What Travelers Say About Nieuw Statendam
Reviews of the ship itself — the same for every Nieuw Statendam sailing. Based on 3,500 discussions.
Nieuw Statendam is the second of Holland America's Pinnacle-class ships and leans hard into the line's reputation for refined, music-forward cruising rather than thrills. At roughly 2,666 guests double-occupancy it sits comfortably in the mid-size bracket, lively at night across its multiple lounges yet rarely overwhelming. The vibe is unmistakably premium and adult-leaning, drawing 50+ couples from North America, the UK, the Netherlands and Australia who come for the Music Walk, enrichment programming and a calmer pace than the mega-ship lines.
What People Love
- Consistently strong dining for the premium segment - reviewers report no bad meals across Lido, MDR and specialty venues
- Pinnacle Grill (around $39pp) and Sel de Mer are genuine destination restaurants with USDA prime beef
- Music Walk concept is distinctive and all included in the fare: B.B. King's Blues Club, Billboard Onboard and Rolling Stone Rock Room
Common Complaints
- Beverages are not included - drink packages add significantly to the fare
- Specialty dining (Pinnacle Grill, Sel de Mer, Tamarind) carries extra cover charges
- Deck layout can be confusing to navigate, with venues split across forward and aft
