There is plenty to enjoy onboard Bolette while cruising in style to your next destination, be it Ireland or Peru. The all-season swimming pools are perfect for a bit of light exercise or simply a way to stay refreshed on a hot sunny day, while the jacuzzis and spa are the ideal treat for those who are craving a little extra pampering. Complete with a Thermal Spa, Hydro Pool, Saunas, Aroma Room and nine treatment rooms, rest and relaxation is guaranteed. 

When you start to feel peckish, you can take advantage of the ship's superb restaurants. Bolette is home to six eateries serving a variety of mouthwatering dishes, ensuring you will not run out of things to try. From perfectly-cooked breakfasts to set you up for the day, to delicious lunches and five course á la carte dinners, you're sure to love the expertly-prepared food on offer, while the friendly and attentive staff are always on hand to serve you with a smile. 

If you'd like to do some mingling and enjoy the company of your fellow guests, you'll find plenty of chances in the elegant public spaces, which includes eleven stylish bars and lounges. The spacious ship also caters perfectly to those who prefer to have some solitude and down time to themselves. Those with a passion for food, or perhaps looking to brush up on their cooking skills, will also be delighted by the Culinary Theatre, which plays host to regular classes and demonstrations. With something to keep all guests occupied by day, Bolette cruises are certainly never boring.

BOLETTE BY NIGHT

When the sun sets you can be sure of an enchanting evening aboard Bolette. Perhaps you'd like to start your night with a cocktail or glass of wine at one of the eleven bars and lounges, before making your way to one of the six restaurants for a delectable dinner experience. The ship's main restaurant oozes elegance, with its beautiful decor spread across two tiers. The smaller eateries also have excellent dinner options, and if you'd rather refuel with a more relaxed dining experience, the buffet restaurant provides plenty of delicious dishes to choose from. 

When it comes to entertainment, Bolette cruises definitely do not disappoint. The main show lounge set inside the two-tiered restaurant offers captivating after dinner shows with unrestricted stage views, and the other bars and lounges also have shows and live music to offer. From cabaret and stand up comedy to toe-tapping musical performances and gentle acoustic sets, it's easy to end the day with a smile aboard Bolette.
