This was a "9 person because my mom said so" bucket list trip. We boarded the Koningsdam as a family and left, most importantly, as a speaking to one another family :-) The trip did NOT disappoint. The duration was just long enough, and the relaxation afforded while cruising the passages was appreciated after fun-filled excursions.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Flawless onboarding. My mom's wheelchair was waiting for her when we arrived. All went smooth!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Who doesn't love the variety of cruise food buffet offerings? Staff was courteous, food hot and customizable.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
This ship was a bit smaller so some of the activities tended to "sell out" fast; but we did take advantage of the fitness center, pickleball courts, origami classes.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
The World Stage was smaller than some of the stages on other ships, but the dancers and singers were outstanding - even if we did have to stand!
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Top notch. In particular the Neptune Lounge staff who assisted us with our return flight check-in, printing our boarding passes. All staff was extremely responsive.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Spotless, spotless, spotless. There were attendees WASHING the decorative plants late at night so they'd be shiny the next morning when people awoke. Goodness!!
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Extremely comfortable, clean and MUCH larger than a traditional balcony cabin. We're now forever spoiled.
Ship tip
It's a bit of an smaller ship, so be prepared to attend events early or sign up way ahead of time.
