Review summary

The Rotterdam is a beautiful new ship with an excellent staff and gorgeous ambience. If you love music and dance this is the ship for you!! Food was also excellent and well,served. Only negative …we were promised a 50$ room credit and never received from ….which was disappointing.I won’t book with them ever again .

Embarkation

Ship tip

They do try to sell a lot of items and some of the activities are a bit lame. They should have ballroom classes at the biking club instead of lame line dances near the pool

If you had your booking paperwork they would have corrected the 50 room credit no issue. Holland is amazing and worth another try
