The Westerdam is large enough to have a broad range of venues and activities, but small enough that you see people you know again & again, and you don't have to deal with overcrowded buffets, insufficient lounge chairs, and long waits for an elevator.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The presentation and variety of food items served in the dining room is incredible. However, the Lido (casual dining) serves wonderful food items as well, with only a bit less choice and fanfare than in the main dining room. Don't miss the high teas!
Entertainment
5 out of 5
I love HAL because it is not as frantic as some other cruise lines. There are activities, but you can also hang out in a public area with a good book, and be undisturbed. The evening entertainment was OK.
Children's Programs
3 out of 5
My 14 year old only attended one time, but she had fun. Not many kids on board the week we traveled.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Our cabin steward, Andy, met us a few minutes after arrival. He asked our names, and greeted us every time we passed him in a hallway. Crew members were warm & friendly. They seemed to make a special effort to start conversations with anybody who looked lonely or worried.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The crew is always cleaning & maintaining this ship, inside & out.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Storage space was more than adequate. Comfortable furniture on the verandah. Bathrooms are spacious by ship standards. This cruise, my daughter brought her own DVDs to play.
