Introduction
Azamara Cruises is a premium cruise line known for its intimate ships and immersive travel experiences. With smaller vessels, Azamara visits unique ports and stays longer in destinations—often overnight—allowing guests more time to explore local culture, cuisine, and history. The line focuses on destination-focused cruising, personalized service, and enriching shore experiences around the world.

The Fleet
Azamara Cruises’ fleet is made up of four intimate, boutique-style ships — Azamara Journey, Azamara Quest, Azamara Pursuit, and Azamara Onward — each carrying around 700 guests to create a more personal and relaxed cruise experience. These midsize vessels offer modern amenities while still being small enough to access unique ports and scenic waterways that larger ships often can’t reach.

Accommodation Choices
Azamara Cruises offers a range of comfortable and stylish accommodations to suit different preferences and budgets — from well-appointed staterooms to spacious luxury suites. Guests can choose interior and oceanview options at the entry level, as well as veranda and enhanced Veranda Plus staterooms with private balconies for enjoying sea views. For a more indulgent experience, there are several suite categories including Continent, Ocean, Spa, and the most luxurious World Owner’s Suites, each featuring elegant design, generous living space, and premium amenities such as larger verandas, dedicated concierge and butler services, and exclusive benefits onboard.

Worldwide Destinations
Azamara Cruises sails to a wide variety of captivating destinations around the world, offering both classic and off-the-beaten-path experiences. Its itineraries include culturally rich regions such as the Caribbean, South America, the Mediterranean, Northern Europe and the British Isles, Asia, Africa, and the South Pacific, with extended time in port to explore local life and history. Azamara also visits lesser-known and maiden ports that larger ships often can’t reach — from Santa Marta in Colombia and Maizuru in Japan to new calls like Bimini in the Bahamas, Algiers in Algeria, and coastal Australia — plus longer voyages that traverse entire continents or even circumnavigate the globe on world cruises spanning dozens of countries and six continents.

Epicurean Indulgence
Azamara Cruises offers a varied and high-quality dining experience that complements its destination-focused voyages. Onboard, guests can enjoy complimentary main dining in the elegant Discoveries Restaurant, where menus change nightly and often reflect regional flavors from the places the ship visits. For more casual meals, the Windows Café buffet and The Patio poolside spot serve everything from breakfast and lunch to laid-back dinners and snacks throughout the day. Two specialty restaurants, Aqualina (Italian cuisine) and Prime C (steakhouse and seafood), provide elevated, reservation-recommended dining for an additional charge — though these are complimentary for suite guests. There’s also 24-hour room service and cozy spots like Mosaic Café for coffee and light bites, plus an extensive wine selection available in The Wine Cellar. With a mix of casual, classic, and gourmet options, Azamara’s dining aims to satisfy a wide range of tastes and occasions onboard.

Relaxation and Wellness
Azamara Cruises offers a variety of relaxation and wellness options designed to help you unwind and recharge throughout your voyage. At the heart of this experience is The Sanctum Spa, a tranquil retreat where guests can enjoy restorative treatments like massages, facials, body wraps, acupuncture, and other wellness therapies inspired by global traditions — many of which can be tailored to your needs. The spa also includes salon services such as manicures, pedicures, barber services, and even teeth whitening.
For those who enjoy staying active, Azamara’s fitness centers are well-equipped with modern machines and offer complimentary group classes like yoga, Pilates, cycling, and core workouts with ocean views. Personalized training sessions and nutrition classes are also available for an added fee. Beyond structured wellness, guests can find relaxation in communal spaces such as hot tubs, solarium areas, and peaceful lounges — perfect for reading, enjoying a drink, or simply gazing at the sea. Whether you’re seeking serene spa indulgence or energizing fitness routines, Azamara’s onboard offerings cater to both body and mind.

Inclusions
Azamara Cruises includes a generous set of amenities in your cruise fare that add value and help simplify your vacation. Standard inclusions for all guests typically cover gratuities, select standard spirits, international beers and wine, bottled water, soft drinks, specialty coffees and teas, 24-hour room service, self-service laundry, shuttle service to nearby port towns (where available), concierge services, and the signature AzAmazing Evenings® event on most voyages. Guests also enjoy luxurious touches like cotton bed linens, terry bathrobes, fresh flowers, turndown treats, umbrella use, and daily news bulletins. Veranda Plus and higher stateroom categories add extra perks—such as complimentary internet minutes or priority embarkation—while suite guests receive even more enhanced inclusions, including specialty dining credits or meals, dedicated butler and concierge service, premium beverages, expanded Wi-Fi, laundry service, and access to exclusive experiences. Some of these elevated suite benefits are part of new all-inclusive enhancements for sailings beginning in 2026 that feature unlimited premium drinks, Starlink Wi-Fi, unlimited laundry, and a chef-curated Acamar Experience Dinner.
Not included in the base fare are shore excursions, most spa treatments, and additional onboard purchases like upgraded beverage packages or specialty services unless specifically noted.

Onboard Enrichment
Azamara Cruises offers engaging onboard enrichment designed to deepen your connection to the destinations and spark curiosity throughout your voyage. Each cruise features a robust enrichment program with destination speakers and expert-led lectures that explore local history, culture, natural science, art, and more, often tailored to the regions you’ll visit. Guests can also enjoy hands-on classes and workshops — from wine tastings and dance sessions to culinary demonstrations and creative activities — that add an educational and interactive layer to the cruise experience. Evenings come alive with live music, cultural performances, and signature events like AzAmazing Evenings® that blend entertainment with immersive cultural context, bringing local traditions and artistry onboard. Together, these enrichment offerings make Azamara voyages as intellectually stimulating as they are enjoyable.
