![]() (Press Release) Seattle, Wash., June 5, 2025 — As a recognized leader in premium cruising, Holland America Line is celebrated for award-winning service, world-class dining, exceptional itineraries and perfectly sized ships. Now the brand is focusing on the unexpected — the qualities it proudly doesn’t possess — to celebrate why traveling by sea with Holland America Line in the Caribbean is truly different in a new “Refreshingly Free” campaign and offer, including savings of up to 40% off. The “Refreshingly Free” campaign highlights what the cruise line has never been in the Caribbean: oversized ships, amusement parks at sea, overcrowded beaches and decks, and more. Instead, guests enjoy the art of leisurely travel that enables them to relax and connect to the world and each other on a fleet of perfectly sized ships.
“For more than 150 years, Holland America Line has elevated travel by sea, and now we’re excited to spotlight what makes our brand so different in the Caribbean — the elements on board and ashore that truly set us apart for guests who seek an alternative to amusement parks and overcrowded spaces,” said Kacy Cole, chief marketing officer for Holland America Line. “We’re creating experiences too good to hurry through that reflect exactly what our guests want and what they’re happy to leave behind.” The new “Refreshingly Free” campaign juxtaposes more typical Caribbean cruise experiences with those of Holland America Line such as perfectly sized ships that offer guests the ultimate space to relax and connect with each other, including the cruise line’s new signature poolside experience. Additionally, the campaign highlights the brand’s Destination Dining and Global Fresh Fish Program, and its private island RelaxAway, Half Moon Cay, a secluded paradise known for its pristine beauty and white-sand beaches. ‘Travel By Sea’ Adds More Value to a Tropical Vacation “Refreshingly Free” elements are especially notable on Caribbean, Mexico and Panama Canal cruises, regions highlighted in Holland America Line’s new “Travel By Sea” promotion.
