•Awaiting the Celebrity Solstice •COLOR LINE – BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE • Costa: Caribbean ”Very much appreciated” by Europeans |
Tango's - Tango's will be a contemporary, brightly colored restaurant to compliment the hot and spicy Latin/Tapas fare. The interior will be decorated with colorful ceramics and mosaics and the carpet will be inspired by the steps of the Tango; Chin Chin - The décor of this Asian restaurant is inspired by the traditional female costumes and dances of the Far East. Tibetan flags will flutter along the railing next to the traditionally carved entrance; Tsar's Palace - This main restaurant is inspired by the grandeur of the palaces of St. Petersburg and the era of Russian Tsars. White and gold ceilings, green marbled pillars and 24-carat gold-coated chandeliers will adorn this very detailed room. The balustrades around the restaurant are inspired by Faberge eggs; Azura - This main restaurant is inspired by today's modern boutique hotel designs. The clean-lined, rich timber room will combine blues and purples with orange accents. The signature of this room will be the interpretations of pop art rendered in backlit glass that glow and set the mood for intimate dining; Mama's Italian Kitchen - This dedicated Italian restaurant will resemble a village Trattoria with a long wooden table running through the center of the room to create the feel of a traditional farmhouse kitchen. The ship will also include a new concept for NCL - a 'Bar Central' - featuring a martini bar, a champagne and wine bar, and a beer and whisky pub all connected but with three distinct personalities. Shakers Martini and Cocktail Bar will be a 1960's inspired lounge decorated with silhouettes and artwork reflecting the jet set dressed for the cocktail hour. Magnum's Champagne and Wine Bar, a French art deco inspired bar,will replicate the feel of 1920's Paris and the grand old cruise liner, the Normandie, while the back bar will have a champagne-like bubbling, backlit water display. The third venue in Bar Central will be Maltings Beer and Whiskey Pub, a contemporary bar with low seating and tables along with mood lighting that compliments the backlit artwork themed around whiskey and beer production. Accommodations Like Norwegian Star and Norwegian Dawn, Norwegian Jewel will be one of NCL's largest ships, accommodating 2,376 guests (double capacity) and more than 1,000 crew. The ship will be fitted with pod drives, which substantially improve maneuverability, and will cruise at a maximum speed of 25 knots. Norwegian Jewel will offer a new, advanced Internet Café and Photo Gallery with kiosks to print photos from digital cameras as well as the latest laptops, which guests can rent to use around the ship. The ship will also feature NCL's signature WiFi. The Sports Deck will contain a basketball, volleyball and tennis court, while the Body Waves Fitness Center will boast state-of-the-art cardiovascular workout equipment - each with its own TV - aerobic and yoga area with a sprung wooden floor, steam and sauna rooms, a jet-current exercise pool, an indoor lap pool, whirlpool and hydrotherapy pool. The ship will be particularly family-friendly and feature the Splashdown Kid's Club and Sapphire Kid's Pool, a brightly colored facility for children designed with a cute and friendly tropical sea creature theme as well as the Underground Teen's Club.
