The best way to cruise to The Balearics and other destinations
It’s a big world out there, as we all know and with such a multitude of fabulous holiday destinations on offer out there it really can be difficult making that ultimate choice. Naturally there are packages tailored to suit everyone, from gentile and leisurely voyages, where you can spend time enjoying the ship’s generous deck space and read a suitable holiday novel, or family orientated deals where activities for all the family feature heavily on the itinerary, to clubbing extravaganzas. No one need miss out and where Cunard cruises are concerned, as they really do make every effort to make sure all of their passengers, from young to old, get the most out of life aboard the Queens vessels. For knowledge hungry passengers there are informative lectures and of course for shopaholics there are an extensive range of onboard boutiques, stocking everything from perfume to designer clothing. If you like your holiday destinations to be all encompassing then one of The Balearic’s finest might well fit the bill. In fact those who have enjoyed Mediterranean voyages in the past may well have enjoyed an excursion to Ibiza Town and the island’s various glamorous resorts. And if you have, you’ll no doubt remember just how amazing this sundrenched island is. In terms of glamour it is up there with Royal Caribbean cruises and although the concept of how to enjoy your holiday is somewhat different, it is no less enjoyable than those to be experienced aboard a world famous leisure line.

"Food was very good. portions smaller than on previous trips but that was a positive. Choice was amazing and we had ecellent attentive staff in the dining room and our stateroom. We were not so keen on the onboard entertainment but found plenty to do. The dancing lessons were great." - Allison, Leicester on 10th Sep 2009 (Royal Caribbean Cruises)
Let the experts handle your requests
And if indeed you have experienced the island of Ibiza, whilst enjoying cruises from Southampton and you’ve found your excursion simply didn’t give you enough time on this fabulous island, you can always book yourself a break there at a later date! The best way to do this is to visit a company who can lay claim to being true Ibiza experts and all your requirements, from flights to accommodation, can be handled by them with a no fuss approach. Ibiza is known for its lively lifestyle and great all year round climate and if you’ve docked at the port of Ibiza with Fred Olsen cruises you will have realised that the island simply buzzes from dusk until dawn. And this is something that this revered line and this stunning island have in common, their ability to impress all who encounter them! Whilst the ocean going vessels concentrate on providing voyages which provide passengers with some of the best value for money and luxurious European voyages around, the island’s trademark is fun, fun and more fun for thrill seekers everywhere. Of course that’s not to say that the island doesn’t have its share of peaceful hideaways, it’s just that it really excels in the world of clubs and partying! And as far as excelling goes NCL cruises certainly know a thing or two about it! Hailing from Norway, this is sea adventure at its very best and just like The Balearics they have more than a few surprises in store.

"Just arrived back from a wonderful far east cruise. Staff 1st class,food 1st class,destinations 1st class. Drinks were expensive but knew before we went so booked a X1 drinks package - money well spent. Ignore negative comments - I did & had a wonderful time & excellent value for the money the cruise cost. Would book a Costa cruise again." - Edwards, Widnes on 9th Sep 2009 (Costa Cruises)
From cabins to ocean view villas.
Having perfect accommodation, whilst you’re away from home, certainly goes a long way towards making your holiday more enjoyable and whether you’re sailing the seven seas aboard a luxury liner, or enjoying the delights of The Balearics, there are some rather amazing accommodation options for you to consider. To really get the most out of Ibiza you need to let the experts help you to choose your holiday sleeping arrangements. From hotels in Ibiza Town, or villas within a stone’s throw of some gorgeous resorts, they have a whole host of attractive options for you to consider. In fact the choices are akin to those you’d experience aboard Caribbean cruises! It’s all a question of your own desires and budget, but in all honesty even the budget accommodation is desirable. Naturally everything aboard ship is all within walking distance and whilst some accommodation on Ibiza can be off the beaten track, with some affordable car hire options, this shouldn’t present too much of an obstacle. In fact nothing is too much trouble for, either an expert in all things related to Ibiza or MSC cruises. Aside from the absolutely fabulous vessels that this Italian line operate, it’s the overall care and attention to details which truly enchants passengers, from the waistline busting onboard Italian restaurants, to the unique style of entertainment, this is one style of holiday you’d be crazy to miss out on. Ibiza and ocean voyages provide some stunning vistas, but this isn’t even the half of it.

"We were on the royal caribbean legend of the seas 19/07/09 the ship was lovely,the staff were amazing especially in the main dining area-romeo+juliet.the food was always first class!served by the most welcoming staff around,from our first meal to our last they made us feel so very special,nothing was a bother to them!" - Mcvey, Hamilton on 11th Sep 2009 (Royal Caribbean Cruises)
Paradise is here, now!
Paradise comes in many forms, for some it’s sailing to exotic locations and enjoying entertainments extravaganzas aboard Celebrity cruises and for others, it’s soaking up the atmosphere and watching the world famous DJs ply their trade at the likes of Cafe del Mar and Pacha. Whatever takes your fancy some of the best leisure vessels and an Ibiza specialist can ensure that all your holiday dreams come true. Paradise is a word often used to describe many destinations, but without a doubt the world’s finest exotic locations are visited by P&O cruises. In fact their fleet of vessels, including Arcadia and Ventura, are frequent visitors to many an island paradise and remain a firm favourite for those looking for both, adults only and family orientated holidays at sea. The words paradise and Ibiza are of course synonymous with each other and this not only describes the scenery, but the relaxed state of mind it seems to instil in its many visitors. And if you truly want to enjoy the ultimate party island in all its finery it might well be worth your while chartering a boat and exploring the island’s numerous secluded beaches for yourself. The staff at a site related to all things ‘Ibiza’, similarly to the attentive crew aboard Princess cruises, will make sure you have access to everything, from club tickets, to the best spa packages, to make sure your holiday lives up to expectations. Just like the best voyages at sea, fun is a given!
