Review summary

It was our first cruise after COVID-19. Had great expectations for the cruise. But those expectations were not fulfilled. Would I try Holland America again? The answer is no.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
For being a premium cruise line. Was very disappointed in the food in the main dining room. It was probably one of the worst of the 29 cruises we have been on. The Lido deck food was OK. All in all very disappointed

Entertainment

3 out of 5
If it were not for the Rolling Stones band. This cruise would have been a disaster for entertainment. The BB King venue was OK when we walked by. But did not stop there. The worst was the billboard. The lady who sang in that venue was terrible. Her voice was screeching. I wanted to pull my teeth out.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All the staff was absolutely 100% great! They made the cruise. It was such a joy to be there and seeing them excited about being back to work after COVID-19. They were always there to help you whenever you needed it. And I can’t thank them enough

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was absolutely gorgeous. And I really like the freshwater swimming pool. Never had that on a cruise before. Probably one of the nicest ships we’ve ever been on. And our aft balcony was great!.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
This is a aft balcony. It was great. But not worth the expense that you pay for it on this cruise line.

Ship tip

Don’t expect great food
