Loved the ship! We've sailed on larger "mega" ships with the masses and completely enjoyed the smaller and more efficient Veendam. Unlike other reviews, we found the ship very clean, fresh and had no problem with elevators. The pool is small, but most of them are. There were kids and families in the pool but we expected this. Again, I've been on larger ships where the pool is not much bigger and a LOT more crowded. Check in was a breeze.

We had an outside cabin on Deck A with porthole windows. Again, very clean, fresh and we actually enjoyed the portholes. Cabin size was very decent. Bathroom is a nice size. We could hear the anchor but didn't find it annoying or disturbing. Cabin Steward was great, always available and like most of the crew, smiling and helpful.

Bermuda is great, not our first visit so we knew what to expect. We booked the kayaking shore excursion in Hamilton which was GREAT. I highly recommend. We did several other shore excursions on our own, rode the ferry, went to the dockyards. LOVED the street fair in Hamilton on Wed. night. Very festive, good music - good snow cones. Travelled with a family group of 6 ranging in age from 8 to 54. We all enjoyed.

Large Ocean-View Stateroom

Cabin H

Good location, 2 portholes rather than one big window but we liked the portholes. Very clean, fresh feeling. Bathroom is a good size, closet space is decent. Hallway was quiet. We could hear the anchor chains when docking but did not find it disturbing at all.
