Creator's Tips & Advice

Save a key card from a previous hotel or cruise day and put it in the key card power switch to avoid locking yourself out of your cabin.
Consider aft verandah staterooms for larger balconies and easy access to stairs.
Use the desk vanity unit as charging central for camera and video equipment.

YouTube Video Description

We recently sailed on Holland America Line's Nieuw Amsterdam for a 7 night cruise of the Caribbean. Take a tour of our very spacious aft verandah stateroom, cabin number 7136. Among the features of the room was an extra large balcony. If you're traveling to Alaska on Holland America this summer, perhaps this is the cruise cabin for you!
