Sail Date: Jul 2014

We have always wanted to cruise on the Prinsendam. The size of the ship and it's unique itinerary has always been appealing. 60 days before sailing a good deal came via email for the trip around the British Isles and we jumped on it.

Let me start by stating if you are looking for a ship with all the new bells and whistles you will be greatly disappointed. the pools are small and the hot tubs show there age. If you are looking for great service, food, unique ports and a ship that is so easy to get around then you will love her. Many People traveling on this ship would never consider traveling on anything else.

We enjoyed the fact that we had a non stop flight arriving early into Amsterdam. HA did a wonderful job with transfer services and we were at the port by 11:00 am. Since booking late we were at the mercy of HA as to where our inside room was. We drew the long straw! While getting an inside cabin, we were given mid ship, deck 9. In my opinion one of the best decks to be on. Deck 9 is quiet and has access to the aft pool. This is truly on of the least used area's on the ship. It felt like our own private deck! We used the hot tub and enjoyed many evenings---- ALONE! So tip 1 use this area to enjoy the ocean and quiet time.

Cabin Review

The walk in closet's really gives you lots of space in a very small room. Great mid ship location and deck 9So quiet-- no motion and located near the aft pool and deck and easy to get to dining and the lido deck
