Holland America - Nieuw Statendam Reviews

The cruise and the staff on the boat were great. The only downside was the seas were a bit rough at times.

It was wonderful!

obvious cutbacks in food and service made this a disappointing cruise. Hope things don't keep getting worse.

We loved our Holland America cruise.

Great to be cruising again, nice safe cruise with minimal changes

However, Michelle Reynolds was superb! She deserves a medal for her professionalism.

Staff onboard were fantastic, exceptional cleanliness and precautions were taken and appreciated in light of the Corona virus outbreak. The cruise itself was perfect. We had great food, entertainment and excursions. The only downside was an unfortunate death onboard the ship that kept us detained for good reason when we arrived back in Ft. Lauderdale. We did miss our flight and had to leave the next day. We were notified just recently of one case of a passenger who had the Corona virus onboard our ship. The staff onboard continued to serve us after we were detained as well as be very encouraging and helpful.

Crew and Staff were excellent, ship clean and sanitized frequently. Still very stressful worrying about virus and if we would be allowed off the ship.

We did not get notification until we had already flown to FLL so we did go on the cruise. Could not anchor at Half Moon Cay due to high seas so that was disappointing but the crew was extremely diligent with protecting us against illness so made the cruise enjoyable even with so much publicity occurring.

The Statendam has been in use for a little over a year. It is a very beautiful ship and very modern with all the conveniences. I had done a back to back from the Zuiderdam. The Zuiderdam is a beautiful ship too. I found the staff and stewards much nicer on the Zuiderdam.

I have been on 13 cruises with other cruise lines. It was strongly recommend it by a girlfriend to try Holland America. I did and it was definitely a superior cruise line in all ways particularly the cleanliness and the food quality!!

We had a fantastic time on almost every excursion.

loved the boat but there wasn't enough to do onboard

It was one of the best 28 cruises that i have taken.Food was exellent and the selection and quality suberb. Cleaness of the the ship was a step above many cruiships. We loved the decor inside the ship and the layout. Chaits by the pool haf a nicr cushing ' which made very comfortable at night when we wat h the moovies. Oh the popcorn and snacks at night wonderfull. Rum and raisin icecream the best in the eaffle cones yummy. Nice entertainment something for everyone. Great exprience.
