a club continent suite.  Comes with butler and bar set up, and a bottle of champagne.  Nightly petit fours.  And afternoon tea service in your cabin if you like.

As other reviewer said, dreadful start but got better!
"00am so we were tired, hungry and thirsty - NOT a good first impression of Azamara ships, Sadly my balcony had an obscured view (I was NOT made aware of this when I booked) so was really disappointed when I get in my cabin.The buffet though wasn’t good - I only ate there twice and the food was tepid...."Read More

As embarkation goes, it has to be the worst in all my years cruising. There were only 550 odd of us but it over 2 hours in makeshift tents, fighting for seats, coffee and biscuits ran out and after we got on and did the mandatory safety briefing - the buffet had closed. We’d set off from Gatwick before 7.00am so we were tired, hungry and thirsty - NOT a good first impression of Azamara ...

Friends had been with Azamara on a number of occasions. We have been on many cruise ships, but were encouraged by the good reviews. We received no information about the cruise in anyway whatsoever until about 2 days before. Had to ring repeatedly. Very sad to hear Azamazing would not be taking place. It was one of the reasons we chose the cruise. We had 2 days in Rome hotel which was lovely, ...

Second time on this ship, first time post covid and hopes were high. I think it is important to differentiate between brands and definitions of ‘luxury small ship cruising’ before offering a fair review. Azamara offers small ship all-inclusive cruising in a boutique setting. This is NOT 6 star (hate that phrase anyway). If you are looking for the above with an all-suite, all-butler style ...

Azamara's tech upgrade is a nightmare. You cannot log into your record, even though they say that they are working on those pax within 30 days. Nope. After 4 hours on hold, I finally got a person who only abandoned the call. To add insult to injury I was beyond polite to her and never raised my voice. The upgrade wasn't her fault. However leaving my call was! The enormous headache is so ...

Looking for a smaller, more upscale cruise line to replace my favorite that is now in liquidation, I chose Azamara. I was not disappointed. It is a lovely, small ship that has been nicely updated and very well maintained. I was surprised by the truly exceptional service I received. Everyone from bartenders, to waiters, to entertainment crew, to guest services, the concierge, and my ...

Very Disappointing - Not a Luxury Cruise

We have sailed with Azamara 3 times before and selected the cruise on Pursuit as it went to Corsica and Sardinia 2 islands we had not been to. Lets start with the positives. We were in a continental suite on deck 8. It was OK. Pursuit had undergone a refurbishment and the fitted furniture in the suite had been replaced with Ikea style units. The suite is cramped compared with many of the newer ...

We chose this cruise as we had not seen the Amalfi Coast nor the five Mediterranean islands which were visited in the nine night voyage. Embarking in Rome and disembarking in Barcelona went smoothly .We also spent additional days in each location and recommend both these cities for those who have not visited them, Both are easy to get around on foot or by public transport and both are rich in ...

Well what does one say myself and my wife booked a Azamara cruise from Rome to Barcelona, from the embarkation to getting off at Barcelona we were treated just the best.. All I can say is if you are considering a cruise and is your first cruise , Azamara is or should be your first choice as you are 100% relaxed and looked after no ifs buts or maybe. Along with the White Night dinner and ...

We thoroughly enjoyed this cruise which we choose on the basis of small ship and ports of call. This turned out to be the correct decision on both counts. We boarded the ship in Civitavecchia (17/7/19) and we were in our cabin within 15 minutes and the cases arrived soon after. Our cabin (7007) was adequate for our needs with sufficient storage. As others have highlighted the 'bathroom' is small ...
