My wife and I and and another couple left May 4, 2010. Did all paper-work on HAL website. Print only first page for back-up in case they loose you in system. Embarkation was painless. Took our carry-ons and went straight to Lido to a great lunch. This is our 20th cruise for me and my wife, mainly on RCL, Holland and Princess.

I found Holland to have the best food of any ship we have been on, with Carnival coming in dead last. Princess, Carnival, and RCL ships are beautiful, outside and inside especially the atrium. Holland is lacking in some respect to inside appointments. Food makes-up for any short comings.

The kiss-of-death for Princess is the Lido deck where most people eat. IT WAS DESIGNED AND LAID OUT BY A DRUNK SAILOR!!!! There is no flow, absolute nightmare. Found a mix of all ages on HAL, as a rule-of-thumb it will average 50-60, not true on this cruise.

Cabin Review

Superior Verandah Suite

Cabin SY

SY cat on 6th floor upper verandah #6065 starboard approx 400 sf, loved it, had Riza and Fendi for stewards, wonderful, very large balcony, double vanity, separate tub and shower. Few dollars more than the standard verandah #6051 that friends stayed in.
