The deluxe 5-star ship MS AmaVida offers state-of-the-art public rooms and elegant cabins which, combined with included excursions, quality cuisine and local wine, beer and soft drinks with lunch and dinner, will make your cruise memorable.
Cabins
There are 51 exquisitely decorated cabins offering all the
amenities of a fine hotel with plush white-on-white bedding, full
marble en-suite bathrooms, hairdryer, safe, terry bathrobes,
individually controlled air conditioning and ample wardrobe space.
The cabins have either twin or double beds and the cabins on the
Douro deck have panoramic windows. All cabins on the Lisbon and
Porto Decks have full-length windows with balconies. All cabins
include an entertainment system which provides music, films, TV and
complimentary internet access.
Public Rooms & Facilities
The vessel's many amenities include a fitness room, a heated pool
and massage spa. The main panorama bar and lounge has floor to
ceiling windows, comfortable seating, a complimentary tea/coffee
station and a piano, and offers nightly entertainment and a dance
floor. The large Sun Deck has plenty of loungers on which to relax
and admire the unimpeded views of the magnificent Douro scenery,
and there is a lift between some decks.
Dining
Dining on board is a truly superb experience. Lavish gourmet
breakfast buffets, including a rich assortment of pastries, fresh
fruit or something more traditional are followed by mouthwatering
lunches including homemade soups, a selection of main courses and
desserts. In the evening, you will enjoy a four course dinner or a
traditional theme night with a range of regional specialities and
wines, as well as various onshore dinners as described. Breakfasts
and lunches are casual, and dinner can be either a casual al fresco
affair on the Sun Deck, or a more formal, waiter served single
sitting. There are Captain's Welcome and Farewell Receptions where
a jacket for men and ladies' equivalent is recommended.
