Hi, this is our first Azamara cruise and looking for any advice. We’ve done Viking and Windstar before this.
For instance, I see references to a “white night”? There is nothing on our information about that. I’ve also found their website to be very difficult to navigate
Excursions all booked, some through Rick’s recommendations.
specific cruise information can usually be found on CruiseCritic.com
But if you google white night on Azamara you can find this:
Azamara's White Night is a signature, al fresco dinner and entertainment event held on the pool deck, featuring delicious food, engaging entertainment, and a dress code of wearing something white, hosted by Azamara officers and crew.
Here's a more detailed look:
What it is: White Night is a fun, memorable event held on the pool deck, featuring a buffet feast, boutique wines, and a show by the entertainment team.
Dress code: Guests are encouraged to wear something white.
Location: The event takes place on the pool deck, weather permitting.
Food: A fabulous buffet feast is served.

Hi! I’ve been on two Azamara cruises. You will love it. Small ship size, attentive staff, interesting port stops, and no need to pay for extras as they are included.
White night is held on the pool deck and feature a huge barbecue. The area is completely transformed into an al fresco restaurant. People wear white or something close to white if they have it. Live music, dancing, and usually a special performance by a local group. In Turkey it was a group of singers. In South Africa it was Zulu dancers and drummers.
Here you go:
Thank you all!
For the wardrobe-challenged on our cruises, we have seen plenty of people wearing the bathrobes from their staterooms. Mission accomplished, yes, but this practice lacks the charm they are going for. Food, btw, was wonderful. Steaks, lobster, shrimp and more grilled choices with lots of delicious sides. Don't eat lunch that day!
