Overview

Holland America’s ms Westerdam is a premium family-friendly ship.

While onboard, the family can stick together or split up and enjoy the features they really want to see.

Mom can indulge with a facial at the spa while dad gets in on a pick up game of basketball. The kids will be busy all day and into the night at Club HAL where trained childcare professionals will be leading the kids in scavenger hunts and arts and crafts projects. Even your teenager will have fun at The Loft, a teen hangout where they can take tech classes and participate in a talent show.

The family can always regroup for a fabulous dinner and a show at the ms Westerdam’s Vista Show Lounge at night.
