Another great cruise on HAL, been on the Oosterdam several times and will be back on board in December for Hawaii...the ship, as many have stated here, does show some signs of wear, but give me a break folks, ships are used 24/7 by thousands of passengers and just like your favorite hotels, they get refurbished periodically...last time for "O" was in 2009 and it will be done again this year, the last week in September.

A few specifics...embarkation was a breeze as usual...have your boarding pass and passport in hand...grab your room key from the friendly shore staff and viola...you on the ship very fast!!!

After more than forty cruises on different lines, HAL is our favorite, the food and service are always good...don't miss eating in the Pinnacle Grill at least once, it's well worth the extra money and do try Canaletto too!!!

Cabin Review

Signature Superior Verandah Suite

Cabin SY

This is a very nice aand large cabin...get's a little bit of daytime noise from the lido deck seaview cafe when crew is moving things around, but not too bad...like the entire ship, the cabin has a few nicks and dents that will be cleaned up during the upcoming September drydock.
