Lido Deck

 

Riviera Pool & Bar

 

This pool resembles the original first class pool on Canberra, being terraced, ideal for all those sun bakers. Forward of the pool is the bar, the band stand (Port) and one Jacuzzi.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lotus Spa & Gym

 

The Lotus Spa, Beauty Salon and Gym is located amidships on Lido deck and down on Arcadia Deck. To access the upper level there is a spiral staircase. Both levels are also accessible by lift. Personally I found the Lotus Spa on Oriana to be far superior, being located forward of Lido Deck. On Oriana there were two large indoor Jacuzzis and its sauna and steam room facilities were far superior. The gym as is on most ships today is excellent.

Sidewalk Café

 

A great little lunchtime eatery, famed for its fish and chips, hamburgers and hotdogs

 

 

 

 

 

 

Crystal Pool & Bar

 

Forward of the pool is the bar (starboard side) as well as two Jacuzzis.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Orangery Buffet

 

This room is bright colourful and extremely well designed for casual dinning. Even the author dinned here on occasions, and that is saying something, as I find most shipboard Buffets like cheap cafeterias.

 

 

 

 

 

Pennant Bar

 

Overlooking the stern and the terraces down to the Terrace pool, this is one of the most popular bars out on deck

Credit is given to all contributors. However, there are photographs provided to me without details provided regarding the photographer concerned. I hereby invite if owners of these images would be so kind to make them-selves known to me, that due credit may be given. I know what it is like, I have seen a multitude of my own photographs on other sites, yet they either refuse to give me credit and even refuse to remove them, knowing full well that there is no legal comeback when it comes to the net. However, let us show the charlatans up and do the right thing at all times and give credit where credit is due! Note: I do not credit those who send me photos as they are not the owners of the photographs concerned, unless the image is part of their private collection.

This notice covers all pages, although, I have done my best to ensure that all photographs are duly credited and that this notice is displaced on each page, that is, when a page is updated!
