Pros: Happy, kind staff. Best stateroom attendants. Great Itineary, lectures, and activities.
Cons: Bring a sweater - public spaces on the ship can be cold. Dining room service was slow. We switched to the buffet in the Lido Market and are very happy with that decision.

We have cruised on all 4 classes of Holland ships. Staff is always great and ships comfortable. Our issue Zaandam class spa not comparable as expected or advertised to other 3 class ships experienced. Tiny 3 person max low quality hot tub, no massage jets, slippery access, loose plastic rim grates literally float out of place and slide sideways when stepped on ( wife fell entering tub ) NO FOLLOW-UP from management when report filed as Guest Services stated. NOT WORTH $299 pp ($598) total. Public pool and 2 hot tubs on deck were much better. Apparently many people aggressively complained and were refunded. We had been very satisfied with Holland America cruises previous to this trip.
Pros: Holland America overall is very enjoyable cruise line Zaandam spa substandard
Cons: Hydro spa is nothing more than a low quality residential hot tub--dangerous

Really enjoyed celebrating 50 years this way. Everything was easily accessed- entertainment was great- food was awesome. Employees gave excellent customer service from cleaning staff to servers to the staff running the entertainment. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway
Pros: Small ship and easy to get around- actually run into people from our land excursion so was able to chat with them again
Cons:

Found Website cumbersome and not user friendly… Internet was AWFUL Disembarking Instructions issued us Blue 3. Our flight was at 12:10. We followed the given instructions and were truly moments away from missing our flight. An obvious screwup by Holland America… NO information given on Dining Room, if it was on website I never saw it and I must have been online 15+ times before cruise
Pros: Activities, Food, Schedule, Service, Friendliness, Cleanliness
Cons: Website, Disembarking, internet
