Italian Nancy Posted August 22, 2005 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Can't wait to read your latest review of our beloved Zuiderdam.. will be sailing her on Sept 10th & 17th. Did you get to meet the current HM and if so, how was he.. I had read another post that he was rather cool and curt to other CC members when approached. I was certainly hoping to meet Mr. Deering but I understand he won't be back on the Zuiderdam until October Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candy Posted August 24, 2005 #2 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I unfortunately did not have an opportunity to meet the Hotel Manager, Mr. Van Regemorter, so I cannot comment on his demeanor. I did, however, receive a lovely email from him regarding a note I sent him concerning a new gaming feature and some particularly outstanding service we had from certain personnel. He will be on vacation in November and returns in December for Zuidy's 2-week drydock. I'm working on the review, but first I had to book Zuidy #6.

Although I am sure you wish you were still on your other home the Zuiderdam:D Looking forward to hearing your review of this cruise. Yes, life can be cruel. The only way to overcome this awful withdrawl was to book Zuidy #6, so I did. Candy <-- will be back 'home' on 11/13/05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcc99 Posted August 24, 2005 #8 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Candy, I loved your response to the "Princess cruiser" review. The poor soul should have known better than to speak ill of your beloved Zuidy! :D That nickname has stuck, btw...I've been using it on our roll call. Looking forward to your review of #5!

If so did they oil that squeaky door? Always sounded like a haunted mansion when it was opened. lol If so was Delia or Damian dealing? How about George the casino manager? They were all super the week i was aboard. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill No, I don't play, but I was 'thrown out' for talking about dice in the 'quiet room' :( You're right... nothin' quiet about that door! After a few days they simply left it open. Damian dealt craps on the first night (when I won the most money), but I don't remember Delia and never got to meet George. Allen Brown, Richard, Maribell and another supervisor with glasses that I can't remember his name were absolutely great, and Paul (who actually trains dealers at hold'em) dealt poker. Jim played in every game and walked the table a couple of times... we had an absolutely wonderful time! Most of them will be gone by the time we return in November, though.

cruzingqueen Posted August 27, 2005 #11 Share Posted August 27, 2005 You mentioned "Maribel"....is that Maribel who is the Guest Relations Supervisor at the Front Desk? She is wonderful if it is the same. I would love to hear that she is back. Hunky Dory should be back for your Cruise #6 too. I emailed him the other day to see when in Sept he is returning, but no word yet. Glad you had a wonderful cruise! Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candy Posted August 27, 2005 #12 Share Posted August 27, 2005 No, Maribel is a dealer - one of the best! Hunky is due back on HAL in mid-September, but has not answered my emails all summer. Even though I made a big deal about 'knowing' Imam, Donny Walker did not remember my name all week... Hunky, we miss you!
