Holland America Line has announced that it is on track to complete the series of major enhancements at its Holland America Denali Lodge property in time for the 2027 Cruisetour season, which is now open for booking.

The company said in a press release that the $70 million multi-year investment is underway, with many upgrades already finished.

The project will expand guest capacity while deepening the connection between Alaska cruising and overland exploration through Denali National Park.

In 2027, Holland America Line will offer a series of 19 Cruisetour options from May to September, ranging from nine to 17 nights. The itineraries combine a three- to seven-night Alaska cruise with an overland journey to Denali National Park and Canada’s Yukon Territory.

Every Cruisetour visits the park and includes a one- to three-night stay at Holland America Denali Lodge.

Final enhancements are underway and scheduled for completion ahead of the 2027 season, which will be Holland America’s 80th Anniversary exploring Alaska:

• Construction of two new guest buildings replacing older structures
• A refresh and redesign of the Main Lodge interiors and public spaces, and
• Full renovation of Grizzly Grind.

Improvements that have been completed at the lodge include:

• An enhanced riverside trail with new scenic viewpoints
• Improved on-site wayfinding
• Public space renovations and upgrades at the Cottonwood and Canyon Lodge guest room buildings
• The introduction of Outpost Coffee + Provisions, and
• Expanded seating at Karstens Public House.

Guests can now also enjoy a range of new culinary offerings throughout the property with menus redesigned by Chef Stowell throughout the property’s eateries:

• Outpost Coffee + Provisions features menu items including Smoked Salmon Bagel Sandwiches, Bison Chili and Reindeer
• Karstens Public House serves Alaska-inspired favorites such as Alaskan Halibut Fish & Chips, Smoked Salmon and Spinach Omelet, and
• Canyon Ridge Grill’s menu includes Dungeness Crab Cakes, Alder-Smoked Salmon Chowder, and Seared Weathervane Scallops.

For a limited time, when guests book a 2027 Alaska Cruisetour with the Have It All Early Booking Bonus, they receive free prepaid crew appreciation, a free Premium wi-fi upgrade, free Elite Beverage Package upgrade, up to $300 shore excursion credit and specialty dining.
