Merry Cerena Posted June 26, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Is there currently a better chance of ballroom dancing on Niew Statendam, Niew Amsterdam, Zuiderdam or Eurodam? We mourn the loss of the Ocean Bar and the Halcats, but wonder if any of these offer dancing in the Crow's Nest or anywhere at all? We have found BB Kings to be subject to long jazz riffs and off-tempo music, unsuitable for dancing. Thanks for any advice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m under the impression that ballroom dancing is on Holland America cruises which are over 30 days. Also on Crystal and Cunard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ew101 Posted June 26, 2019 #4 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) We had lovely ballroom and Latin dancing on the Rotterdam in March 2019 to a four piece combo in the Ocean Bar which had a roughly 14x16 foot dance floor. The dance floor, band stand and combo are reportedly missing from the Ocean Bar on some or most of the newer, larger HAL ships. The older, smaller HAL ships seem a good bet but check the daily programs online. We might need a dancing thread with recent reports ship by ship. Cunard does have a dedicated ballroom, dance hosts and orchestra on every ship. But it can be super crowded out there. If I was HAL I would promote the fact that you can dance on the smaller ships- there is a silly industry "rule" on fleetwide /brand consistency. Note on the lower photograph the dance floor is empty.
