Cabins to avoid & quieter candidates

What’s above your ceiling matters as much as the view. Compare the decks around your cabin, then use the location notes to build your shortlist.

Use the exact sailing edition and confirm cabin category, view, connecting doors, accessibility and refit configuration with Holland America. Date gaps between published editions are preserved; a gap is not covered by either diagram. Spatial cautions are not verified noise reports.

  • Deck 2 where cabins overlap on Decks 1 and 3

    Compare central Deck 2 accommodation

    Start with a room that has accommodation immediately above and below, away from lift lobbies, stairs, connecting doors and service access. Also check the outdoor promenade footprint on Deck 3 above; accommodation overlap does not remove all footfall exposure.

    Why we flag this

    The selected ship-specific plan shows accommodation across these decks, with some public or service spaces requiring an exact footprint check. This is a conditional shortlist, not a guarantee of quiet. Check the source plan.

  • Deck 7 below occupied Deck 8 areas

    Check Deck 7 beneath the Lido deck

    Match the exact room to pools, whirlpools, buffet/dining, outdoor seating and wellness footprints above. Ask about hours and early setup where the spaces overlap.

    Why we flag this

    The selected ship diagrams place Lido public areas above portions of the accommodation deck. This flags a vertical relationship, not every room on the deck or a confirmed disturbance report. Check the source plan.

  • Deck 6 above occupied Deck 5 areas

    Check Deck 6 over public venues

    Compare the cabin to entertainment, theatre, dining, bar, gallery and public circulation footprints below. Confirm category-specific view restrictions and any room symbols separately with the operator.

    Why we flag this

    The official plan places major public facilities beneath portions of this accommodation deck and includes the complete category and room-symbol legend in the PDF. This is layout-based advice, not measured noise data. Check the source plan.

Volendam: good & bad cabin FAQs

Which cabins are good choices on Volendam?

For the “Official plan” plan, start with these quieter-location candidates: Deck 2 where cabins overlap on Decks 1 and 3: Start with a room that has accommodation immediately above and below, away from lift lobbies, stairs, connecting doors and service access. Also check the outdoor promenade footprint on Deck 3 above; accommodation overlap does not remove all footfall exposure. Compare the exact cabin with the decks above and below, nearby lifts and connecting doors. These are layout-based suggestions, not a guarantee of quiet.

Which cabins should I avoid or check carefully on Volendam?

For the “Official plan” plan, review these flagged locations before booking: Deck 7 below occupied Deck 8 areas: Match the exact room to pools, whirlpools, buffet/dining, outdoor seating and wellness footprints above. Ask about hours and early setup where the spaces overlap. Deck 6 above occupied Deck 5 areas: Compare the cabin to entertainment, theatre, dining, bar, gallery and public circulation footprints below. Confirm category-specific view restrictions and any room symbols separately with the operator. These flags are not measured noise reports or a warning about every room on a deck. Read the sourced cabin advice for the evidence and any explicit operator warnings.

How can I check whether a cabin is under a pool, nightclub or theatre?

Find the cabin on the selected plan, then compare the same fore-and-aft position on the deck above and below. Check the full venue footprint, including outdoor seating, stages, service areas and entrances. Nearby activity can be a reason to investigate, but does not by itself prove a cabin is noisy. Use the cabin advice and its sources to distinguish layout cautions from operator warnings.

Where can I find Volendam deck plans?

Use this guide’s deck selector to compare the decks around your cabin and open available diagrams in the zoom viewer. The full ship PDF and source links are listed for each plan edition.

Which deck-plan edition applies to my sailing?

Select your sailing date before comparing cabin locations. Editions can change after a refit. These answers use “Official plan”, reviewed 2026-10-22. Use the exact sailing edition and confirm cabin category, view, connecting doors, accessibility and refit configuration with Holland America. Date gaps between published editions are preserved; a gap is not covered by either diagram. Spatial cautions are not verified noise reports.
