Eurodam Cruise to Alaska – September 2-9, 2017

This was my first Alaska cruise and my first on Holland America. It was a fabulous week, and I would recommend it to anyone. Any criticisms listed below are nit-picking – nothing major, but I’ll mention our thoughts about how some things could be improved (in my opinion, anyway).

Embarkation -- couldn’t have gone any faster unless we RAN. Very organized and smooth. Our room (5065) was ready at 11:30, and from cab to cabin took about 20 minutes. There was a complimentary bottle of champagne from Costco who we booked through! I think they did this because we were celebrating our 25th anniversary.

Deluxe Ocean-View Verandah Stateroom

Cabin V

The cabin was great – lots of storage, outlets, and room to walk around. The balcony was perfect, the bed comfortable (pillows need replacing, though). My one suggestion is to put a clock in the cabin! You can get the time by turning on the TV, but that doesn’t work if your partner is still sleeping. Since cell phones don’t work at sea, my usual “clock” was useless. I was worried about being on the deck right above the lifeboats, but it was fine. They are certainly RIGHT THERE below you, but you’re usually looking out at the sea, not down. We liked being on deck 5 because there was no pool or nightclub above or below us, and it provided easy access to the bow for Glacier Bay day. We were mid-ship, and felt it was the perfect spot. We did have one bit of excitement when we got locked out on our balcony! Fortunately, our neighbors were out and called rescue for us. The staff came immediately and fixed the broken door latch.
