Holland America Cruises

Facilities & Activities

Onboard all Holland America cruise ships there is a great selection of facilities and activities for you to sample. Whether you want to workout in the fitness centre, treat yourself in the spa, or just relax with a book by the pool, there's a perfect onboard activity for everyone. Personal enrichment starts with the Culinary Arts Centre, a world-class demonstration kitchen available on every ship for classes taught by Master Chefs or culinary guests. Nights on board are equally full of choices. Begin with a post-dinner drink in the Ocean Bar before heading to the show lounge to catch the nightly extravagant Las Vegas-style production. Then try your luck at the blackjack table or visit one of the many bars and lounges featuring live music and award-winning entertainment.

Accommodation

Spacious, elegantly appointed staterooms and suites, many with private verandas come in four main categories - Inside, Ocean View, Veranda and Suite and are filled with all manner of sophisticated amenities from the luxurious Mariner's Dream™ beds and premium linens to fine chocolates on your pillow every night.
