I was on the Nieuw Statendam 2X in February/March cruises to Caribbean. Ship was full. Under staffed, they do all they can, but way understaffed. MDR was very slow for breakfast and some dinner time slots. Ended up missing the shows due to dinner taking so long. It is a beautiful ship, but there is a distinct lack of seating for those with mobility issues in the areas you have to wait ~ Guest Services, MDR, at elevators. no benches or seating. long lines for everthing it seems. The tender process in Cayman was horrendous due to the rough water, we decided to just not get off the ship as our excursion was cancelled. They are doing the best they can, but I still prefer the smaller ships!
