The vessel features 48 cabins housing 96 guests, and has a 1:2 crew-to-guest ratio, providing you with a truly intimate and attentive service. Each cabin is perfectly appointed to offer the highest levels of luxury and comfort, and most feature a Scenic Sun Lounge, so you can make the most of the Portuguese sunshine.
