Rotterdam - Transatlantic Crossing with Bermuda
Holland America's flagship repositions from Amsterdam to its Florida winter homeport the old-fashioned way: three English Channel ports, then six uninterrupted days on the open Atlantic before a landfall at Bermuda's Royal Naval Dockyard. Crossings are where the ship's Music Walk venues, culinary demos, and traditional teak promenade earn their keep.

What Travelers Say About Rotterdam
Reviews of the ship itself — the same for every Rotterdam sailing. Based on 650 discussions.
Rotterdam VII is Holland America's newest flagship and the third and final Pinnacle-class ship, following Koningsdam and Nieuw Statendam into service in October 2021. Its signature is Music Walk - a cluster of live-music venues including the Rolling Stone Rock Room, B.B. King's Blues Club, Billboard Onboard and Lincoln Center Stage - which becomes the ship's nightly energy center, paired with the high-tech World Stage wraparound-LED theater. The overall vibe is refined, music-forward and relaxed, and it skews decidedly older.
What People Love
- Newest, best-maintained ship in the Holland America fleet - guests repeatedly praise its spotless, like-new condition throughout
- Music Walk is the ship's energetic heart, with Rolling Stone Rock Room, B.B. King's Blues Club, Billboard Onboard and Lincoln Center Stage drawing crowds well into the night
- Standout specialty dining - Tamarind is called one of the best pan-Asian restaurants at sea, and Pinnacle Grill is both praised and priced below rival lines' steakhouses
Common Complaints
- Pools and hot tubs are undersized for a ~2,700-guest ship and feel crowded; the hot tubs are often called comically small
- With the Lido roof closed the indoor pool area can feel stuffy and greenhouse-like
- No large traditional production shows - evenings lean on singers, comedians, magicians and the music venues, which some find limited
