mrsd1 Posted May 27, 2009 #1 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I just got an opportunity to upgrade to a verandah cabin on my June cruise to Alaska. What would be the best choice? I've been told there are vacancies in VA ,VB, VC, VD, VE, VF and VH. I've looked at the deck plans, but would like some other input. Thanks for any thoughts.

JJ2sail Posted May 28, 2009 #2 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I think VA is the most expensive balcony category, if I am remembering correctly. I would look for the closest balcony to midship if possible, jmho. We were on deck 6 in a VB and it was a bit far forward, but still close to the elevators.

mrsd1 Posted May 28, 2009 Author #3 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Thanks for your reply Jen. We did get a VA on deck 8 which I'm happy with. It's a bit forward, but I think we will be fine. I'm just glad to have a balcony! Thanks again for your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robnmac Posted June 4, 2009 #6 Share Posted June 4, 2009 We had VA aft. The balcony was huge. We spent alot of time out there. The view was great. Had a great time on the Westerdam. Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady_cruiser Posted June 5, 2009 #7 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Does anyone know this couple? The Westerdam was parked next to us while we were in Cozumel in February and while taking photos from our balcony I noticed that this couple was in one of my photos. I'll like to send them a copy if they would like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinman7 Posted June 21, 2009 #8 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Hello MRSD!, we cruised the Panama in 2006 on the Zuiderdam (sister to the Westerdam) and we were in VA8009 deck 8 Forward. We were on a 21 day cruise and found the cabin to be excellent with no motion problems what so ever. We will be on the Westerdam Sept 27 from Seattle to Ft Lauderdale with our 3 older children as well as my mother. We are in cabin VF5061 on deck 5 and are somewhat concerned due to the closeness of these cabins to the knock back in the ship and the lifeboats below. If anyone has any info on these cabins we would greatly appreciate it while we still have time to change. Thanks in advance and hopefully someone can enlighten us :-) Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cantdance Posted May 11, 2010 #9 Share Posted May 11, 2010 We just got off the Westerdam and had balcony cabin 5089 on deck. It and the cabins on either side of his all suffered from some incredible flexing noises that frequently woke us. Our friends had 5123 and 5076 and did not have any problems.
