eagles09 Posted September 26, 2019 #1 Share Posted September 26, 2019 We are relatively new to cruising and are looking at sailing on the Nieuw Statendam next year. Can someone please explain the difference between Verandah and Vista Suites? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gigi1977 Posted September 26, 2019 #2 Share Posted September 26, 2019 The room arrangement is different. Bed by balcony (Vista) vs sofa ( Verandah) by balcony. The size difference is very small to not at all. In booking a Vista you are awarded double cruise days towards mariner status. ie 7 day cruise =14 day credit There are no real Suite benefit in a Vista other than that that I can think of - others may weigh in with things I’ve forgotten. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cat shepard Posted September 26, 2019 #3 Share Posted September 26, 2019 A yoga mat and robes came with our Vista Suite. We laughed when we realized we would have to move furniture out of the cabin to fully utilize the mat. I am just happy we did not pay for the upgrade.

Do Vista suites include the expanded stateroom breakfast menu? Edited September 26, 2019 by rucrazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vistas do not have yoga mat etc, but ALL staterooms have robes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ine Posted September 27, 2019 #8 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Vista suites is only a bit larger then verandah rooms. Bathroom is the same. Sofa near balcony in Verandah, sofa near bathroom in verandah rooms. Fresh flowers were the tiniest flowers in the tiniest vase we ever saw.... Umbrella and binocular in Vista Suites. Next time for us again a verandah, not worth the extra money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM1984 Posted September 27, 2019 #9 Share Posted September 27, 2019 (edited) I am looking at a website that has tons of cabin pics, and we have shared pics for others to see, too. Looking at the Eurodam and Zuiderdam Suites, they look larger than a Verandah, larger than what has been described here. Am I missing something? We love a Verandah and still would not move to a Suite. Edited September 27, 2019 by CM1984 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Eurodam and Zuiderdam (and many other HAL ships) do not have Vista Suites, while the two newest HAL ships do (newst ones have Veranda, Vista and Signature). Thus the big difference from the Veranda and Signature cabins on the Eurodam and Zuiderdam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
