Nieuw Amsterdam Review
Rating by category
Additional details
Our travel agent was arranging this cruise for her friends nd clients and asked us to sail with them. The price for our Signature Suite was very attractive and we have sailed HAL and enjoy their cruises.
We found the Nieuw Amsterdam to be very, very crowded in the public areas. Our suite was spacious and very comfortable. We loved the Lincoln Center group and attended all their performances. Also enjoyed the other music venues, BB King and the dueling piano guys. Food in the dining room was quite good and we also enjoyed our meals in the Pinnacle Grill and Caneletto. Morning in room service for coffee was timely every day.
We had reasonably nice weather so we were able to enjoy the aft pool area most days. We enjoyed swimming at the beach just off the ship at Grand Turk and our beach time at Half Moon Cay.
Cabin Review
Superior Verandah Suite
Spacious. Mattress was very uncomfortable on one side; probably where people sat on the edge a lot. Balcony deck was finally cleaned part way through the cruise and we washed our own balcony window. Be sure you put out the card to make up room as it will not be done otherwise.
