The History of Holland America Line


Founded in 1873 in the Netherlands as the Netherlands-American Steamship Company, Holland America Line has welcomed more than 150 ships throughout the years. Boasting one of the deepest histories and richest legacies in the cruise industry, the cruise line is renowned for its impeccable service and enthralling destinations.

Holland America Line Ships

There are 11 ships in the Holland America Line fleet, all of which offer the signature touches for which the cruise line is renowned. All ships are mid-size, allowing for journeys into smaller ports of call and longer stays to discover and explore. Each ship has been designed with timeless elegance and sophistication in mind. Luxury is evident throughout with rich woods, handsome furnishings, beautiful floral arrangements, exquisite artwork and valuable antiques. Spaciousness is also a core of the Holland America Line ambience and guests are made to feel comfortable with a good space-to-passenger ratio.


Onboard Experience

Accommodation

Holland America Line offers a fantastic range of suites and staterooms. Inside staterooms feature two lower beds convertible to one queen-size bed, a premium massage showerhead and a host of amenities. The expansive Ocean View staterooms feature all the same amenities as an Inside stateroom but feature the added bonus of a window. Holland America Line’s Verandah staterooms offer the addition of a private verandah. With a teak-lined verandah, floor-to-ceiling windows and a comfortable sitting area, the Vista Suite is filled with light. The Signature Suite, which is slightly larger in size, features all the same amenities. Lastly, the Neptune Suite, with its floor-to-ceiling windows and private verandah, features a large sitting area and a lush bathroom with dual-sink vanity. Amenities include the use of the exclusive Neptune Lounge, a private concierge and an array of complimentary services.

Dining

Dining with Holland America is a journey within itself. Perfection is served throughout with creativity, flavour and presentation second to none. Dining on board is flexible with guests having plenty of freedom. The main dining room offers two sittings; 5:45 pm and 8:00 pm. Here, guests can indulge in sumptuous five-course meals with an array of classic favourites alongside dishes inspired by the destinations sailed to.

For those looking to drift from the main dining options, there are a number of spectacular speciality restaurants including hearty Italian eateries and renowned steak houses. What’s more, Holland America’s Culinary Council (a collection of the world’s most influential chefs) have contributed their signature dishes to various menus for the ultimate sensation of flavour. Casual dining on board is just as exquisite as the main restaurants, from delicious fresh food in the buffet to the outstanding Dive-In bar offering mouth-watering gourmet burgers and hot dogs.

Entertainment

Holland America Line guests will never be short of entertainment, with a wide range of world-class shows and lounges on offer. From the Lincoln Center Stage with outstanding live chamber performances to the B.B. King’s Blues Club, an 8-piece band performing funky, fast or smooth soulful hits - there’s plenty to make the evening special! What’s more, the cruise line offers plenty of lectures, spa treatments, classes from master chefs, wine tasting, digital workshops and so much more - a day at sea is eagerly anticipated.


Destinations

Holland America Line offers a wide range of fascinating itineraries around the globe. Guests can venture as far as Alaska, Australia and Asia or take a shorter exploration of the Mediterranean. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to visit the cruise line’s private island, Half Moon Cay. Always a worthwhile addition, Journeys Ashore allows guests to connect with the people and the places they are visiting for the most unique and enriched experience.
