MS Amalyra, a ship just coming into service in 2009, joins her sister ships MS Amacello, MS Amalegro, and MS Amadante, in settng a new high mark in style and amenities in European river cruising by offering traveler sensitive and interesting features that no other European river cruise ship can match. The ship was designed and built by Europe's best ship builders in Holland, with the years of experience AMA Waterways Worldwide Vacations has as it's blueprint in what was needed to please the North American traveler. On board the MS Amalyra the public areas provide wonderful open spaces and wide hallways which is exceptional when compared with other ships on the river.

Great Views Abound

There are 2 great lounges located on the Upper Deck to select from for evening gatherings. From either you will enjoy a panoramic river view. The first is the Panorama Lounge which accommodates up to 150 passengers, and the smaller one, the Adagio Lounge in the Aft of the ship, is a wonderful place for holding group meetings and parties. An elevator services all four decks aboard this ship - a strong benefit that is rarely seen on river ships.

Staterooms

Your beautifully decorated stateroom will measure a spacious 170 square feet and you will find all the amenities of a fine European hotel, with white-on-white plush bedding, as well as a well appointed sitting area. Your in cabin entertainment comes to you via flat screen television. They have put together an in room entertainment option that they call an 'Infotainment System' which includes free internet access, and a movie and music library for your viewing pleasure, another unique feature. Each cabin also includes a hair dryer, safe, bathrobes, individually controlled air-conditioning and spacious closets. All 71 staterooms and the 4 Jr. Suites offer an unobstructed river view; over 80% feature large French balconies, which brings the river right to your door when relaxing in your stateroom. The Jr. Suites are upgraded further to provide an even larger 255 square feet of room. They feature a comfortable sitting area with a sofa and two chairs, floor-to-ceiling windows with French balconies and extra large bathrooms with bathtubs and showers. Be sure to make your reservation early if you are interested in one of the suites as they usually are the first to be sold out.

Dining

All the menus have been created with the route and region in mind and especially for AMA Waterways River Cruises by esteemed European chefs. Local produce and ingredients as well as local specialties are often part of the nightly menu. The breakfast selections include a special "Hot Station" for custom dishes prepared to your specific request. All meals are served in a single open seating style, allowing you the maximum flexibility of dining companion choice. Breakfast and lunch are buffet style and dinner is a sit down affair. Another benefit from AMA Waterways is the inclusion of bar and wine at dinner each evening on board.

Entertainment

We mentioned the in cabin Infotainment System, but there is also nightly entertainment provided with the emphasis being on the region being visited for the theme. Folkloric shows are brought onboard where possible and presented, professional musical performers are showcased and there is also a lovely piano bar on board with a dance floor provided if you are a dancer, or you can just enjoy an evening cocktail, listen to the music and enjoy a warm conversation with a fellow passenger.

Wellness Program

You don't have to leave your fitness program at home when selecting this ship. She offers numerous options to work out. You may use the equipment provided in the fitness room with its glass walls for great views while you work out, or circle the deck on the walking track. There is a whirlpool on board as well as a masseuse to massage away the kinks. When visiting the smaller port towns you may decide to take one of the bicycles they keep on board to explore. You will also have the services of a beauty salon and a souvenir shop available to enhance your trip experience.
