Holidaymakers are promised an experience called “ocean state of mind” – where people can escape to the ocean, relax, create memories and reconnect with what matters most in life. The cruise liner is complete with a thermal area, two VIP double spa suites, beauty salon, fitness area and other wonderful features.
Look through all the pictures to see how amazing the ship is.
