Azura is a social paradise at sea – a family-friendly favourite with something for everyone. She spends her time whisking guests away on unforgettable fly-cruise holidays to the Mediterranean and the Canary Islands, so to reflect the beauty of the destinations she frequents, Azura will soon undergo a refit that will bring her sunny disposition to the fore through modern, luxurious furniture and finishings and elegant styling.

 

We’re paying particular attention to bars and restaurants, making those family dinners and sunset cocktails even more memorable, and to cabins and suites to make your stay more comfortable than ever.

 

Restaurants

Azura has plenty of places to dine, so whatever you’re craving, you’ll find the cure. We’re elevating the design in these popular venues to reflect the quality of the overall dining experience.

 

Sindhu

The popular Indian/British restaurant will have a new look that reflects its flavourful fusion menu: metallic elements blend with traditional fabrics and modern styling to create a rich, opulent space.

 

The Glass House

Glass itself is the inspiration for the updated look at Olly Smith’s popular wine bar, with crisp lines, geometric shapes and energetic, harmonious colourways.

 

The Epicurean

An elegant restaurant deserves an elegant look. Reddish tones pay homage to exotic spices and fresh ingredients and combine with neutral shades to create a warm, natural finish across seating, cushions and carpets.

 

Oriental Restaurant

In this main dining restaurant, new carpeting and furniture will be rendered in floral motifs and a palette of pinks and greens that reference shapes and colours found in nature with a nod to a traditional aesthetic.

 

Verona and Venezia

The handwash stations at these popular eateries will be given an upgrade – at Verona with deep brick-red tones and elegant vertical tiles, and at Venezia with soft beiges and silvers and reflective, slender tiles.

Bars

Whether you’re after a coffee, a cocktail or a night on the tiles, Azura’s bars have you covered around the clock.

 

Java

The coffee bar will be perked up with organic textures and rustic, earthy tones that take inspiration from the process of coffee making.

 

Breakers Bar

The beauty of the beach inspires the fresh and informal new look at Breakers – think tropical sea blues, warm corals and sandy tones on tiles and floors, and for accent colours.

 

Manhattan Lounge

New carpeting and upholstery reflects bold, urban energy through vibrant colours and design references taken from soaring city architecture.

Accommodation

Cabins 

Your cabin will be even cosier with new carpets and curtains and new fabric on desk chairs, sofa beds and headboards. Refreshed blues work in harmony with wooden tones and a neutral palette to create a relaxing ambiance, while soft, tactile finishes up the relaxation factor.

 

Suites

Soothing lavender and neutrals will be added to the colour palette, which along with wooden tones and soft textures create a balanced colour scheme across carpets, headboards, curtains, chairs and cushions. We’ll also bring in new ceiling lamps, bedside lamps and reading lamps and USB charger options.
