SEABOURN’S ULTRA-LUXURY MEDITERRANEAN

The Seabourn experience is unlike any other form of travel. It is luxurious, yet relaxed … elegant, yet casual … sumptuous, yet understated. A concept designed around an intimate boutique hotel, which happens to be at sea.

This is a world of ultra-luxury, where space is generous and crowds are few; where names and wine orders are remembered, preferences noted, and wishes granted before they are spoken.

Seabourn’s five intimate, all-suite ships will carry guests to the heart of great cities, exclusive yacht harbours and secluded coves.

Each ship features a world-class spa, inviting dining venues and lounges, pools and a unique retractable marina. Enticing activities may include fascinating Seabourn Conversations with guest experts from the fields of the arts, history, science and

UNESCO world heritage, while evenings offer entertainment including “An Evening with Sir Tim Rice” and music under the stars on deck.

With Seabourn, guests may choose from complimentary open dining venues that range from casual, alfresco to slightly more formal. The company has partnered with world-renowned Michelin three-star chef Thomas Keller, who has added his expertise and inspiration to menus and the signature “Grill by Thomas Keller”

In summer 2024, Seabourn guests may explore great cities such as Athens, Valletta and Istanbul, timeless island villages hugging tiny harbours on Mykonos, Spetsai and the shining white town of Thira cresting the cliffs of Santorini. They may take in the golden coasts of the Adriatic, including Dubrovnik’s red-tiled roofs and the majestic Kotor fjord. Discover ancient Delphi and Olympia in the Peloponnese; or walk in the steps of the ancients (and sip wine to classical music) in Ephesus.

For example, Seabourn Encore, offering 300 all-veranda suites will sail week-long eastern Mediterranean voyages from Athens (Piraeus), Istanbul and Venice. On a 7-night Greek Isles & Ephesus voyage, guests will sail through the beautiful Greek Islands, including Crete and Mykonos, Skopelos and Skíathos, as well as Cesme and Kuşadasi in Turkey, before arriving at Istanbul. The ship’s visit to Kuşadasi will feature Seabourn’s signature complimentary “Evening at Ephesus,” a private classical concert which takes place within the spectacular UNESCO site at sunset. On select itineraries, they may also enjoy a Marina Day with watersports when the ship is anchored off breathtaking islands such as Spetsai, Nydri and Monemvasia.

Seabourn Ovation will sail the breath-taking French & Italian Rivieras, as well as the cities of the Iberian coast, venturing as far west as Casablanca and Tangier in Morocco.

She slips into picturesque ports and hidden harbours, yet features amenities rivalling much larger ships, including sumptuously furnished living areas and restaurants, elegant settings for meals created under the guidance of chef Keller. To extend the culinary experience, guests may shop a bustling Sicilian market with an expert Seabourn chef as their guide, enjoying an insider’s look into unique regional produce, or they may explore the local wines of Tuscany and Provence with a local wine expert.

From the luxury of all suite accommodations to complimentary fine wines and spirits, and a no tipping policy, Seabourn exemplifies the definition of travelling well.
