Leisure & Facilites

So much to do and never enough time! On deck you can enjoy running on the jogging track, a swim in the pool, a laze in the whirlpool or maybe a game of tennis, volleyball or shuffleboard. The gym is available if you fancy a work–out or you can join one of the aerobic classes. The library is well–stocked with books and the cinema features a selection of recently released films as well as classic movies. Also available is the shopping boutiques, a video arcade, a card room and an internet cafe.

Pampering on board

For the body

Fitness instructors are on hand at all times to ensure that you get the most from the health equipment and exercise classes available to you. They are both friendly and knowledgable so if there is anything you need just ask.

The onboard salon will cater for all your beauty treatment needs. From manicures, pedicures and haircuts to massages and cleansing facials. The jacuzzi, sauna and steam room are also on hand to ensure that you can fully unwind.

For the mind

The enrichment-at-sea programmes are designed to stimulate even the greatest of minds. Lessons, lectures and seminars are available daily and include topics such as languauge, cooking, computers, industry, history, acdemics, art, music, literature, health, food and wine, amongst others.

Dining

There are several dining options to choose from onboard. Breakfast can be taken in the restaurant or, alternatively, why not enjoy a lazy lie–in followed by brunch delivered to your stateroom? Lunch can be taken by the pool from the grill or pizzeria and, if you're feeling peckish, a variety of snacks are available throughout the afternoon and evening.

In the spirit of Italy, dinner onboard is always a special occasion. Traditional Italian cuisine is accompanied by a good wine list and attentive service. During the famous seven-course dinner menu, you will have the opportunity to experience classic Italian favourites as well as local cuisine based upon your port of call – all washed down with tiramisu and a cappuccino or espresso! If you're celebrating a special occasion whilst onboard, make sure to tell your waiter. For those that are never full, the midnight buffet ensures that you won't go hungry until morning!

Evening Entertainment

Evening entertainment consists of live bands playing in the lounges, nightly shows and the casino where you can try your luck at poker, roulette or blackjack.
