Zuiderdam

Zuiderdam is one of Holland America’s Vista class ships, so-called because glass is used extensively in the structure of the ship—providing ocean views to 85% of her staterooms, and verandas to two-thirds of them. This is one of the unique touches that make Zuiderdam a fantastic ocean-going home away from home as she travels through the Caribbean and the Panama Canal between October and April, and the Alaskan coast between May and September.

Holland America ships are famous for, among other things, their fabulous art collections, and the art onboard Zuiderdam includes some stunning works. Among the most notable is an Andy Warhol painting of Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands. There’s also the dazzling Waterford crystal seahorse located in the ship’s main atrium, and a series of large and intricate medallion pieces designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, as well as an extensive array of paintings and antiques, from Art Deco to Commedia dell’Arte. To fully appreciate the magnificent collection, guests on board the ship can take a self-guided walking tour, with a downloadable narrative that’s packed with information about the pieces and the artists.

There are plenty of opportunities for relaxing by the water, at the Aft pool or at the luxurious indoor hydropool, and it’s easy to keep up with exercise in the ship’s well-appointed gym. For the younger crowd, there’s Club HAL, with supervised activities for children, and The Loft, a game room-style hangout for teens aged 13 to 18.
