We spent 7 days in a Neptune Suite on Holland America Konningsdam cruise ship. In this review we show you around our Aft Corner Neptune Suite and tell you exactly what perks you get when you book this type of suite.
It cost $5000 to upgrade to this type of suite for our cruise to Alaska - was it worth it?
We completed the Titan Travel Alaskan Deluxe Voyage which included a land tour of Canada from Calgary to Vancouver including the Rocky Mountaineer and a cruise on Holland America Konningsdam cruise ship to Alaska in July 2023.

Sailed on the Koningsdam to Alaska in September. We received an upgrade offer to the Neptune Suite two weeks before we left. My husband and I loved it! So spoiled. The cabin staff was superb, the lounge staff so helpful and the Club Orange restaurant food and staff were excellent. I don't know how we will go back to a regular cabin now. Interesting our bathroom had a separate toilet room, silly difference but was appreciated. 😂

I think that’s one of the biggest problems with having a suit is when you have to go back to a normal cabin, but it was an amazing experience! Like you said the club orange experience was exceptional.

I watched your video about the Neptune Suite and your Alaska cruise experience and I thought, we have to do this for our 35th Anniversary. So I booked on the cruise, but it was an older ship in the Holland America Line. and the itinerary was not really what I wanted. After a bit of research, I changed to the Konningsdam because of the improved itinerary and glacier bay. I thought I would watch that video again and to my surprise, we coincidentally booked Neptune 5217! We are really looking forward to our very first cruise in August 2024, though it is over budget. You two were inspiring! Thank you for letting us know exactly what we will be experiencing. Bon Voyage!

We asked the room steward to empty the fridge on the first day. And then we restocked it with the free stuff from the Neptune Lounge. I believe it was the Concierge in the lounge that recommended that, else we would not have known to do it.

WOW that cabin has an entirely different feel from pretty much any other I've seen and I think it's all in the windows. It gives a vibe of being on a yacht or something. I love the one over the bed. And that sofa..wow. You can see it's older, but dang, that's a great cabin set up. Service and overall just...feeling? of the ship are more important to me than roller coasters and go carts anyway. Right before you said it though, I had the thought "5k and the mini bar isn't included????" My last two Alaskan cruises have been on an aft balcony which was great, but having the corner would be amazing. Biggest complaint on those though was that we had a chance to see the northern lights and our balcony would have literally been the BEST place on the ship to view...but our neighbor insisted on keeping the balcony light turned on. We thought maybe they just didn't know, and asked the steward to turn them off...nope, they just clicked them back on that evening and left them all night. I should have worked up the courage to go knock and ask them to turn it off but it was very late/early and while THEY were rude, I couldn't bring myself to be rude back. I needed to channel my inner Paul! I think with that balcony and room service I'd have been there most of the cruise, but I'll reserve that idea for after I've seen the rest of the vlogs. Love to you both, thanks for the video. Have really enjoyed this series and looking forward to the rest.

Sailing on her in March 2024 for Ca Coast trip. Also doing aft Neptune suit on level 7. Since our first experience in a Neptune suite in 2019, this is the only way we sail with HAL. Just completed a Full Transit Panama Canal from Fl to San Diego for 14 days and having this suite paid off in the amount of luggage we packed. Since laundry and dry cleaning are free, we packed less. Thanks for sharing and safe sailings

I can totally understand wanting the big balcony when you`re cruising Alaska, I`ve seen a few Alaska cruise vlogs and it would be totally worth it if you could do it! I`d be a bit miffed about paying for alcohol though after forking out that much extra! This looks like a wonderful end to your trip though I`m excited to see the cruise portion.

@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel Yes, with limited availability, you can upgrade for $25 per person per day. That also comes with a cabin upgrade, including priority boarding and disembarkation, a fruit basket, free mimosas, and a tote bag. We had a guaranteed balcony cabin, so we upgraded to the aft with the purchase of Club Orange. A great deal if you can catch it in time.

That's an amazing balcony and a very nice stateroom. Hubby and I opted for a midship unobstructed ocean view, as it's our first ocean-going cruise and on board the MS Volendam this summer. We enjoyed a 5 night cruise last summer down the Ottawa River and up the St. Lawrence River (Ottawa to Kingston Ontario Canada) on the Canadian Empress replica riverboat with St. Lawrence Cruise Lines. It was great fun, and we met and made many friends as it only has room for 70 passengers. This summer's adventure, Boston to Montreal, will be quite a different experience for us.

Although HAL is far from being our favourite, we got a good fare for a Neptune Suite on the Noordam to Alaska a few years ago. The total fare for two people on this seven-night cruise was about $6000 - and that is Canadian dollars. The fares early in the Alaska season are cheap in all categories. It was a mid-ships suite; those at the stern were sold out long in advance. The staff were excellent, both the suite staff and the lounge. Unlike Cunard's Grills, the same mediocre food in the main dining room was what we got. Breakfast was available in the Pinnacle Grill, which is a nice perk. HAL doesn't serve lunch on port days, so having the Neptune Lounge was an excellent benefit. (We aren't fans of cafeterias at sea.) Unfortunately, the Neptune suites are pricey on many other voyages. I would like to take the Montreal-Boston or v.v. cruise but I am not paying Cunard Grills fares for something that lacks the amenities people expect for those high prices. If you can get a good fare for Alaska I highly recommend the Neptune suites, though.

As I've said before, I can't change my wife's mind. 1st trip was on AidaNova corner suite, and we have had to do 4 more of the newer aida ships since. Luckily, it's not 5k more, plus 3rd and 4th guess at around £250 is a steal. The lounge 100%, priority boarding, breakfast in steak house, coffee, and 1 bottle if Moet in the room are the main perks, but are nothing compared to the room and balcony space. H+A staff and service I would expect it to be on a different level though.

I actually worked as an entertainer/performer for Holland America on the Nordam in 1988 doing the Alaska run so I’m super excited for my husband to experience all that I had the privilege to do when I was young. We would love to know what information you can share about the restaurants that say it is an up charge like the Pinnacle? We purchased the “have it all” package, and would like to check out these other restaurants however, it seems as though only certain items on their menu are an up charge, not the actual restaurant experience. Can you clarify? Also, with the privileges that come with the Neptune suite, specifically the Club Orange…. did you find yourselves spending more time dining there than other restaurants? Did you feel the food offerings were better there than the other restaurants? Thank you so much for any suggestions!

Great cabin but no free bar? That’s ridiculous. I think I’ll stickto MSC Yacht club for that price to be honest, as good as that is.

That was the only real downside to be honest.

I find the perks not worth it compared to other cruise lines such as Royal or Norwegian.

I’ve heard that Norwegian has trouble with serving warm food. I’ve had two friends take cruises and complained about the cold food. That’s a deal breaker for me.
