Pricing
Drink prices on a Holland America cruise are estimated and do not include the 18% gratuity. A domestic beer typically costs $8-$9, while a premium beer is $9-$12. Wine by the glass is generally $11-$17, and a standard cocktail is $12-$17, with signature and frozen drinks being slightly more expensive. Non-alcoholic drinks range from $4-$5 for soda and bottled water to $5-$10 for specialty coffee and mocktails. Holland America also offers beverage packages that cover drinks up to a certain price limit.
Attire
Smart casual attire, such as dresses, collared shirts, or slacks, is recommended for lounge bars like Explorers Lounge after 9:00 PM. Casual attire is acceptable during daytime hours for non-alcoholic drinks.
How to reserve
If you choose to wait, you can purchase a beverage package once you've boarded the ship. On embarkation day, you can inquire about packages at any bar on board or at a designated sales table, often found on the Lido Deck or near the main dining room. You will be able to purchase the package for the entire duration of your cruise, but it's important to do so on the first or second day of your sailing. Keep in mind that all adults of legal drinking age in the same stateroom are required to purchase the same alcoholic beverage package.
How to purchase
To pre-purchase your drink package for Rolling Stone Lounge, you can log in to your account on the Holland America Line website, navigate to your cruise booking, and select the "Manage My Cruise" or "Onboard Gifts & Activities" section. You will find the available beverage packages listed there, and you can add one to your booking and pay for it in advance. This is often the recommended method, as it ensures the package is ready for you upon embarkation and can sometimes offer a slightly better price than purchasing it on the ship.
Age restrictions
Rolling Stone Lounge is restricted to guests 21 and older after 9:00 PM due to live rock music and alcohol service. Daytime performances, if scheduled, are open to all ages with adult supervision for minors.
