🛳️ At Sea Onboard Ambience
For 40 nights, Ambience will be your home from home, offering a warm, welcoming atmosphere and plenty to enjoy on sea days. With space for around 1,400 guests, the ship feels spacious without ever being overwhelming. Dining options include five restaurants, such as the main Buckingham Restaurant and the more casual Borough Market buffet, plus speciality venues like Saffron and Chef’s Table for something a bit more refined. There are also nine bars and lounges to choose from, including The Purple Turtle Pub and Raffles Bar - ideal spots for a quiet drink or a catch-up with new friends.
When it comes to entertainment and relaxation, Ambience has plenty to keep you busy. Enjoy West End-style shows in The Palladium, live music and scenic views from The Observatory, or a film in the cinema. There’s a swimming pool and two hot tubs on deck, plus a gym, wellness centre and salon if you fancy a bit of pampering. You’ll also find a crafting studio, card room, library, shopping galleria, and regular enrichment talks and activities. Whether you're looking to unwind, stay active, or get involved in something new, life at sea aboard Ambience offers something for everyone.
🌟 Cruise Highlights: Havana, St. Lucia & Ocho Rio
Havana, Cuba
There’s nowhere quite like Havana. This iconic city is bursting with life, colour, and character - where classic 1950s American cars cruise past crumbling colonial mansions and live music spills onto the cobbled streets. Your time here offers the chance to explore the historic heart of the city, from Revolution Square to the charming lanes of Old Havana, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Whether you're sipping a mojito in Hemingway’s favourite bar, marvelling at the architecture, or soaking up the rhythm of the local music, Havana is a destination you’ll never forget.
Castries, St. Lucia
St. Lucia is simply stunning - and Castries puts you in the perfect spot to experience it. This lush island is known for its volcanic peaks, the Pitons, which rise dramatically from the sea and make for postcard-perfect views. You might choose to relax on a palm-fringed beach, wander local markets, or take a scenic drive through banana plantations and fishing villages. For the adventurous, there’s the chance to visit sulphur springs, botanical gardens, or even take a boat ride along the coast. However you spend your time, St. Lucia leaves a lasting impression with its mix of beauty and charm.
Ocho Rios, Jamaica
Jamaica brings a different energy altogether - laid-back, vibrant, and full of soul. In Ocho Rios, one of the island’s most popular resort towns, you’ll find golden beaches and a backdrop of jungle-covered hills. A highlight for many is a visit to Dunn’s River Falls, where you can climb the tiered limestone cascades or simply enjoy the views. The town itself is full of local flavour, from reggae beats to jerk chicken stalls. Whether you choose to explore or just relax, Ocho Rios offers a fun and tropical slice of Jamaica that’s hard not to fall in love with.
