| The
Greenhouse Spa concept was originally established on the Vista Class of
ships (beginning with Zuiderdam) and its success has lead to the
extension of this concept throughout the fleet. |
 |
 |
|
As
all other Holland America Line ships have undergone the Signature of
Excellence enhancements, they have been upgraded from having the Ocean
Spa to the Greenhouse Spa. |
 |
 |
|
The Greenhouse Spa
consists of a fitness center, dual saunas, dual steam rooms, massage
rooms, beauty salon, thermal suite, and relaxation rooms.
|
 |
 |
|
The thermal suite
consists of a hydrotherapy pool, heated ceramic lounge chairs, and steam
and sauna areas that are accented with invigorating scents.

Amidships on Lido
Deck is the main pool and is trumpeted by 'Leaping Dolphins' by Susannah
Holt from England. These bottle-nose dolphins are made primarily of
bronze and weigh nearly two tons.

The Lido Deck pool
area also offers alternative dining options such as the Terrace
Grill. Here guests can enjoy hamburgers, tacos, fries, and other
casual treats.
The Lido Restaurant is Veendam's casual dining venue and serves up
breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffet style. The buffet is divided
into sections making it easy for guests to get exactly what they would
like. Dessert, salad, and ice cream parlor stations are just a few
example. Guests may enjoy casual dinner in the early evening hours
in the Lido Restaurant as an alternative to formal dining in the Rotterdam
Dining Room.
