The name "Silversea" was chosen because it connotes quality and luxury as well
as capturing the romance and special sensations of the sea. As an innovator in
the ultra-luxury segment, Silversea quickly became the favourite among modern
affluent travellers with its all-inclusive pricing, and unmatched onboard product
enhanced by partnerships with the world's most respected luxury brands
--Bvlgari, Davidoff and Relais & Châteaux.
Year after year, Silversea receives the highest awards from authoritative
guidebooks and prestigious publications on both sides of the Atlantic. Among the
many awards and accolades consistently received, Silversea has been named number
one in Condé Nast Traveler's Readers' Choice Awards, received a coveted "Six
Stars" from Fielding's Guide to Worldwide Cruises and was named "World's Best
Small Ship Cruise Line" by Travel + Leisure. Here's why:
Onboard Experience Silversea ships are like intimate and exclusive resorts. When you retreat to
your suite, you'll revel in the space, privacy and fine appointments. More than
80% of Silversea suites have private teak verandas where you can watch the world
go by. Crisp bed linens, plush bathrobes, Bvlgari toiletries and personalized
stationery; nothing has been overlooked. Intimate public rooms on their ships
are conducive to meeting your fellow guests. The atmosphere is relaxing and
inviting, much like that of a fine private home.
Uncompromising Commitment to Service Silversea's service is simply the
world's best. It is a philosophy, an attitude - complemented by distinctive
European style and inherent in all that we do. Achieving perfection is driven by
their desire to please. To see you smile. It begins the moment you step aboard
with a warm welcome and a flute of champagne, and follows throughout your voyage
with an unspoken anticipation of your needs. Sailing on Silversea's intimate
ships is like visiting a friend's home; you're greeted by name and your personal
preferences are always remembered.
All Inclusive Value Aboard Silversea's ships, you will find all the
things you love most about cruising, plus one more distinctive benefit:
Silversea's unmatched, all-inclusive value.
Other cruise lines claim to offer one truly all-inclusive fare. Yet only
Silversea covers virtually every little detail, such as your gratuities and port
charges. All beverages including, wines, champagnes, and spirits are
complimentary everywhere throughout the ship. They even treat you to a
complimentary shore side event, The Silversea Experience, on many sailings.
Entertainment and Activities Designing your day is up to you. With neither schedules nor routines to hem you
in, choosing what you want to do and when you want to do it are the most
difficult daily decisions you'll have to make.
Your Silversea ship offers many activities for you to participate in. Join a
culinary demonstration and learn some professional secrets from our own chefs,
as well as renowned visiting Relais & Châteaux chefs. Join fellow guests in
the card room for a game of contract bridge. Check out a good book or a stack of
videos from The Library and retreat to your suite. Attend an enlightening
presentation by a guest lecturer and learn more about the region you're
visiting.
Because Silverseas knows you crave new experiences, they offer many
opportunities to explore new areas. Learn a new language, brush up on your dance
steps, take part in a stimulating book discussion or delve into the subtleties
of wine appreciation.
If sports figures prominently in your day's activities, practice your golf
putting, compete in the water volleyball competition or join an aqua aerobics
class. Of course for some, lazing by the pool, a cool drink in hand, is exercise
enough.
Mandara Spa Program The name "Mandara" comes from ancient Sanskrit
legend about the God's quest to find the elixir of immortality and eternal
youth. Mandara Spa, originating in Bali, has embraced the legend with over 50
spas worldwide. On Silversea, they have developed unique and exotic spa
treatments including treatments from the UK's most innovative spa brand, Elemis,
to reflect the beauty, spirit and traditions of Bali. Silversea cannot promise
immortality, but when you experience one of their unique treatments, you will
feel as if you can live forever.
Silversea Cruises was voted the World's Best Spa at Sea by the readers of
CondeNast Traveller magazine. Their spa menus include a wide array of choices for
facials, body rituals, massages, salon services and personalized fitness
programs.
The Dining Experience As your ship changes latitude and longitude, Silverseas' menus change to reflect
the flavours of the region. The main event: inspired dining. Step into The
Restaurant and you know you've arrived for a very special dining experience. The
Restaurant is elegant, but not stuffy. The European-trained waiters are
attentive and personable. The finest wines from an extensive list are carefully

silverware is laid on crisp linens.
