As SeaDream’s President says, “We are not a cruise line. We are a yacht company and we provide a yachting experience.” Yachting features an open and unstructured ambience that provides each guest the opportunity to enjoy it at their own pace and in their own style. They like to express this as “No clocks, no crowds, no lines, and no stress.” The key word for the SeaDream yachting experience is “unstructured”. It is all about personal choice, a free form holiday in which guests feel that they are aboard their own yacht. That is why they say, “It’s yachting, not cruising”.
Silversea Cruises
Silversea is a cruise company reflecting generations of maritime and travel experience. In the early 1990s, the Lefebvre family of Rome, former owners of Sitmar Cruises, conceived and organized a unique cruise company pledging to build and operate the highest-quality ships in the ultra-luxury segment. The name “Silversea” was chosen because it connotes quality and luxury as well as capturing the romance and special sensations of the sea. Silversea’s fleet was purpose-built for the ultra-luxury market, establishing a new class of smaller, intimate vessels that could slip into more exotic ports off the beaten path. The company’s elite vessels are specifically designed for fewer guests, more space and the highest levels of personalized service, delivered by Italian officers and European staff. All oceanview suites, most with private balcony, and open-seating dining options so guests dine when, where and with whom they desire, add to the very special ambiance created onboard. Silversea ships also incorporate the favorite amenities found on larger ships, such elaborate show lounges featuring nightly entertainment, casinos, a spa and state-of-the-art fitness facilities. As an innovator in the ultra-luxury segment, Silversea is the favorite among modern affluent travelers with its all-inclusive pricing and unmatched onboard product enhanced by partnerships with the world’s most respected luxury brands – Bvlgari, Moet & Chandon, Davidoff and Relais & Chateaux. Today, Silversea is recognized as the defining elite luxury experience and is regularly lauded by leading consumer and trade publications.
