Aurora is a mid-sized ship, offering the classic cruise experience. She is instantly recognisable thanks to her elegant tiered stern and is designed as a classic ocean going vessel and is therefore ideally suited to world cruising. You can bring the kids onboard Aurora and enjoy the family holiday of a lifetime, as she offers fun-filled days, glamorous nightlife and all the relaxation you need in between. There are just over 900 cabins, ranging from insides and outsides to balcony rooms, mini-suites, suites and two two-storey penthouses, but whether you book a standard stateroom or a penthouse suite, you can be sure of travelling in comfort and style. One of Aurora's signature features is the Lalique-inspired waterfall which forms the centrepiece of her atrium. Her elegant decks reflect design influences from around the globe, evident in the Moorish splendour of Aurora's main restaurants and the Lalique-inspired waterfall in the central atrium.
The wealth of entertainment for you and the children, combined with lots of opportunities to relax and unwind, means cruising on Aurora is pure indulgence from the moment you step aboard. There are Reef kids' clubs offering supervised activities your children will enjoy, whether they're a toddler, tween or teen, so while they're busy having fun and making new friends you get some time to do your own thing. There’s the Playhouse cinema which shows recently released films, and evening entertainment is held in ether the Curzon Theatre or Carmen's lounge. Aurora has more than its fair share of bars and lounges, such as the Crow’s Nest bar, which offers a great view of every port along the way, Champions sports bar, and Anderson’s, with its rather sophisticated wood panelled walls. Adults can also experience the thrills of the Monte Carlo casino or dance into the small hours in Masquerade.
If it’s relaxation you are after, Arcadia's Oasis spa and salon is a luxury not to be missed. A visit to the sauna and steam room is a wonderfully rejuvenating experience, while a therapeutic massage with ocean view will help life's cares drift away. There is also a selection of men's treatments, a nail bar and hairdressing salon to spoil yourself. However, if you're in active mood, there is a small gym available, a sports deck, and a swimming pool with a retractable roof for all year, all weather laps and fun.
Dining options include two main restaurants, Alexandria and Medina, where you can enjoy great company and word class cuisine. For something a little more casual, try Café Bordeaux for delicious French and international dishes endorsed by Marco Pierre White. There’s also an al fresco grill restaurant or if you'd rather eat in your room after a busy day, just call room service, which is available 24 hours a day.
