Pros: Comfortable, friendly and relaxing Cons: Buffet food, so-so entertainment.
I just got back from my first cruise on the Westerdam, a 7 day cruise to Alaska departing from and arriving in Seattle. It was one of the best vacations I’ve taken, for several reasons. Including things not related to the cruise line, like going ...
Pros: The food was very good! The staff was very friendly, helpful, and attentive. Cons: Good food loses it's appeal when you're seasick.
This Alaska Cruise was the first cruise my family and I have been on. It's something my wife and I have talked about and looked forward to it with great excitement. It was a 7 day cruise departing from Seattle with stops in Glacier Bay, ...
Pros: "as God is my witness, I'll Never be Hungry Again!" You and Miss Scarlett... Cons: dang swimsuit season is coming up, and you just blew it

Pros: I had the most stress free time of my life Cons: The ship was just sold to Carnival Cruise Lines
I read several of the reviews and they were quite informative on statistics. I personally care more for what the cruise offered to make my trip stress free and enjoyable.
First, let me start off with food. I can't use any other word...
Pros: Good safety measures, we felt safe... Cons: long lines at Customs, dragging all bags with you

May 4, 2007 HOLLAND AMERICAN LINES Westerdam April 1,2007 – April 17, 2007 Sailing from Ft Lauderdale, Florida to Civitavecchia (Rome) Italy Nice room but that was about all. We splurged and reserved a deluxe suite and looked forward with ...
Pros: it was free! Cons: Staff members were unfriendly
We sailed on the Westerdam several years ago (1991), but this is a trip that sticks out in my mind. I have been on five cruises, and this was the only one that did not have a "fun" atmosphere.
If you can only take one vacation in your life, take your lover on a Holland America cruise to the caribbean in the winter. The weather is lovely, usually very warm but not real hot, the seas are calm and the islands are beautiful and loads of fun. ...
Pros: Quiet and laid back cruise with beautiful ports of call and great food and service. Cons: No internet service, no cash machines, and limited arcade games.
My wife and I cruised out of Ft. Lauderdale on February 17, 2001 on the new eight day eastern caribbean cruise to Half Moon Cay, St. Thomas/St. John, St. Marten, San Juan, and Nassau. Our outside room was on the lower promenade deck and was very...
Pros: Luxury, the rocking motion of the boat, ready food and drink Cons: Somewhat insular, smoking.
In February 1998, my wife and I decided to go cruising, lured by a Wine themed boat cruise through some part of the Caribbean (Western I think). The cruise was to have 2 or 3 wine-themed events, usually tastings and flackery by a wine maker or two,...
Pros: The staff, the decor of the ship, the ports, the food and the atmosphere during the experience Cons: NONE
This cruise was something that we had not done and it was recommended by a few of our friends. It was decided to take the Ms. Westerdam due to the age of the ship and the itinerary it had. We were 'Newbys' and did not have a clue what we were in for....
Pros: great service great ship and great locale Cons: it was a little cool outside and a little too short
A few years ago I went on the Alaska cruise aboard this ship with my family and it is and will be a vacation I will never forget. We boarded in Vancover and headed up into Glacier bay and made port in three towns including the state capital of Alaska,...
