Azamara Club Cruises reviews

Best For

Azamara attracts couples who prefer medium- or small-ship cruising with a resort-casual dress code, as well as those who want to overnight in select ports, allowing for dinner ashore.

Not For

Families or intergenerational groups with teens or kids — Azamara's cabins, dining options, pool deck, and shore excursions are geared to a mature clientele.

We Love

• AzAmazing Evenings — complimentary nighttime events in port — include concerts, gala receptions, and after-hours museum tours. 
• Azamara's wide array of itineraries and destinations offered each year includes voyages between four and 17 nights, visiting 240 ports in 66 countries.
• Complimentary house wines, beers, and spirits are served during regular bar hours — and you can upgrade to premium brands for a fee.
• Free bottled water and chilled towels are offered in the fitness center.
• Gratuities are included in the cruise fare.
• The ships’ size: Both Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest each accommodate 688 passengers, making them never feel too crowded or too quiet — and allowing access to river ports such as Seville, Spain; Bangkok; Bordeaux, France; and Shanghai. 
• The self-service laundry and resort-casual dress code make it easy to travel light.

We Could Live Without

• The bathroom configurations of most Azamara staterooms are quite tight.
• The pool and two hot tubs are small, although lounge chairs are plentiful.

• Public spaces are dressed in fussy, country-club-like décor — especially the Drawing Room and Martini Bar — and include liberal use of dark brown and green marble.
