Holland America Line's newest Pinnacle-Class ship, Nieuw Statendam, is set to debut in December with eight more staterooms than sister-ship Koningsdam, as well as completely reimagined categories.

Notable enhancements include a redesigned Pinnacle Suite and reconfigured Family Staterooms. 2,666-guest Nieuw Statendam will carry over the innovations introduced on Koningsdam, such as single-cruiser accommodations, and a wider range of suite configurations.

"As with every new ship, we've listened to guest feedback and made our own assessments that have led to exciting changes to Nieuw Statendam that will enhance our stateroom experience across every category," said Orlando Ashford, Holland America Line's president.

"Staterooms should be a sanctuary for our guests, and they are going to appreciate the elegance, functionality and extra-special touches to be found on our newest ship."

Nieuw Statendam adds five more ocean-view and three more interior staterooms, bringing the total stateroom count to 1,339. The ship features 103 ocean-view and 280 interior staterooms, ranging from 225 to 266 square feet. The ship will have 851 verandah or verandah spa accommodations, bringing the total staterooms that have a verandah, including suites, to 912.

The 32 family ocean-view staterooms range from 222 to 231 square feet and have been reconfigured to feature more living space. The staterooms accommodate up to five guests, and feature amenities such as two bathrooms and extra closet space. Twelve single ocean-view staterooms for solo cruisers range from 127 to 172 square feet and are located on the forward main deck.

The 1,290 square-foot Pinnacle Suite features a bedroom, living room, dining area, dressing room and private verandah with whirlpool. A new configuration offers an open-concept design with the living room and dining area in one space.

Forty-three Neptune Suites and two Neptune Spa Suites range from 465 to 855 square feet. They include access to the private Neptune Lounge. The fleetwide lounges offer worktables, a large screen television, a library, sofas and chairs, concierge service and complimentary refreshments throughout the day.

Guests in Signature Suites and Vista suites receive special amenities, including oversized bath towels, fresh flowers, a pillow menu, mini bar and one-touch phone concierge service. While

Spa Suite, Verandah Spa, Outside Spa and Inside Spa stateroom are located near the Greenhouse Spa & Salon.

All staterooms feature USB ports, frameless glass shower doors plus the line's signature Mariner's Dream bed, among other amenities.
