Just returned last Wed night from an amazing 10 day Southern Caribbean cruise on the H.A. Koningsdam..... Was my first solo cruise since becoming single after losing my husband to ALS .... Had a fabulous time, met so many people from all over North America & beyond ....
What attracted me to this ship was the music venues ..... This ship had the best entertainment of any ship I have been on in 15 cruises so far ..... the B B King's Blues Club & The Rolling Stone Rock Room were so amazing in the talent of musicians & singers that I spent every night there just grooving to their awesome music ... WOW!!
The itinerary was great .... food not bad but could have been better .... Overall would give it a 10+ for entertainment, 7 -8 for food, 10 for room (spa balcony #10043) , ship in excellent shape, ports fantastic ....Absolutely loved the shower with the teak bath mat ...
Day pass to Delfins Beach Resort
Did a Holland America excursion to Ocean World .... had the best time of all ports ....
did the basic excursion .... saw all the shows - some a few times ....sea lions, dolphins, sharks, birds ( macaws, tropical love birds, etc.) .... was amazing ....
When we were there - there was also a Carnival ship .... absolutely way too many people ...beach packed with people ... no room .....shopping venues great
Went ashore by tenders .... the H A Veendam also there ..... temps a little cooler that day - low 70's - for lounging on the beach
