Is Crystal Cruises for you?
Crystal Cruises is a top-of-the-line luxury cruise line, ideal for discerning world travelers who enjoy the spaciousness and choices available on a larger cruise ship, the best service at sea, exquisite dining experiences, and a sophisticated ambience. Crystal Cruise Line has earned back-to-back " World's Best" awards from readers of Conde Nast Traveler consistently for well over a dozen consecutive years, and from Travel + Leisure -- more than any other cruise line, hotel or resort. More about Crystal Cruises.
Crystal Cruise accommodations
By the standards of most luxury cruises, Crystal's ships are large, but Crystal accommodates about 1,000 guests on ships other large cruise lines build for up to 3,000 passengers. Crystal's ships are as spacious, if not more so, than most other luxury cruise ships, providing lots of elbow room. Suite categories come with butler service.
Staterooms are elegantly appointed, featuring Egyptian cotton linens, duvet covers and bath towel, marble-appointed bathrooms, a menu of pillow options. Both lightweight kimonos and plush Frette bathrobes are in your stateroom, as are complimentary soft drinks and bottled water. For your in-stateroom entertainment are a TV, DVD and CD players.
Crystal Serenity & Crystal Symphony dining
Exquisite dining is a hallmark of Crystal Cruises. Crystal offers flexible dining with either open seating by reservation or early or late fixed seating. Worth noting, Crystal Cruises only serves sustainable fresh seafood onboard -- the first cruise line to make such a commitment. Crystal is also the first to feature Cheese Sommeliers onboard its ships.
In addition to the excellent main dining room, there are two superb alternative dining restaurants. Prego, for fine Italian cuisine, features the menus of Piero Selvaggio, notable Los Angeles restauranteur of Valentino's, rated one of the best Italian restaurants in the city. Nobu (Crystal Serenity) and Silk Road (Crystal Symphony), features the creations of Master Chef Nobuyuki "Nobu" Matsuhisa, whose Nobu-trained chefs work in the restaurants. (A dinner here would easily fetch $250 in his restaurants ashore.)
Crystal Cruises also offers casual lunchtime meals poolside, as well as excellent buffet service for breakfast and lunch, the French-style Bistro cafe, and formal tea service. Private gourmet meals paired with select (and in some cases very rare) wines are optionally offered in the Vintage Room.
A day onboard a Crystal cruise
Crystal cruises includes complimentary non-alcoholic beverages and onboard activities such as yoga, cooking classes and wine tastings that many other lines charge for. Diverse engagement opportunities include taking courses from The Creative Learning Institute, which offers instruction from partners like Yamaha, Berlitz, Tai Chi Cultural Center, The Cleveland Clinic and The Society of Wine Educators.
A wide variety of computer classes and workshops are offered by Computer University @ Sea, featuring 32-inch LED screen iMac workstations, and include: Computers 101, Digital Photo Finishing, Creating Greeting Cards, Microsoft Office, Web Page Design and more. A Technology Concierge can help you with the latest gadgets.
Whether on a Crystal world cruise or shorter itinerary in the Mediterranean, Crystal is well-known for the incredible luxury found aboard their ships including the feng-shui-inspired spa. Fitness seekers will enjoy the Nordic Walking Pole program, aerobics, Pilates and yoga classes, outdoor lap pool, Kinesis machines, full-size paddle tennis court, golf driving range, putting green and PGA instructors, and a fully-equipped fitness center.
At night, enjoy the casino or some of the best full-production shows at sea, dancing, performances by emerging artists from LA's Music Center, pianist-singers at Avenue Saloon, and more.
Crystal Cruises ashore
Crystal's land-based tour programs have evolved alongside the excellent onboard product. Crystal's cruisetours provide enriching and unique shore-side experiences. In addition to more traditional shoreside excursions, some of the exciting land-based adventure tour programs include hiking Mt. Kilimanjaro, an excursion in Tibet, bob-sledding an Olympic trail, flying a Russian MIG plane, or even custom-tailored experiences on a Crystal Private Adventure tour.
You Care, We Care: preserving and giving back
In a further commitment to the destinations it visits, in 2011 every Crystal cruise will feature at least one excursion where guests can participate in a local charitable project, with Crystal paying for transportation and logistical support.
