VIVALDI Ship Review<\/h1>\n\n\n
\n
\"CroisiEurope's<\/a>

VIVALDI Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

She may be another in a long-line of successful near-sister ships for CroisiEurope<\/b>, but Vivaldi has a distinctive personality all her own. Launched in 2009, the 361-foot long vessel has a decidedly modern, elegant look to her public spaces and staterooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dark wood accents are offset by vibrant yellows and blues throughout the vessel, giving her the appearance of a trendy boutique hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VIVALDI Staterooms<\/h2>\n\n\n

A total of 88 passenger staterooms are available aboard Vivaldi. All staterooms onboard offer the same amount of space and personal amenities, with the exception of a mobility-impaired stateroom located on Middle Deck. Staterooms are small but functional, and offer enough storage space for two guests taking a weeklong journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each stateroom features twin or double beds, bathroom with shower, toilet and sink\/vanity area, a hairdryer, a safe and satellite television.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All staterooms on Upper Deck feature French Balconies, while staterooms on Middle Deck have fixed picture windows. Those staterooms that are located on Lower Deck have half-height windows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CroisiEurope\u2019s Vivaldi features a main Restaurant located all the way forward on Main Deck. Meals are served buffet-style for breakfast, with a set menu that changes daily for lunch and dinner. The Restaurant has a noticeably more modern feel than some of Vivaldi\u2019s earlier sister-ships, with trendy chairs, tables and fixtures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One deck up, the ship\u2019s Main Lounge features 180-degree Panoramic windows offering views of the Danube and Rhine rivers. With a full-service bar, it\u2019s a great place to relax and enjoy newfound company. The Lounge features plenty of seating options and boasts an attractive color palette with leather-wrapped lounge chairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All the way aft on Upper Deck is the Panorama Bar, a small gathering space overlooking the outdoor terrace situated on the stern of Vivaldi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the Sun Deck above, guests can admire the passing views of Europe\u2019s most storied waterways with outdoor deck space that stretches from bow to stern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
