PROS

Silversea Cruises includes free shore excursions. The ship's complementary wines, (and wine service),were exemplary, and well-appreciated by the guests.

CONS

Only 3 Guest Entertainers for a 15-day cruise. Only four "orchestra" musicians. Too many formal and informal nights. Very sub-standard/problematic TV remote controls. Only (Silversea) ship to have ONE unisex sauna, steam room, shower (with no lockers). No stateroom night lights. No afternoon tea.

CONS

RECOMMENDED

Staterooms were quite spacious with walk-in closets and bathtubs. The dining rooms were outstanding. Because of that, the specialty restaurants couldn't justify the additional charge. The shows were poorly attended, and there wasn't anything to do after dinner.

CONS

Restaurant confusion

RECOMMENDED

Yes

Suites were large and well appointed, LOTS of storage. Service impeccable. I think they have too many restaurants, and they have an image problem with Indochine which was the 2nd of the 'open' (non reservation) restaurants. The decor was contemporary, not what we want for a fine dining restaurant. Nobody wanted to go there, even with great service, they wanted Atlantide. I would also like entertainment at other times of the day than 9:30 at night. The performers were wonderful. More events on board during the day would be nice, not just games. But, we had no sea days so not as much going on

<div>It is my personal opinion that the Butler is not needed. The stewardess or steward can often take care of special requests. Our stewardess forgot to leave clean towels at turn down. We had to call reception to get them delivered. It would be the Butlers job to see that those things are done for the suites following the stewardess job of cleaning and restocking items in the suite.</div>

CONS

RECOMMENDED

No

<div>Silversea is mostly all inclusive, with included gratuities, beverages, and wifi. Dining venues I particularly like were Silver Note,( intimate supper club feel ), Atlantide,( main dining room,lots of choices ), and The Grill (cook you own food on hot rocks).&nbsp;</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>Suites were well appointed and spacious. Public spaces were lovely and understated, many outside spaces for dining and drinks as well.&nbsp; Also impressive, the small Arts Cafe, for anytime light dinning, dessert, or coffee, with inside and outside seating.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>One very interesting speaker, someone that previously worked at NASA and had 3 lectures on space. He was an extremely good speaker and captivated his audience.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>All these things made for a great experience with excellent feedback from everyone I spoke with.</div>

The all-suite Silver Spirit is fresh with lots of light. Art-deco with cream/beige decor. Amazing crew, always nearby ready to take on any requests. Service was quick and always with a friendly smile. Suites are beautiful, well-appointed, teak verandas, mini-fridge is stocked with your personal favorite wine, liquor and soft drinks. Bathrooms have a bathtub and separate shower with fabulous huge towels. The beds are very comfortable... The pool deck is large with plenty of chairs for everyone. Good size pool, three hot tubs. Dining options are abundant. La Terazza was my favorite for dinner. Delicious pasta; also has the best lunch buffet I have ever seen with fresh salads, seafood, meat, vegetables, the works. The Grill provides personal grilling experience on the pool deck for dinner. 540 mature, well-traveled, active guests.

Star Star Star Star Star

PROS

Outstanding Small Ship Luxury Cruising Experience

CONS

None

RECOMMENDED

No

<div>Sailed on the Silver Spirit 5 night Caribbean, Mar, 2019 The Silver Spirit: The Ship, accommodations and space ratio is excellent. Staterooms and suites are beautifully designed. The spaciousness carries throughout the ship, it is never crowded. You can find a comfortable lounge chair by the pool, a cozy table in the cafe or the library any time. Very spacious and comfortable for the number of guests onboard. Truly a small luxury ship, with about 600 guests. The service is excellent, never intruding, and it almost seems like the staff can read your mind and anticipate your requests. Overall the Silversea Cruise Experience exceeded my expectations in many ways. The dining onboard is exceptional, with many restaurants to choose from. Once onboard the all inclusive value, of having Butler service in ALL suites - premium spirits and wines, gratuities and much more - makes for a very relaxing and enjoyable luxury cruising experience.</div>

<div>We had a fantastic butler and suite attendant who took very good care of us during our voyage. The food was very good and we enjoyed the opportunity to dine in our suite. The Pianists in the lounges were excellent. Your clients will e<span style="line-height: 1.6em;">njoy the intimate feel and personalized attention that is provided to guests. For those with special dietary needs such as gluten-free and veterinarian, there were very few on the menu and no indication from the wait staff that they could be specially ordered. I highly recommend that if clients are interested in using the internet, they should purchase the unlimited package. Internet is slow and will eat up time quickly. Guests need to be aware of using extra caution when getting in and out of the tender as the floor can be very slippery from the spray of the water going to/from the ship.</span></div>

Silver Spirit in the Med

NOVEMBER

Star Star Star Star Star

PROS

Gorgeous ship with a crew that excels in every way. Every time I sail on Silversea, there are noticeable improvements.

CONS

Boutiques featured mostly expensive jewelry and little choice otherwise. ( I was surprised at the offbeat location of the boutique.)

RECOMMENDED

No

<div>Although I had sailed 10 times on Silversea before this cruise, I never been on the Spirit. I was amazed at how much bigger it was than the Shadow/Whisper and with how many more dining venues there were. Of course, a number of the dining rooms incur extra charges. I only experienced a few of the dining options. The Grill dinner with the hot stones was a fun and interesting experience; it was made possible on a cool evening with heat lamps. Since ours was a special&nbsp; gourmet cruise, some evenings there were gala dinners cooked by chefs from a German and an Italian restaurants) in La Terrraza. (No additional cost) The usual Italian dinners served in that restaurant are good choices but not the best I have had.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>This was the first time for me to have free Wi Fi, free laundry and a butler on any ship. I had always said that I wouldn&#39;t know what to do with a butler but I managed to find he was a good resource and quite helpful (although new). He somehow quietly organized our onboard experience.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>Our cruise featured Alexandre Renior, great grandson of Pierre-August Renoir.&nbsp; He not only talked on board ship but took a small group on a delightful l trip to Renoir&#39;s Museum in Cagnes sur Mer.&nbsp; Another guest lecturer was Joe Synder, who was a wonderful speaker on the history of places we were visiting.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>The shore excursions were quite varied and some quite innovative, like a truffle hunting tour from Marseilles.</div>
