We very much enjoyed our second cruise on the Maasdam. (The flights to get there and get home...well that's another story.) We have always intended to do reviews before, but have not done so.

Stayed at Cambria Suites the night before (free with hotel points). Free shuttle to port. We were on the first one. HAL onshore staff was great, but they were struggling with some computer issues.

A Deck outside cabin near forward elevator, first cabin behind port side gangway was ready when we boarded. Cabin does not have fridge, so more drawers for storage where fridge would be. Cabin stewards were great, but we made no special requests of them. Luggage was in room before we needed to get ready for dinner. Cabin was across from a "pantry" where staff returned room service dishes. Occasional noise did not bother us, but it might bother some. Cabin is very convenient when returning from excursions. Last year our cabin was the equally convenient #731 on the starboard side. Read more
