Mexican Riviera Christmas Cruise From San Diego

Please note that this is Holland America Line's MS Oosterdam and it is simply breathtaking. There is not another ship like it in the world. She is more of a beautiful, vintage hotel. As nice as the ship is, you will be treated to a most exciting itinerary. Here's an idea. If you are planning that Perfect Vacation, consider using this remarkable stateroom and have other friends or relatives booked into other cabins on the same cruise. Other accommodations are available at Tremendous Savings.
Host Parties in your Stateroom or sit and watch the sea slip by. This is truly a chance of a lifetime
We are open to getting you a different date, upgrading your cabin or even other cruises
Port Fees and cruise related taxes are not included in the price.
Deluxe Verandah Outside Staterooms include two lower beds convertible to a queen-size bed, bath & shower, sitting area, private verandah, floor-to-ceiling windows.

DINING
Holland America Line serves incomparable cuisine in a variety of wonderful ways – from bountiful buffets and dress-up dinners to hors d'oeuvres on your verandah and a picnic on the beach.
We offer the most extensive menus at sea (with more than 500 different food items on a typical 7-day cruise), blending together modern Continental cuisine, regional specialties appropriate to each cruising area and traditional favorites. Our chefs are all members of the prestigious Confrerie de la Chaine des Rotisseurs gourmet society.
Yes, your mouth will water at the aroma of so many delicious options. But your other senses will delight as well – fine dining has always been the rule on our ships with signature touches like Rosenthal china, starched linens, silver and fresh flowers to enhance your meal.
With so many tastes to tempt you and venues to enjoy, you're sure to experience the many pleasures world-class dining can offer.
In addition to breakfast, lunch and a five-course dinner, you can enjoy: afternoon tea; a stirfry or pasta buffet; an ice cream bar; hot hors d'oeuvres during the cocktail hours; an evening espresso or cappuccino; and the traditional late-night snack (one of which will be our Dutch Chocolate Extravaganza). Or, try the Terrace Grill, located outside, featuring hamburgers and hot dogs as well as a taco bar and a daily special. And, of course, complimentary room service is available 24 hours a day. Casual dining is available in the Lido Restaurant every night.
ENTERTAINMENT
Be amazed, be surprised, be thrilled. Our ships offer so many entertainment venues, you're in for the night of your life.
Lounges
Choose to relax in one of the sophisticated bars or lounges on board. We offer everything from wine and cocktails to espresso and hand-dipped chocolates. Whether you enjoy a quiet candle-lit corner or a rollicking good time, you're sure to find something to suit your taste.
On Stage
In our dramatic, multi-tiered show lounges you'll enjoy dazzling Las Vegas- and Broadway-style production shows created by more Emmy®, Grammy®, Tony® and Oscar® nominees than any other cruise line. These spectacular musical programs feature vocalists, comedians, illusionists and variety performers.
.
DANCING
Join in the fun with swing, disco, fox trot, waltzes and calypso at one of our several lounges. And be sure to take to the dance floor in our signature Crow's Nest nightclub and observation lounge.
ONBOARD ACTIVITIES
Amusements and activities are plentiful on board our ships. With so many choices, there's something to suit everyone.
Active
When you're feeling athletic, there are pools for swimming and decks for strolling. Exercise classes, deck games and dual-purpose tennis/volleyball courts offer more fun.
QUIET TIME
For quieter moments, visit the library or join a game of bridge in the card room. Or enjoy conversation with new friends over an espresso. Our spacious ships offer plenty of cozy corners and traditional wooden deck chairs for those who wish to spend time reading, writing letters or watching the changing sea.
SHOPPING
Just as the intriguing shops in the day's port of call fade into the horizon, a whole new world of shopping opens on board Holland America Line ships. Shop the onboard boutiques for duty-free treasures, including French fragrances and Swiss watches, fine liqueurs and designer goods.
