Review summary
Had a great time overall. I enjoyed the cruise but the last two at-sea days were a little on the boring side as we had already heard all the music ad nauseum. Overall, I would travel Holland America again as I was very impressed with food, service and cleanliness.Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Food was excellent. Sparkling clean.
Onboard Activities
Had mobility issues so did not participate
Entertainment
I enjoyed the stage shows and comedians. The lounge singers in the Billboard Onboard just got annoying after a couple of days. The music in the Rolling Stone Lounge was better but also got repetitive after a while.
Children's Programs
No children
Service and Staff
The best! Had a mobility scooter breakdown and the tech guys, Craig and Billy, worked on it for over 2 hours. The Guest Services young man, Reuben, was great and Tio, our steward, was great. Every one of the staff was welcoming and the service was top notch.

I did not like the excursion through Holland America. The room they took us to for the Mussels and Music was horrible. The music was not what I was expecting.

The trip to Peggy's Cove was the highlight excursion of the trip. The guide was excellent and we appreciated being able to see more of the town.
Weather was terrible. Had a sailboat excursion that was really bad. Very cold and you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. Had to go back to the ship to warm up for 3 hours.
