sail7seas Posted October 25, 2014 #26 Share Posted October 25, 2014 The Westerdam is a very nice ship in very good condition (we were on her a year ago). As I recall, she is newer than her sister ships (Zuiderdam and Oosterdam) which also are in good shape. In fact, I am sailing on one of them very soon, so obviously not concerned about the age and condition. Every HAL ship is a bit different (I think Westerdam has a chocolate shop but not a very good theater for example). <snip> DaveOKC Indeed, Zuiderdam is the first of the four sisters. Then came Oosterdam, Westerdam and Noordam joined the fleet in February, 2006 and is the newest Vista Ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruz chic Posted October 25, 2014 #27 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I was on Westerdam in both June and September. The latest changes were from the March/April dry dock. I forget exactly when it took place. As I mentioned in my other reply, these pictures are not ALL from July 2014 as stated because (and this is the obvious example) there are Christmas trees in several of the pictures Drydock was the first weeks of April. I took the post dry dock cruise on April 15/14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OVgirl Posted October 25, 2014 #28 Share Posted October 25, 2014 The real name is Chocolate Seduction and it is located just forward of the Shops on Deck 3. You can see photographs of it on my Westerdam link posted earlier on this thread. Here is the menu: http://www.rogerjett-photography.com/here/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/IMG_0756.pdf They also sell candy. We will also be sailing on Westerdam for the first time this winter. I was wondering if Chocolate Seduction will be open a fair amount, as I've read a few comments about no one working there? I'd love to try their chocolate coctails.

sail7seas Posted October 25, 2014 #29 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Often when we walked by there didn't seem to be anyone working there. It didn't really appeal much to me so I never made a strong effort to get service there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Himself Posted October 26, 2014 #30 Share Posted October 26, 2014 IMO the Westerdam is a fine ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean1946 Posted October 26, 2014 #32 Share Posted October 26, 2014 We have sailed her once and loved it and will be on her again Nov 15th. My absolute favorite is the Eurodam though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
