Crystal Cruises Will Go All Inclusive In Spring Next Year
One of my favorite cruise lines is the award-winning Crystal Cruises.
I was very lucky to have the pleasure of being on the Crystal Symphony and what a beautiful ship it was…Exceeded all expectations..The staff are so friendly and warm and the service is outstanding and now to be told they are going all inclusive what else could you ask for.
Starting with spring sailings next year, the luxury cruise line will take a new “all-inclusive” approach That means free wine and bar services, free dining in specialty restaurants and prepaid tipping (you won’t have to) for housekeeping, bar and dining staff.
Your All Inclusive 2-for-1 fare includes:
- Free air
- Free fine wines, premium spirits and beers throughout the ship
- Open bar service in all lounges
- Pre-paid gratuities for housekeeping, bar and dining staff as well as Butler service in our Penthouses
- Complimentary specialty dining including Nobu Matsuhisa’s Silk Road and Sushi Bar, and Piero Selvaggio’s Prego
- Non-alcoholic beverages such as bottled water, soft drinks and specialty coffees and so much more!
Crystal features some of the finest accommodations afloat.Many feature private verandas, luxurious bedding including 100 percent Egyptian cotton linens and towels, Frette bathrobes, and a TV/DVD player. Guests also receive complimentary soft drinks and bottled water in their staterooms.
For the ultimate in luxury, Penthouse accommodations are the ticket, with private butler service, complimentary wine and beer and a choice of liquor and other features.
Dining is an event on Crystal ships.
The menus are like books with a wonderful variety of dishes that can be complemented with selections from the line’s extensive wine cellar.
In all, each ship carries more than 200 vintages.
Guests select from up to seven evening dining options. Dinner in the main dining room with European-trained staff is served in two seatings.
In addition to superb European and American cuisine, four-course vegetarian and low-carb dishes are featured in the main dining room.
Casual food is served at poolside at Trident Bar & Grill; on certain evenings, the tables are outfitted with table cloths and a bit more elegant dining look. A special menu is served. Yet, the aura is casual and sometimes themed.
Spa and Fitness
The Feng-Shui inspired Crystal Spa and Salon features dry sauna and steam room, massage therapies and a host of spa treatments. For example, Crystal offers a full-bodied menu of pampering massages, exotic skin treatments, facials, manicures, pedicures and so on.
The state-of-the-art fitness center offers personal fitness instructors, a lap outdoor pool, a swimming pool under a retractable dome and the line’s Walk On Water or WOW fitness Program.
