Description
Island Escape is the most laidback ship in the fleet, taking a more informal approach to life at sea. On the activities front, you can enjoy everything from pampering spa treatments and sports, to salsa classes and fruit carving demonstrations. And at night, it’s all about side-splitting stand-up comedy, live bands and cabaret. As for restaurants, there are three to choose from, two of which offer bumper buffet spreads. Add an internet café, kids’ club and several bars into the mix, and it’s no wonder guests keep coming back for more.

“First Cruise”
Mr Roy Mitchell visited on 07/07 and recommended this ship.




This was our first cruise. We where not disappointed. The Ship was more than we expected. The ships officers and staff where superb. The cruise itself was brilliant, we cruised for 1 week then stayed in Palma, we should have cruised for the 2 weeks. We said we would cruise again with Island cruises, we are in September 2011, same ship different ports of call. A real pleasure to sail on. For the prices great value. Roy Mitchell.
