Azamara Club Cruises reviews

\r\n <figcaption class=\"figure-caption p-3 bg-light rounded-bottom shadow-sm\">\r\n Azamara Journey - Photo courtesy of Azamara Club Cruises\r\n <\/figcaption>\r\n <\/figure>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\n<p>With its boutique-hotel appeal, upscale dining options, and unique Destination Immersion program, <i>Azamara Journey<\/i> lives up to the cruise line's reputation for contemporary elegance and engaging travel experiences. While cruisers can enjoy traditional onboard amenities, such as <i>Journey's<\/i> small casino and its full-service Sanctum Spa, the ship's true focus is on the destination. Avid learners will appreciate <i>Journey's<\/i> enrichment programs, which include culinary demonstrations, wine tastings, and port-of-call lectures, with many designed to offer insights into the destination countries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Shipboard entertainment centers around vibrant, cabaret-style shows, including Come Sail Away; Jump, Jive and Swing; and Just Dance. Live entertainment is also available at 54 Below at Sea, an intimate Big Apple-style lounge where guest performers may include musicians, magicians, comedians, and ventriloquists. For travelers who wish to stay active, the ship offers a fitness center, jogging track, and an assortment of head-to-head tournaments, such as ping-pong, darts, and soft archery. <i>Journey<\/i> also provides ample opportunity for cruisers who wish to engage in retail therapy at the ship's signature shops.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey itineraries and departure ports<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>With longer stays in port, country-focused itineraries, and exciting shore excursions, cruisers on <i>Azamara Journey<\/i> can immerse themselves in the exciting regions they're visiting. <i>Journey's<\/i> size also allows access to ports that larger ships can't reach. The vessel sails to a multitude of inspiring destinations worldwide, with itineraries that take it to Europe, the Caribbean, Australia, and the Middle East, including specialty voyages, such as a 10-night Northern Capitals voyage, a 12-night British Isles golf-themed trip, and a 9-night European wine and cuisine tour.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>This ship is best for:<\/b> Offering in-depth explorations of exotic lands and stops at less-traveled ports, <i>Azamara Journey<\/i> appeals to cruisers looking to fully engage with the culture and customs of the places they're visiting. <i>Journey's<\/i> Destination Immersion program supplements onshore excursions with customized dining options and onboard experiences, including expert talks on subjects related to the ship's ports of call.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>You should know:<\/b> <i>Journey's<\/i> destination-focused cruises won't appeal to families seeking an active at-sea experience. Travelers with children\u00a0 who want varied entertainment, activity, and dining options should explore offerings on cruise lines such as Royal Caribbean, that have larger, newer ships.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Activities on <i>Azamara Journey<\/i><\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>From yesteryear beats to a celebration of dance and a musical voyage around the world, Journey features a variety of vibrant, Cabaret-style shows. The entertainment continues at 54 Below at Sea, which offers magic, comedy, and music in an intimate Big Apple-style lounge setting. When possible, <i>Azamara Journey<\/i> also brings local talent onboard for special performances that give cruisers a taste of local culture and music.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>For travelers who prefer to court Lady Luck, Journey includes a small casino, where cruisers can play the slots or enjoy a round of blackjack. The ship also boasts a full-service spa, several bars and lounges, and a variety of enrichment programs, including destination-focused expert talks on topics such as wildlife conservation, sustainable agriculture, and insider tips for enhancing onshore visits.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey ship highlights<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>The Sanctum Spa<\/li>\r\n<li>Cabaret-style shows, including Come Sail Away; Jump, Jive and Swing; and Just Dance<\/li>\r\n<li>Discoveries Lounge and Bar<\/li>\r\n<li>eConnections 24-hour computer room<\/li>\r\n<li>Looking Glass observation lounge and bar<\/li>\r\n<li>Jogging track<\/li>\r\n<li>Pool area with an outdoor swimming pool, 2 whirlpools, and a bar<\/li>\r\n<li>Destination-focused enrichment programs<\/li>\r\n<li>Aqualina Italian restaurant<\/li>\r\nv54 Below at Sea lounge<\/li>\r\n<li>Prime C steak and seafood restaurant<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey cabins<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>From basic Club Interior staterooms to luxury suites, <a href=https://cruiseline.com/"https:////cruiseline.com//ship//azamara-journey//cabins/">Journey's elegant accommodations<\/a> offer travelers the amenities of a boutique hotel. Refurbished in 2016, all cabins feature comfortable cotton sheets, French toiletries, a large-screen TV, minibar, and a writing desk. Picture windows fill Club Oceanview staterooms with natural light, while Club Veranda staterooms include private, furnished balconies. Most cabins have two twin beds that convert easily to a queen, and some staterooms provide a sofa bed to sleep additional family members. Suite guests enjoy even more perks, including formal butler service.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In 2020, Azamara will add a new class of cabin: Club Veranda Plus staterooms. Cruisers who choose this option will experience all the perks of a Club Veranda stateroom plus enhanced amenities, such as priority embarkation, free internet, and complimentary specialty dining one night of the cruise.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey dining<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>As part of Azamara's Destination Immersion program, restaurant menus feature cuisine from ports of call, spotlighting exclusive, local flavors and fresh ingredients at Discoveries Restaurant, the ship's upscale main dining room. For al fresco dining, The Patio is the place to be. At dinnertime, it offers exclusive Destination Immersion options. For casual fare, cruisers can visit Windows Cafe for nightly themed dinners, which are often inspired by visited regions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Azamara Journey also offers several specialty venues, including Aqualina, which serves up authentic Italian recipes with pasta made from scratch. Mouthwatering steaks and seafood are on the menu at Prime C, and cruisers enjoy exquisite views through the restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows while dining. Both specialty restaurants also offer vegan menus. Reservations are recommended.<\/p>","editorial_2":null,"meta_title":null,"meta_description":" \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n ","seo_meta_title":null,"seo_meta_description":null,"expedia_id":"410","rcl_id":null,"pic_cabins":"{\"id\":14197,\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/shipmedia.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com\\\/cabin\\\/azamara_325\\\/325_665_cab_ss_320.jpg\",\"name\":\"325_665_cab_ss_320\",\"ship_id\":665,\"width\":320}","pic_dining":"{\"id\":2021,\"name\":\"Aqualina\",\"ship_id\":665,\"features\":\"[\\\"<b>Seating Times: <\\\\\\\/b>6:00 - 9:30 PM.\\\",\\\"<b>Dress: <\\\\\\\/b>We suggest resort casual.

While cruisers can enjoy traditional onboard amenities, such as <i>Journey's<\/i> small casino and its full-service Sanctum Spa, the ship's true focus is on the destination. Avid learners will appreciate <i>Journey's<\/i> enrichment programs, which include culinary demonstrations, wine tastings, and port-of-call lectures, with many designed to offer insights into the destination countries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Shipboard entertainment centers around vibrant, cabaret-style shows, including Come Sail Away; Jump, Jive and Swing; and Just Dance. Live entertainment is also available at 54 Below at Sea, an intimate Big Apple-style lounge where guest performers may include musicians, magicians, comedians, and ventriloquists. For travelers who wish to stay active, the ship offers a fitness center, jogging track, and an assortment of head-to-head tournaments, such as ping-pong, darts, and soft archery. <i>Journey<\/i> also provides ample opportunity for cruisers who wish to engage in retail therapy at the ship's signature shops.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey itineraries and departure ports<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>With longer stays in port, country-focused itineraries, and exciting shore excursions, cruisers on <i>Azamara Journey<\/i> can immerse themselves in the exciting regions they're visiting. <i>Journey's<\/i> size also allows access to ports that larger ships can't reach. The vessel sails to a multitude of inspiring destinations worldwide, with itineraries that take it to Europe, the Caribbean, Australia, and the Middle East, including specialty voyages, such as a 10-night Northern Capitals voyage, a 12-night British Isles golf-themed trip, and a 9-night European wine and cuisine tour.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>This ship is best for:<\/b> Offering in-depth explorations of exotic lands and stops at less-traveled ports, <i>Azamara Journey<\/i> appeals to cruisers looking to fully engage with the culture and customs of the places they're visiting. <i>Journey's<\/i> Destination Immersion program supplements onshore excursions with customized dining options and onboard experiences, including expert talks on subjects related to the ship's ports of call.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>You should know:<\/b> <i>Journey's<\/i> destination-focused cruises won't appeal to families seeking an active at-sea experience. Travelers with children\u00a0 who want varied entertainment, activity, and dining options should explore offerings on cruise lines such as Royal Caribbean, that have larger, newer ships.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Activities on <i>Azamara Journey<\/i><\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>From yesteryear beats to a celebration of dance and a musical voyage around the world, Journey features a variety of vibrant, Cabaret-style shows. The entertainment continues at 54 Below at Sea, which offers magic, comedy, and music in an intimate Big Apple-style lounge setting. When possible, <i>Azamara Journey<\/i> also brings local talent onboard for special performances that give cruisers a taste of local culture and music.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>For travelers who prefer to court Lady Luck, Journey includes a small casino, where cruisers can play the slots or enjoy a round of blackjack. The ship also boasts a full-service spa, several bars and lounges, and a variety of enrichment programs, including destination-focused expert talks on topics such as wildlife conservation, sustainable agriculture, and insider tips for enhancing onshore visits.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey ship highlights<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>The Sanctum Spa<\/li>\r\n<li>Cabaret-style shows, including Come Sail Away; Jump, Jive and Swing; and Just Dance<\/li>\r\n<li>Discoveries Lounge and Bar<\/li>\r\n<li>eConnections 24-hour computer room<\/li>\r\n<li>Looking Glass observation lounge and bar<\/li>\r\n<li>Jogging track<\/li>\r\n<li>Pool area with an outdoor swimming pool, 2 whirlpools, and a bar<\/li>\r\n<li>Destination-focused enrichment programs<\/li>\r\n<li>Aqualina Italian restaurant<\/li>\r\nv54 Below at Sea lounge<\/li>\r\n<li>Prime C steak and seafood restaurant<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey cabins<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>From basic Club Interior staterooms to luxury suites, <a href=https://cruiseline.com/"https:////cruiseline.com//ship//azamara-journey//cabins/">Journey's elegant accommodations<\/a> offer travelers the amenities of a boutique hotel. Refurbished in 2016, all cabins feature comfortable cotton sheets, French toiletries, a large-screen TV, minibar, and a writing desk. Picture windows fill Club Oceanview staterooms with natural light, while Club Veranda staterooms include private, furnished balconies. Most cabins have two twin beds that convert easily to a queen, and some staterooms provide a sofa bed to sleep additional family members. Suite guests enjoy even more perks, including formal butler service.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In 2020, Azamara will add a new class of cabin: Club Veranda Plus staterooms. Cruisers who choose this option will experience all the perks of a Club Veranda stateroom plus enhanced amenities, such as priority embarkation, free internet, and complimentary specialty dining one night of the cruise.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey dining<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>As part of Azamara's Destination Immersion program, restaurant menus feature cuisine from ports of call, spotlighting exclusive, local flavors and fresh ingredients at Discoveries Restaurant, the ship's upscale main dining room. For al fresco dining, The Patio is the place to be. At dinnertime, it offers exclusive Destination Immersion options. For casual fare, cruisers can visit Windows Cafe for nightly themed dinners, which are often inspired by visited regions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Azamara Journey also offers several specialty venues, including Aqualina, which serves up authentic Italian recipes with pasta made from scratch. Mouthwatering steaks and seafood are on the menu at Prime C, and cruisers enjoy exquisite views through the restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows while dining. Both specialty restaurants also offer vegan menus.

\r\n <figcaption class=\"figure-caption p-3 bg-light rounded-bottom shadow-sm\">\r\n Azamara Journey - Photo courtesy of Azamara Club Cruises\r\n <\/figcaption>\r\n <\/figure>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\n<p>With its boutique-hotel appeal, upscale dining options, and unique Destination Immersion program, <i>Azamara Journey<\/i> lives up to the cruise line's reputation for contemporary elegance and engaging travel experiences. While cruisers can enjoy traditional onboard amenities, such as <i>Journey's<\/i> small casino and its full-service Sanctum Spa, the ship's true focus is on the destination. Avid learners will appreciate <i>Journey's<\/i> enrichment programs, which include culinary demonstrations, wine tastings, and port-of-call lectures, with many designed to offer insights into the destination countries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Shipboard entertainment centers around vibrant, cabaret-style shows, including Come Sail Away; Jump, Jive and Swing; and Just Dance. Live entertainment is also available at 54 Below at Sea, an intimate Big Apple-style lounge where guest performers may include musicians, magicians, comedians, and ventriloquists. For travelers who wish to stay active, the ship offers a fitness center, jogging track, and an assortment of head-to-head tournaments, such as ping-pong, darts, and soft archery. <i>Journey<\/i> also provides ample opportunity for cruisers who wish to engage in retail therapy at the ship's signature shops.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey itineraries and departure ports<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>With longer stays in port, country-focused itineraries, and exciting shore excursions, cruisers on <i>Azamara Journey<\/i> can immerse themselves in the exciting regions they're visiting. <i>Journey's<\/i> size also allows access to ports that larger ships can't reach. The vessel sails to a multitude of inspiring destinations worldwide, with itineraries that take it to Europe, the Caribbean, Australia, and the Middle East, including specialty voyages, such as a 10-night Northern Capitals voyage, a 12-night British Isles golf-themed trip, and a 9-night European wine and cuisine tour.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>This ship is best for:<\/b> Offering in-depth explorations of exotic lands and stops at less-traveled ports, <i>Azamara Journey<\/i> appeals to cruisers looking to fully engage with the culture and customs of the places they're visiting. <i>Journey's<\/i> Destination Immersion program supplements onshore excursions with customized dining options and onboard experiences, including expert talks on subjects related to the ship's ports of call.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>You should know:<\/b> <i>Journey's<\/i> destination-focused cruises won't appeal to families seeking an active at-sea experience. Travelers with children\u00a0 who want varied entertainment, activity, and dining options should explore offerings on cruise lines such as Royal Caribbean, that have larger, newer ships.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Activities on <i>Azamara Journey<\/i><\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>From yesteryear beats to a celebration of dance and a musical voyage around the world, Journey features a variety of vibrant, Cabaret-style shows. The entertainment continues at 54 Below at Sea, which offers magic, comedy, and music in an intimate Big Apple-style lounge setting. When possible, <i>Azamara Journey<\/i> also brings local talent onboard for special performances that give cruisers a taste of local culture and music.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>For travelers who prefer to court Lady Luck, Journey includes a small casino, where cruisers can play the slots or enjoy a round of blackjack. The ship also boasts a full-service spa, several bars and lounges, and a variety of enrichment programs, including destination-focused expert talks on topics such as wildlife conservation, sustainable agriculture, and insider tips for enhancing onshore visits.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey ship highlights<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>The Sanctum Spa<\/li>\r\n<li>Cabaret-style shows, including Come Sail Away; Jump, Jive and Swing; and Just Dance<\/li>\r\n<li>Discoveries Lounge and Bar<\/li>\r\n<li>eConnections 24-hour computer room<\/li>\r\n<li>Looking Glass observation lounge and bar<\/li>\r\n<li>Jogging track<\/li>\r\n<li>Pool area with an outdoor swimming pool, 2 whirlpools, and a bar<\/li>\r\n<li>Destination-focused enrichment programs<\/li>\r\n<li>Aqualina Italian restaurant<\/li>\r\nv54 Below at Sea lounge<\/li>\r\n<li>Prime C steak and seafood restaurant<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey cabins<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>From basic Club Interior staterooms to luxury suites, <a href=https://cruiseline.com/"https:////cruiseline.com//ship//azamara-journey//cabins/">Journey's elegant accommodations<\/a> offer travelers the amenities of a boutique hotel. Refurbished in 2016, all cabins feature comfortable cotton sheets, French toiletries, a large-screen TV, minibar, and a writing desk. Picture windows fill Club Oceanview staterooms with natural light, while Club Veranda staterooms include private, furnished balconies. Most cabins have two twin beds that convert easily to a queen, and some staterooms provide a sofa bed to sleep additional family members. Suite guests enjoy even more perks, including formal butler service.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In 2020, Azamara will add a new class of cabin: Club Veranda Plus staterooms. Cruisers who choose this option will experience all the perks of a Club Veranda stateroom plus enhanced amenities, such as priority embarkation, free internet, and complimentary specialty dining one night of the cruise.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Azamara Journey dining<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>As part of Azamara's Destination Immersion program, restaurant menus feature cuisine from ports of call, spotlighting exclusive, local flavors and fresh ingredients at Discoveries Restaurant, the ship's upscale main dining room. For al fresco dining, The Patio is the place to be. At dinnertime, it offers exclusive Destination Immersion options. For casual fare, cruisers can visit Windows Cafe for nightly themed dinners, which are often inspired by visited regions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Azamara Journey also offers several specialty venues, including Aqualina, which serves up authentic Italian recipes with pasta made from scratch. Mouthwatering steaks and seafood are on the menu at Prime C, and cruisers enjoy exquisite views through the restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows while dining. Both specialty restaurants also offer vegan menus. Reservations are recommended.<\/p>","editorial_2":null,"meta_title":null,"meta_description":" \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n ","seo_meta_title":null,"seo_meta_description":null,"expedia_id":"410","rcl_id":null,"pic_cabins":"{\"id\":14197,\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/shipmedia.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com\\\/cabin\\\/azamara_325\\\/325_665_cab_ss_320.jpg\",\"name\":\"325_665_cab_ss_320\",\"ship_id\":665,\"width\":320}","pic_dining":"{\"id\":2021,\"name\":\"Aqualina\",\"ship_id\":665,\"features\":\"[\\\"<b>Seating Times: <\\\\\\\/b>6:00 - 9:30 PM.\\\",\\\"<b>Dress: <\\\\\\\/b>We suggest resort casual.
