Twin mega-yachts, SeaDream I and II, accomodate 110-passengers, and are 4,260-tons. Formerly the Seabourn Sea Goddess I & II, built in 1984 and 1985 they were acquired by Cunard Line in 1986. In 2002 they were acquired by SeaDream Yacht Club with a complete redesigned and refit within the same year. Capacity was reduced to 110 passengers due to a few large suites that were added. There are no private balconies as they were built before these became standard features. SeaDream pursues corporate and incentive charter markets, however they will designate one ship primarily for those groups and the other for individual passengers.

Both ships are top of the line vessels with excellent cuisine, service, and itineraries. Itineraries include Caribbean, Eastern and Western Mediterranean, Greek Isles, and Transatlantic. Both ships offer a selection of sports equipment including, windsurfers, snorkel equiprment, paddle boats, jet skis and moutain bikes. Due to their size they can visit many of the smaller ports that larger ships do not visit. The experience offered aboard these ships is casual elegance with plenty of fun.

Entertainment:
Entertainment is offered at the intimate Piano Bar, quiet music is offered in the Main Lounge and movies are shown on deck on deck under the stars. In some ports, local cultural entertainers will be brought onboard. SeaDream yacht guests can play 50 championship courses within the state-of-the-art Golf Simulator. Additionally guests will find a elegant library that is cozy and quiet, with books, DVD's, magazines, newspapers, board games and computers.

Public Areas:
The décor on board is quite chic with a relaxed atmosphere. All public areas have been refurbished and offer rich-looking wood paneling, fabrics and accessories. The Main Salon on Deck 3 offers a bar and seats that circle a small dance floor with stage. Just outside is a pool and bar. On deck 4 is the library where guests will find DVDs for in-suite watching, the Piano Bar, and a small casino with two blackjack tables and six slot machines. Besides the main Dining Room there is an Outdoor Cafe, and the Club Salon. There is also a beauty salon and boutique. On Deck 4 guests will also find the refurbished Asian Spa, now seven times larger than it was and operated by Balinese-themed Mandara. The improved spa now has three treatment rooms, a beauty salon for one patron at a time, and a thalassotherapy tub that can be filled with warm, filtered seawater. Deck 5 has an open promenade that leads to the open bridge, while Deck 6 features a new, extended aft sun deck with the new Top of the Yacht Bar. There are now 18 double sun beds, which are elaborate, cushioned step-up beds with partitions, parasols and lights for night time reading. Teak recliners and a few hammocks are scattered about as well as tables for outdoor dining as well.

Cuisine:
Open-seating is offered in the dining room as well as the Topside Restaurant. This allows passengers to choose when and with whom to dine with. The service and cuisine is aimed to please all guests. Each can accommodate the full capacity of the ship at any given time, meaning there are no lines at any time. Cappuccino, Espresso and other coffee specialties are available upon request. Dinner hours are 7-10 p.m while room service is available 24 hours a day.

During the "Champagne and Caviar Splash," the Captain and staff serve caviar (sevruga malossol) and champagne (Pommery) at no additional cost to guests at water's edge while the yacht is anchored off a secluded beach in caribbean sailings.

Service:
The staff is friendly, sincere and offers the absolute highest level of personal service. Caribbean sailings offer champagne and caviar that are set up on a floating surfboard where the waiters get in the water to take your order and deliver your requests!

You can forget about standing in line on a SeaDream yacht; these ships only cater to 110 guests. And with a crew of 90, it is no surprise to find service levels on board these yachts to be very high. Some might say that the standard accommodations on board SeaDream yachts do not rise to the level of a ‘suite’. At 195 square feet, they are better described as luxurious staterooms. All are ocean view with large picture windows (portholes on Deck 2). The sofa looks too long for a room this size, but is comfortable. At some ports, SeaDream lowers its marina deck (located aft) and offers a host of complimentary water sports including skiing, kayaking, banana boat rides, wave boards and even wave runners. Some ports are identified as ‘bicycle friendly’ and the ship carries 10 mountain bikes and helmets for guest use. Request a bike and you will find it ready and waiting for you at the bottom of the gangway. Perhaps the most unique and exclusive activity available to SeaDream patrons is the Segway "Human Transporter." For a nominal fee, guests can learn how to transport themselves effortlessly using these gyroscopic wonder machines. Each SeaDream yacht carries five of these unusual contraptions.

The Asian Spa and Fitness Center is a new addition to these ships and a nice one at that. The spa area includes several private massage rooms where you can enjoy a variety of treatments. There is a salon which offers manicures and pedicures and hair styling. The fitness center area is well-equipped for a ship this size.
Evenings on board the SeaDream II begin with complimentary cocktails and hors d’oeuvres served in the Main Lounge on Deck 3, or weather permitting, on Deck 6 at the Top of the Yacht Bar. Guests can enjoy a glass of Pomeroy French champagne, or the cocktail of their choosing. SeaDream has an open bar policy on board and only charges extra for certain premium liquors and wines. There were no announcements made over the ship’s PA system during the cruise. This policy also makes this a great ship for small groups who wish to conduct meetings on board since they will not be continually interrupted by announcements. There are no art auctions, no gold by the inch, no attempts to sell you frozen drinks by the pool. One of the hallmarks of a 6-Star cruise line is the lack of attempts to solicit money from its guests for onboard purchases. Your SeaDream cruise fare covers all gratuities, soft drinks, bottled water, wine with lunch and dinner and all bar drinks. About the only things you will need to pay for are onboard purchases at the gift shop, spa, the casino, shore tours and premium wines and liquors. there are only two computer terminals located in the Library, they were "online" most of the time and the charges were respectable: $5 for the first ten minutes and $3 for each ten minutes thereafter.

Don't expect flashy shows, singers or even a band. There is a solo pianist who is quite good. The emphasis here is on relaxation, enjoying good conversation with new friends and exploring interesting ports-of-call. The upside is you leave this cruise relaxed and refreshed, not feeling as though you need a vacation just to recover from the cruise.

Resort casual, which means jackets are not required at any time for men. Short and bathing suits are not allowed in indoor dining rooms and shoes are required.

Cruises on board SeaDream's yachts appeal to affluent, active travelers who enjoy the unpretentious, yet casually sophisticated atmosphere, creative cuisine, and refined service. Her guests well-heeled, sophisticated and youngish. SeaDream cruisers range in age from mid-40s to mid-60s, with the average being 46 years old. The weeklong itineraries appeal to those still working hard with limited vacation time while, at the same time, allow retired folks to combine cruises into 14-day voyages.
