I USED THE NOORDAM IN THE CARIBBEAN IN 2010. ALTHOUGH DANCING IS LIMITED BY THE SIZE OF THE FLOORS AND THE RIGID SONG BOOKS THAT THE BANDS USE, WE DANCED ALMOST EVERY NIGHT EITHER IN THE CULINARY ARTS CENTRE, THE OCEAN BAR OR THE CROWS NEST. ALTHOUGH I SAID THAT THE DANCING WAS LIMITED, MOSTLY CHA CHA AND RUMBA, WE REALLY ENJOYED THIS WONDERFUL SHIP. THE CAPTAIN IS POSSIBLY THE MOST ATTENTIVE AFLOAT, AND A REALLY NICE GUY.

On The Amsterdam, cruising round S America 3 years ago, we had a great dance band. They played dance favourites through the decades every night. So we waltzed, cha-chaed and bopped and jived from Rio to Santiago via Cape Horn. Great fun. If I remember correctly the band was Phillipino and the lead singer, a lady, had a great voice and great style. V enjoyable.

We went on a big band cruise on Holland America Nordam with the NICK ROSS ORCHESTRA. It was fabulous, dancing every night to a big band was fantastic. The Americans on board thought the band was great. But apparently they do no do these cruises now. Shame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would look at Cunard if you want Ballroom, Latin and Sequence Dancing

I agree,if you are wanting ballroom,latin and sequence dancing then Cunard would be your best choice by far.
