Review for a Alaska Cruise on Nieuw Amsterdam

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s
I chose Holland America for its good reputation. My cruise experience was very unpleasant and difficult. My cabin-mate got noro-virus, as did one-third to half the people in our tour group, and many other people on the ship. It was not being spread between cabin mates, so it must have been spread through dining services. I was told by medical that I was responsible for caring for my cabin mate, ...

Here are the issues that occurred.
We showed up for their fine dining and were told they did not have a reservation. I had the app on my phone as well and I could see the reservation at 6 pm on Friday, May 12, 2023. The staff did not offer to double check, call anyone or offer an alternative, We were not able to participate in that special event due to an error on Holland America’s ...

MV KONINGSDAM, Holland America Line, 18 days cruise, Vancouver, BC, return, to Hawaii, voyage K327
Disappointment. To say the least.
Unclear policy and unhelpful guests’ services, pre-cruise
Chaotic Embarkation
Disorganization of the Restaurant
Food rationing – unbelievable!
Uncompassionate, inflexible management style
Inadequate communications, announcement
Lack of proper ...

I am incredibly disappointed with HAL. I have traveled multiple times with this line and was always delighted.
That is not the case with my recent sailing on the Nieuw Amsterdam. Cleanliness was not a priority. In my cabin room, debris, old contacts, and gooey stuff were left in the trashcan, the bathroom floor wasn't clean, and neither was the area around the sink. The countertops in the ...

Our fourth cruise with HAL and second on the Eurodam with family in the next cabin and our first cruise since COVID hit. We had no idea things were this bad in the Industry that they were nickel and diming passengers every time you turned around. First time we had ever seen up charging for meals in the MDR and extra tip chits every time you ordered a drink with the drink package. Even the ...

We went on this cruise as part of a charter
The staff was delightful, and our cabin certainly fine, except for the last night when we were flooded by water from overhead
The aspect of this cruise we did not care for was that there were so many extra charges. All alcohol was an extra charge drinking water was an extra charge. The food was lovely in the dining room, but the dining room was ...

Review for a Caribbean - Eastern Cruise on Nieuw Amsterdam

I traveled on this cruise as a chartered cruise. While most of the crew was friendly, my previous 3 cruises on HAL were much better. Our stateroom was not clean and we rarely saw our stateroom attendant. We are both vegetarians and the choices in the Main Dining Room and specialty restaurants do not often many vegetarian options. In todays world I would think the chefs could be a bit more ...

Review for a Caribbean - Southern Cruise on Eurodam

10+ Cruises • Age 20s
Over 25 cruises, several on HAL. We find the HAL product much diminished. Menus downgraded, although the food was better than an October cruise. Same menu every sea day for lunch. Almost every beef dish, including potroast, very tough, even in the Pinnacle. Entertainment was good and bad. Comedians performed in the BBKing's. You had to get there an hour before to get a seat. On our 10 ...

Review for a Hawaii Cruise on Koningsdam

10+ Cruises • Age 70s
We are frequent cruises (2-4 per year) AND long-time travelers to Hawaii, going every 3 - 4 years for the last 30 years. In a tourist-way, we feel we know the islands pretty well. We picked this trip to see if cruising might be a way to keep visiting them as we get older . The flight from the east coast is long and tiring, and I can see the time coming when we will be less comfortable driving ...

We arrived in San Diego several days ahead and stayed across from the cruise pier at the Residence Inn by Marriott. It was fun to wake up with the ship arrived outside of your hotel room window.
With six trips on Holland America ships, including the Nieuw Statendam in 2019, and great memories from previous trips to Hawaii, we thought that this would offer a perfect winter getaway. This round ...
