Morimoto By Sea is a new Holland America Line restaurant concept inspired by the cruise line’s partnership with Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto, who serves as the cruise line’s Fresh Fish Ambassador. A permanent dining venue on Nieuw Amsterdam, and a pop-up on the other Holland America ships, Morimoto at Sea is another example of how cruise lines are changing the gastronomy at sea game. Join us as we dine out on a fantastic meal at this don’t-miss specialty restaurant.

We’ve taken more than a half-dozen cruises in the past year, sailing with all different types of cruise lines, yet there’s one line that we keep coming back to: Holland America Line. Their ships, their crew, the food, the entertainment, the value... there’s a lot to love about Holland America. So whether you’ve never sailed with Holland America before or you’re one of their 5-Star Mariners, in this video let us share with you 5 of the reasons why we personally love Holland America, and why we think you should too.

Delivered in 2009 and refurbished in 2017, Holland America Line’s Nieuw Amsterdam is a cozy midsize vessel that offers a variety of activities to keep you busy while onboard, with 11 public decks, 2 pools, and an entertaining Music Walk on Deck 2.
