Our back to back cruises in the Caribbean on the Holland America ship Rotterdam really did exceed our expectations! We had previously prioritised sailing with Celebrity but the Rotterdam was more than a match on several counts.
The quality cabins, attentive crew and like minded passengers made the whole experience a joy. As always with Iglu the stays and transfers were smooth and of high quality only to be matched by the ship itself.
We had the 'Have it All' package that led us to experience exceptional cuisine along with interesting and exciting excursions that may have otherwise not invested in.
The food in all corners of the ship was special and the Dutch Cafe a pleasant retreat with bright and friendly service.
Entertainment by the BB King Blues Band was of the highest quality and performed by exceptional musicians. It was only in the World Theatre that the quality of some of the performers was lacking and the inclusion of live backing music was missed.
This was only our second cruise with Holland America and will not be the last!
