What Creators Are Saying About Nieuw Statendam
And for cruisers who care more about elegance and comfort than water slides and neon lights, she is often the exact ship they have been searching for.

The final verdict is the new Statendam is definitely a better ship than what she was a year ago. It has better food, better service, and the music is still exceptional.
