The cruise was nice. Food was not as good as I remember Holland having. We missed the land portion because my husband got sick with COVID.

“Good Cruise”
5 Stars
Cruise Date: 06/16/2024
Destination: Alaska
Overall, it was a great cruise. HA amenities are perfect for what we want. We utilized the pickleball court everyday. The food was good. We always enjoy happy hour as we don't purchase the drink package. The entertainment was good though they had the same comedian four times during the 14-day cruise. My only negative comment is that I think HA service, especially in the Lido Market is slipping. It is difficult to get beverages and refills except for self serve.
