Maasdam |

 |
Rating:
Named for the Maas River in the Netherlands, the ms Maasdam is the fifth ship in Holland America Line's 135 year history to bear the name. At 720 feet, the ms Maasdam is designed to carry fewer guests while providing more space for maximum comfort. Many staterooms feature commanding ocean views, and each suite has a private verandah. Featuring an interior motif that pays homage to the historical Dutch East and West India companies of the 17th through 19th centuries, the centerpiece of this elegant ship features Luciano Vistosi's Totem, a monumental sculpture using nearly 2,000 glimmering pieces of murals painted especially for the Rotterdam Dining Room and a collection of seven iron teapots and a charcol brazier from Japan, which date from the end of Edo period. |
