Westerdam Review

Westerdam Review

Westerdam is the newest cruise ship and is part of the Vista class of Holland America. What this cruise liner offers is a mixture of the old glory days of liners with its traditional formal nights yet having a casual feel to its dining traditions. This is one ship that still adheres to the former charm of sea cruising amidst the allure of the innovative strategies other cruise liners have. This cruise line offers classes that range from flower arrangement to digital photography editing. Every passenger has an activity to do on board the cruise liner.

Westerdam

Yet the design of the cabin is as trendy as the trendiest cabins on the sea. It also follows the trend of cruise liners of today where it gears towards the verandah style. The smallest balcony cabins are roomy and it can contain a pedestal table and chairs alongside the bed. But passengers will agree that small as it is the amenities that it contains is also at par with the largest cabins of the ship. The amenities of the stateroom have the best of them all. With Egyptian cotton linen to direct-dial phones, passenger will surely enjoy their stay here.

You can be sure that dining will be an experience you will never forget. The dining experience focuses basically on the main restaurant where it serves breakfast and dinner daily. But to those who prefer restaurant-style experience, you can always do that on Deck 2 of the main dining hall.
Particular diners will have a lot to choose from, especially those who have specific diets like vegan or kosher.
The public areas would include Explorations Café where passenger can play board game together or simply read a book while sipping coffee, and the Crow’s Nest bar, the observation deck of the ship. Aside from these two, there are other rooms they can explore and have fun.

High technology is not all that you can find on the Noordam! The Noordam is also filled with beautiful classical and contemporary art ranging from an 1842 oil painting of the city of Utrecht to a gallery displaying a full range of fine photography of great modern musicians such as Dizzy Gillespie and BB King. One of the most striking pieces on the Noordam is a beautiful hand-made 18th century chest inlayed with real ebony and precious stones. Adding even more drama to this beautiful piece are the soaring wooden 17th-century Baroque columns flanking the finely wrought chest. If you have an IPod or other MP3 player available, you can tune in to our free shipboard tour of these and other fine art pieces all over the Noordam.
