Do Seabourne ships have wrap-around Verandahs?

We prefer the smaller ships but find most have no space to walk around and get some exercise.

 

We were just on the PAII (SilverSeas) and with no wrap-around deck and tiny exercise room near the restaurant they was no where to go.

 

We like HAL and thought Seabourn could possibly be a good fit if the itinerary is right.

 

We really like Swan Hellinic's Minerva which we were on in the Antarctic. It's a 400 passenger ship that only takes 199 max passengers in Antarctica. There is a wrap around deck and small gym had the best location on the ship at the top with glass windows and easy access to an outside area. It also had a great library and second buffet eating area that had access to the outside area. (Btw, it was an all inclusive with wine etc., although the smaller cabins did not have a frig).

 

Which other ships are similar?

OK, so you're asking about full promenade decks, not verandas? Yes, Seabourn has one deck on their triplets that is full walk around. You actually walk in front of the bridge. Seabourn's gyms are quite small also, even smaller than Silversea.

 

Crystal also has a full wrap around promenade deck on deck 7 that's very busy for runners and walkers. They have a program called "Walk on Water" where they lend out weighted vests for even more of a work out.

Hi Jade13, you may have more replies if you pose your question to the Seabourn board. We ar eon the SB Odyssey (just released last month) and will check it out, meantime, I'm sure someone who has been on any of the Seabourn "triplets" as they call them or the new Odyssey can more accurately answer your question.

Good Luck.
