Cruise
Ship: Black Prince
DESCRIPTION
A ship, in short, whose classic cruising formula (and
an ability to reach ports of call inaccessible to many larger vessels)
continues to earn her a growing following of both regular and new
admirers. Travellers for whom the packaged uniformity and overwhelming
glitz of many of today's impersonal 1,000 cabin leviathans hold little
appeal. SVF Cruises can offer some great deals
and Fred
Olsen discount cruises.
FACILITIES
Club-like conviviality
With just 241 cabins, Black Prince upholds a timeless cruising tradition
with an engaging personality and intimate convivial mood all her
own. Her style and scale engender a friendly, club-like ambience
in which to feel instantly at home - much more the welcome guest
than a mere cabin number!
Gracious informality
A vital element of Black Prince's unique character is the sense of
space, good taste and warmth you'll find aboard, accentuated by
the soft hues of a graceful, carefully co-ordinated décor.
Creating a civilised atmosphere that perfectly epitomises the values
and priorities of her passengers. Black Prince makes a reassuring
oasis of comfort to return to at the end of a day's visit ashore.
Dining in style
The best traditions of fine dining at sea are honoured by the superb
cuisine awaiting you aboard. Whether the venue is the informal
conservatory-style Balblom Restaurant for lunch, or the elegant
evening setting of the Fleur de Lys or Royal Garter Restaurants,
you'll enjoy tempting culinary encounters with menus designed to
ensure that your palate, too, enjoys a holiday to remember!
The sporting life
One thing you'll certainly have no problem in spending aboard Black
Prince is - energy! There's an impressive indoor health, fitness
and beauty centre (complete with its own pool) - as well as the
Lido Deck outdoor pool, Jacuzzis, and extensive deck space offering
quoits, chess and other shipboard pastimes. But most original of
all is the unique Marina Outdoor Leisure Centre, set on a purpose-built
pontoon deck at sea level and from where, when the ship is at anchor
and local conditions are favourable you can enjoy speedboats, inflatables,
waterskiing, windsurfing, and dinghy sailing.
Showtime
As evening falls the less demanding pleasures of the Lido Lounge
and Bar await, or the tranquil Aquitaine Lounge - a perfect retreat
for those quieter momen
