Review for a Mediterranean Cruise on Koningsdam

The Good - 95% of the workers are lovely & incredibly hard working. They make up for the ship's many flaws. Embarkation/Disembarkation was smooth, swift & without issues. We had a balcony cabin, & the size of the balcony was impressive. Ports were also fantastic & the reason we chose this cruise line to begin with. This was our first cruise with HA & sadly will be our last. We have traveled ...

This was our first cruise on Holland America, and most certainly the last. Actually, our cruise on Koningsdam was the first one we wished to end. We were prepared that the passenger would be a bit older but still it managed to surprise us. Occasionally we felt that we were lost in a retirement home´s summer trip. In a way it was nice to feel yourself too young even in the age of 50+ but it is not ...

Last year same ship going to Norway , there were 3 Broadway musical (production show as per cruise director, Ross). This time, there were none. Only vocalist, pianist, magician and comedian. Compare with 12 to 20 dancers on musical shows. Is it cost saving???
The ship supposed to be high tech. But the back ground high tech lighting for the evening shows failed to work for the first week. The ...

Our cabin flooded through no fault of our own. We were sitting on the balcony and not aware of all the water until we went inside. We immediately called Guest Services to inform them about what was happening. From that point forward, dealing with the staff was bizarre for the duration of the cruise.
It was our second time to sail on the Koningsdam this year (2019). During our first sailing, ...

MS Koningsdam - A Review
I cruised Koningsdam for 24 days from 10/18/2018 to 11/11/2018. She is about 2 years old and appears to be in very good physical condition and is well maintained. That said, Koningsdam is a mixed bag of good, bad and ugly...in this writer's experienced opinion.
THE GOOD
By all appearances, the ship is being kept very clean. Wear and tear has not yet begun to show ...

Review for a Mediterranean Cruise on Oosterdam

10+ Cruises • Age 80s
We had traveled on Holland America before and whilst disappointed decided to try the Oosterdam as it had been recently re furbished.
Check in was good but then nobody to direct or show you to your cabin. The cabin was good and furnishings excellent.
Before dinner we looked for a nice comfortable bar to have a drink but found there were none. The Crows Nest bar, normally a feature was ...

Review for a Transatlantic Cruise on Koningsdam

10+ Cruises • Age 70s
Timing was right for our transatlantic, maybe should have waited a couple more weeks. Nothing unusual about the embarkation or disembarkation. The weather was great on the way over because the captain avoided all the bad weather south of us. Ship is nicely laid out, seems to be enough room for everyone to find a quiet spot if they want. I liked the comfortable couches and lounge chairs. Food ...

Review for a Mediterranean Cruise on Westerdam

We chose this particular cruise because of the ports, especially the Dalmatian Coast. No other cruise line had this itinerary. We've done many other cruises on other cruise lines, but a first on HAL. Never again.
Overall the staff and stateroom service is great. No issue there. The ship interiors are nice enough for a mid-size, middle budget cruise line. Where they miss it is food. The ...

My wife and I have done numerous cruises of varying durations over the years. Our experience a few years ago on HAL Nieu Amsterdam was very positive so we confidently booked a balcony suite on Westerdam for a 24 night back to back cruise recently.
The best description of the ship I can come up with is boring. We were so glad that this was not our first cruise experience because, if it was, we ...

We had the signature suite Deck 6 Sailed 24 July -4th August
Pros
The staff dining staff were exceptional, they went over and above to please you. The drinks staff were polite but you got the feeling they were there to push sales.
Good selection of movies and TV Shows which were available on demand and free.
Cons
It's a really boring ship....nowhere to have fun. Even the BB Kings ...
