After having read some of the reviews for the Zaandam, We embarked with some trepidation. I kept looking for the wear and tear that was so prevalent in the reviews. Two weeks of drydock certainly did the ship well.

All new carpeting, new bar venues, new paint, new upholstery, new attitude!

Our veranda suite was next to perfect. Of course the bath decor is a little dated but all the bedding and linens appeared to be new. Not a scratch or dent anywhere.

Cabin Review

Our midship top deck veranda was comfortable and spacious. More than adequate room for our overpacked outfits. The suite was quiet and not too prone to pitch and roll. The only problem we had was that one day there was no cold water. The hot water was really hot and couldn't be tempered. The problem was fixed the next day.
