Holland America Line’s Eurodam is a mid-sized ship with a luxury style. With less space than the megaliners, you might think it would be a little crowded, but good deck planning means that public areas are spacious and have many corners and hidden oases of calm where a couple or family can stake out a private area for relaxing. The art collection is less garish than on some other ships, and there is an iPod walking tour that takes you round the ship’s public art in your own time for free. There have been a few changes in recent years, to accommodate new trends, such as the spa cabins with complimentary fitness equipment installed, and the specialist restaurant, Canaletto which has Italian cuisine.
