A LITLE BIT OF LUXURY THAT WON’T BREAK YOUR BUDGET

When many of us dream of the perfect cruise, we imagine an incredible fantasy in a large suite, on board one of the major luxury lines with butler service, champagne flowing and all of the amenities. Our dream comes to an abrupt end when we take a long look at the price tag. O.K. so do we need to give up our dreams until we hit the Powerball? We don’t think so. There are some alternatives that you can employ to get a taste of luxury while you wait to hit the Big Time – so why wait?

 
Azamara Journey
 
Oceania Regatta

Have you tried an Oceania or Azamara Club Cruise? These are two lines that are priced right and give you great value while offering a Luxury experience. These former R-Ships offer unique itineraries only available to smaller ships with an intimate atmosphere that makes you feel as though you are on your own private yacht. Both lines offer professionally trained Butlers for exquisite service in all of their suites. Azamara also offers pre-paid gratuities and complimentary wine with dinner. Oceania includes economy air into the price of their cruises. Lots of added features on both lines. Luxury? - OH YES!! – Affordable? – ABSOLUTELY!!!


Silversea Silver Shadow

Ask about the many value laden travel opportunities available throughout the year on luxury lines such as Silversea. Unbelievable!





Oasis of the Seas Skyloft Suite

Maybe you would like to look at Suites on some of the popular Mass Market or Premium cruise lines. For example, we just toured the suites available on the Oasis class ships, Oasis of the Seas and Allure of the Seas, from Royal Caribbean and were most impressed. There are fabulous accommodations, some which will accommodate up to 14 guests, with many wonderful extra amenities. Ever thought about loft accommodations on a ship? AWESOME!! WHY NOT give them a try?? Luxury? You Decide. Affordable? – Absolutely Yes!!!
How about the new suite categories on board the Norwegian Epic with your own private pool, cabanas, dining areas and other exclusive amenities?

Have you heard of Celebrity’s new Solstice class ships? These ships feature Aqua Class “for those who have entered a spa and never wanted to leave”. Or – How about a lovely suite on board a Princess ship? Want to feel like Royalty? Order breakfast or a lobster dinner served on your balcony.


Want to consider other options? Ask us for recommendations. Think you have some opportunities to experience luxurious travel at affordable prices – ABSOLUTELY YES!!!

Don’t procrastinate. Did you know that many suite categories as well as family Oceanview and Balcony accommodations are usually the first to sell out? It’s True!

ALLURE OF THE SEAS IS HERE!

Allure of the Seas entering Miami harbor.
Hiya cruising enthusiasts. You may have seen the arrival of the Allure of the Seas on TV or in the newspaper today. Hoda Kotb and Kathy Lee Gifford will broadcast live from Allure tomorrow (11/19/2010) morning. How cool is that?

We’ll be aboard Allure for pre-inaugural and inaugural cruises from November 29 through December 5th. Watch our blog here or our FaceBook page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Gilbert-AZ/CruiseOne-Yvonne-and-Brad-Jamieson/171607622849805?ref=sgm for exciting news and views from Allure. Lots to come, Shrek, great new restaurants.

We are so pumped to be on the sister ship of Oasis of the Seas upon which we spent a wonderful New Year’s week earlier this year.

Although we don’t quite understand how, we hear the amenities and facilities on Allure surpass those of Oasis.

Stay tuned!

Brad and Yvonne
