The Sapphire Princess sports some of the cruise line's tried-and-true amenities, with a new twist. The trademark Skywalkers disco/lounge gets a makeover on this ship, with a 125-foot wide balcony where passengers can take an al fresco break from the dance floor action. Visit Club Fusion, which features 42 video screens and a spiral staircase that leads to Wake View Bar. Other amenities include an Asian-themed Lotus Spa, with a fitness center and outdoor sunken pool, the Sanctuary adult retreat and one of the largest Internet cafes at sea, complete with 29 computer stations. A nine-hole golf putting course and two computerized golf simulators allow passengers to tee off even while aboard the ship. Dining options abound, from a poolside pizzeria, hamburger grill and ice cream bar to Sabatini's Italian restaurant and a 24-hour buffet/bistro. Stateroom amenities include refrigerator, television, spacious closet, bathroom with shower and 24-hour room service.
