Luxury cruises are on the rise, and it seems unstoppable. Over the past ten years, there has been a 23% growth in cruise vacations over their onshore counterparts. This growth has been aided by the fact that 80% of people who have taken a cruise say they would come back again. And with the ever-growing array of perks available to luxury travelers, who can blame them?
Personal chef service
Chefs on luxury cruise ships will respond to your personal dining desires. Would you like to try Capri’s famous ravioli caprese while floating in the island’s crystal clear waters? The ship’s multi-skilled crew will bring it back to life for you.
Butler service that belongs in a luxury home
The majority of luxury cruises will have an employee who will be in charge of, well, everything you need during your cruise, from sending postcards to planning in-room cocktail parties. They will also take your luggage straight to your room and straight to your car when you drop off.
Living hypoallergenic
Dealing with allergies on vacation can destroy that care-free feeling and not work for me. The luxury liners offer the option to book a completely allergen-free room, meaning you can enjoy the luxury experience to the fullest.
Poolside luxury
When you’re on a luxury cruise, you don’t just relax by the pool—you get a full-size spa service. Whether you’re just looking for a manicure or a full-body massage, Ship Ship’s team of masseuses and estheticians has you covered.
endless games
A lot of cruise ships also offer an endless choice of games, while you are booking your cruise you can choose that and pre-book the casino or get a membership that lasts during the cruise.
Happy hour at any hour
Many luxury cruise ships include unlimited drinks as part of your cabin price, which means you can kick back and enjoy a glass of champagne as the sun goes down. You are on vacation, after all.
The key to enjoying your cruise vacation is booking the right cruise. Make sure you look around before making your reservation. This is a bit of an indulgence, and you need to make sure you get a vacation that works for you. Whether you want to take a river cruise, sail around the Mediterranean, or even take a world tour, do some research and make sure your cruise takes you where you want to go.
