an overnight. I originally booked a Balcony Guarantee cabin, but approximately three before the cruise, I received an email from HAL offering an upgrade to a Signature Suite at a reduced price. I took the upgrade and was assigned 6070. The cabin ...

I wanted to experience ports in the Mediterranean and this cruise offered the ones I wanted to see. The ship after being updated is very nice. My cabin was a guarantee balcony 5120 that was very nice. It was midship which turned out to be great when we had a very rough sea day. Holland America diverted the cruise from Calvi to Ajaccio due to the fact that using tenders would have been ...

I am a 3 star Mariner so I've done my share of HAL cruises. The changes HAL is making to update the ship are not all positive.
They have removed the library and replaced it with a few books about Holland (we were sailing in the Mediterranean) and a reader's swap. I believe we were the first sailing since this change was made so there were very few books in the exchange. One reason we had ...

We did the 36 day cruise commencing in Barcelona on June 16. We took in some great ports of call especially in Croatia,Albania,Monte Negro and Slovenia.
Our cabin was spacious although somewhat noisy at night till about 11.30pm
All amenities on Westerdam were excellent. Food was great in the main dining room and Lido.
Airconditioning in the Crows nest was generally very cold. We ...

We cruised from Barcelona to Rome, June 16-28 and were pleased by most of what the Westerdam had to offer. But the food was a bummer.
We are vegetarian, which limited the choice somewhat but even the choices with this limitation were few. Aside from pure salad, it was hard to find plain food. Everything was loaded with cream, heavy cream. Also, we found out that there is a vegetarian menu ...

Great ports of call but many days lost to illness. I have cruised eight previous times and this is the first time I have ever been sick. That being said---MANY guests were very ill on this cruise. My cabin attendant did an excellent job cleaning my stateroom but I never saw banisters, lounges or elevators being cleaned.
Horrible meal at the "Pinnacle". No anchovies for the Cesar Salad and no ...

We wanted a cruise that visited the ports of Venice, Dubrovnik and Barcelona and this one fit the bill.
The ship was disappointing - we sailed on the Royal Princess last year and that was a far superior experience in every sense.
The onboard experience was dull and uninspiring from the shops to the entertainment and the food.
The excursions that we organized externally were great and ...

The cruise included visits to a wide range of attractive ports in the Western Mediterranean. From Barcelona, the Westerdam stopped in Cádiz, Málaga, Gibraltar, Alicante, Palma de Mallorca, Calvi, Toulon, Monaco, Livorno (Florence), and Civitavecchia (Rome). The ship's staff and crew were excellent, food venues were good, entertainment was entertaining, and the experience was generally fun. My ...

Review for a Transatlantic Cruise on Eurodam

10+ Cruises • Age 80s
We booked three back to back cruises which totaled 29 days. We found the food inedible on the Eurodam. The food was so bad, I could not eat it. I lost 14 pounds on the cruise, which is probably the only good thing that happened. Meats, and fish did not taste fresh, and they were always overcooked. Vegetables were often sparingly served, and the sauces, and combinations that the kitchen came ...
