We has a wonderful time on the cruise. But compared to other Holland ships I felt the management was lacking. We rarely saw the cruise director. The friendliness of the bartenders and the cleaning of the common areas. I would certainly board this ship again however the attitude of the staff starts at the top.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Food was excellent. The bars were lacking. Service was very slow at all bars. The bartenders were not friendly. The drinks were not garnished. Very disappointing when on vacation
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Pool was standard. There is a second level of lounger chairs and they need to put a shower on them. Also a station for discarding towels and drink glasses
Entertainment

Loved the comedian
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Room stewards were wonderful. I felt the bartenders were not particularly friendly. They did not make you feel special as other Holland America ships. Wait staff was very good
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Loved the layout and design. I was surprised to not see common areas being wiped down and continuously cleaned especially in todays world
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
The most comfortable bed. The room was kept clean and the Stewart’s were very happy to help with any needs
Ship tip
Sign up for the early or late dining. Anytime dining doesn’t allow you to get to know your waiter and for him to know you preferences
