Volendam promenade deck stateroom opinion?
albingirl replied to roupa's topic in Holland America Line
I love a lanai cabin. Quick access to the promenade. But, be careful. Check the deck plan. Some of the cabins are under the kitchen galley. That's a guarantee for a miserable night's sleep. -
I love that ship. We've had three cruises with her in the past 2 years. The Dutch Cafe and deck 10 lounges and bar are my favorites in the fleet. Od course, I always said the Maasdam was my favorite Then Rotterdam. Fickle I guess. Have fun!

Really glad for your postings. Thank you. Bon Voyage and all life's blessings on your journey! -
Your remark of dead cow hit my funny bone. Sorry all you vegans. Of course, I can't eat rabbit. They are way too cute.

My diet consists mostly of fish and when we sailed for a few weeks last winter, I found the fish to be very good. And I am picky about the freshness quality of fish. Personally, I find if I freeze fish for a week or two, it has very little effect on the overall taste.

I consider lunch in the Pinnacle to be a very special occasion. The filet with creamed spinach and mashed potatoes are really something I'm not having on a regular basis where I live. Bring it on. I will happily leave my coveted lounge chair and book to enjoy a very fun lunch complete with a great glass of wine.

This is all heartbreaking and so miserable. Oh, to wait for peace. We pray.

And useful for those whom we wish to avoid lol -
I like to tip everyone, but this was a tough one, since everyone in there seemed to wait on us at some point. What I did was ask the manager for a complete list of all the employees in there and gave them all special recognition in the end, on the survey. There was never going to be enough money in my pocket to do them justice, so that's how I handled it.

The food is good. One time I had the vegetarian Indonesian selection and it was awesome. We don't always go, but I generally don't like to miss it.

No matter what; drinking alot and playing bingo is always fun! Fun crowd, I am sure -
I always thought it was strange that they leave key cards outside your stateroom door. First of all, that is your key card for drinks and other very important things that matter. Casino isn't open but you could charge a boatload of drinks on that card. Never mind, just thinking of mischief and mayhem.
