Holland America's ms Eurodam luxury Spa Staterooms

Holland America has just received delivery of its latest ship, the 14th ship in the fleet and the first of its new Signature Class series. At a naming ceremony in Venice, Holland America’s newest ship, ms Eurodam, was unveiled and is set to provide guests with a new standard of cruising experience with its luxury spa staterooms.

Located near to the Greenhouse Spa and salon on the Panorama and Observation decks, the luxurious staterooms will have a natural theme with walls of muted earth-tones and accent colours of bright fresh green to reflect natures own and with charcoal coloured carpet to bring the theme together. There will be a tranquil water feature in each room which will enhance the natural, soothing atmosphere with gentle background sounds.

The new Holland America Spa staterooms will also feature organic cotton bathrobes and slippers, a Burmese teak mat for bath and shower and invigorating shower head, as well as a Body Buff Loofah Mit and aroma therapy salts. There will also be additions such as iPod® docking station, a yoga mat, a pedometer for use aboard the ship, fitness DVD, a no-host minibar stocked with speciality waters, a cut-fruit tray at embarkation and a spa concierge to book treatments.

The natural theme Holland America are creating in the staterooms in reflected at the night turn-down, where pillow gifts include organic chocolate truffles, orchids and a line of chocolates called Elements which are herbal infused to enhance a sense of well-being and induce restful sleep.

The 56 staterooms on board Holland America ms Eurodam include two Superior Balcony Suites, 36 Deluxe Balcony Outside Staterooms, four large Ocean-View Staterooms and four large inside staterooms on Panorama Deck. The 10 Spa Staterooms located on the Observation Deck are all Deluxe Balcony Outside rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows and scalloped balconies.

"The spa experience is more compelling for today's premium vacation experience,"
said Richard D. Meadows, executive vice president, marketing, sales and guest
services. "Our spa staterooms are a result of this trend and we expect them to
be popular as more and more of our guests seek the ultimate in
relaxation."

Holland America’s ms Eurodam will depart on its inaugural voyage on the 5 July with a 10 day round trip from Copenhagen.
