Holland America Line offers guests an array of tantalising Caribbean cruises that combine hidden surprises, smaller islands and heavenly beaches.
When it comes to cruising in the Caribbean, Holland America Line provides a full 360 experience, taking in tropical gems in full detail through authentic experiences, regional cuisine and local stories.
For travel agents, there are multiple selling points to highlight to clients, from the ships themselves to itineraries and excursions.
A Caribbean voyage for all
There is an itinerary to please every type of cruiser. For couples, the seven-night Tropical Caribbean cruise departing Florida on 13 February 2022 on board Rotterdam is the perfect romantic getaway.
Travel agents can highlight how a couple can spend Valentine’s Day relaxing on Half Moon Cay, the line’s own award-winning private island in the Bahamas, which celebrates 25 years in 2022.
For families, there is Club HAL, which caters for children 3 years old and above, as well as the Loft & Oasis, which is ideal for teens.
Family staterooms on board both Rotterdam and Nieuw Statendam can accommodate up to five people and feature two bathrooms – enough room for the whole family.
Unforgettable itineraries with Holland America Line
HAL offers 10-night-plus cruises, meaning guests have ample time in this glorious region to explore and return home relaxed and brimming with exciting travel tales.
Travel agents should emphasise the variety of ports on offer, with cruises sailing from Fort Lauderdale to the ABC islands – Aruba, Barbados and Curacao. HAL also goes to the coasts of South America, where most Caribbean cruises do not reach.
What’s more HAL’s own private Caribbean island, Half Moon Cay, is an unforgettable experience.
Guests visiting this gorgeous spot can explore its two-mile-long crescent beach and swim in clear blue waters. Activities include horse riding through the surf and hiring a private cabana.
These itineraries are complemented with exclusive talks held on board, with HAL’s Explorations Central programme featuring experts, captivating stories and tips.
Holland America Line ships – the perfect base
Pinnacle-class vessels such as Rotterdam and Nieuw Statendam boast five speciality dining venues alongside the main restaurant and casual buffet.
Not only are HAL’s ships spacious and packed with every amenity guests will need, but they are also purposefully designed to provide more space.
With a crew-to-guest ratio of 1:1, passengers can expect unrivalled attention and friendly service, where crew members will learn guests’ names and provide complimentary fresh fruit baskets and a shoeshine service on request.
Travel agents should also highlight that HAL has roomy veranda staterooms and suites on every ship.
