Koningsdam Single Oceanview Stateroom AO

Cute, very small, had a place for everything, I have many black and blue marks from knocking into the little table as there was no walking room. I did a double inside guarantee and ended up with a single. What I hated most - every time we pulled into a port at 6:00 am or so it sounded like planes landing for an hour and after I guess we were closer the engines roared for another 30 minutes or so. I go to bed at 2:00 am, so getting up at 6:00 or before was not my idea of a restful, catching up on sleep vacation. It was disgusting. I also heard the waves (I guess that's what it was) smacking against my cabin. I have never had a location like that. When I do guarantee inside on Celebrity, I am on 9, last time 10 and center of the ship. In order to brush my teeth or wash when we had a lot of movement, I had to brace my legs and hold on to something with one hand. This cruise was nothing that I thought it would be and I was very disappointed.

I love that Koningsdam has solo ocean view rooms instead of just interior; however, they are slightly more expensive than on other lines but I feel they are worth it. The room was the perfect size for one person and the bed was extremely comfortable. I have never had an ocean view room before but it was nice having a window, but with it being so low there were many times the waves would be as high as the window and being in the front of the ship you can feel the rocking. If you are one who gets sea sick these rooms probably are not for you. The desk and bathroom were also nice sized, again you don’t need much room for one person. If I could get a good deal I may stay in a solo room on a ship that has them otherwise an interior room could be cheaper even with a supplement.
