woodinville cruisers Posted January 8, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 8, 2023 I would like to get information about cabin J#1877 located midship on the dolphin deck on Zaandam. On the deck plans it looks like a larger cabin but I was told it's only 183 sq. ft. Has anyone stayed in this cabin? Do you have photos? Would you book it again? Any pros and cons?

cwd79 Posted January 9, 2023 #3 Share Posted January 9, 2023 We are booked in this cabin later this year and don't see a lot of info on it either. Hoping you get some responses. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwd79 Posted January 9, 2023 #5 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Google doesn't show much on passenger reviews for cabin 1877. A couple here and there but nothing significant. Hoping someone on cruise critic has had prior experience in this cabin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted January 9, 2023 #6 Share Posted January 9, 2023 The two links posted above show a generic picture of a large inside on an R-class ship. It's a generous size cabin, about 186 sq. ft. However, the sideways placement of cabin J-1877 indicates to me that the cabin is somewhat different than the generic large inside. I don't know this cabin, but know it could be similar to J-2619, which I am very familiar with. If it is similar to 2619, then the cabin is large, arranged differently than other J-category cabins, and quite desirable. Take a look, too, at the fact that it is over a crew area. I have no idea what goes on one deck down, so don't know if there is any noise source. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodinville cruisers Posted January 9, 2023 Author #7 Share Posted January 9, 2023 halfacts has photos of a cabin 1841 that looks less desirable than the typical layout. Closets are at the foot of the bed and the cabin looks to be more crowded than usual, so not all sideways cabins are created equal. I've scoured the internet and can't find any photos for 1877. Usually the deck plans seem to be pretty accurate when looking for a larger cabin. We're still looking for a solution after loosing our original cabin #2619.

We're still looking for a solution after loosing our original cabin #2619. Looking closely at the deckplans, and the HALFacts pictures of 1841, compared to 2619, I see one difference that matters: in 2619, the bathroom juts out into the short crew passageway next door. In 1841 the bathroom is incorporated into the cabin itself. The deckplan has 1877 without the extra space for the bathroom. I will bet that 1841 and 1877 are identical, with both very different from 2619. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carnivaljunkie Posted January 9, 2023 #9 Share Posted January 9, 2023 We have 1877 on the Rotterdam in February. I will post pictures and a floor plan on Halfacts.com when we return. The deck plan shows 1877 to be 4 to 5 feet longer than 1841. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodinville cruisers Posted January 10, 2023 Author #10 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Thank you but Rotterdam isn't the same class of ship. I'm sure people would like to see photos on halfacts though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carnivaljunkie Posted January 13, 2023 #11 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Sorry, I am mixing up my cruises. We will be in 1877 on Volendam in January 2024. Probably not a help for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwd79 Posted April 10 #14 Share Posted April 10 I stayed in that cabin on the Zaandam and I am the one who took those pictures from our August 2023 cruise. Would not hesitate to stay in that room again. Very spacious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had my eye on it for a few weeks but haven't been able to wrangle all our friends yet into pulling the plug to sail 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
