Seabourn Odyssey entered service in 2009 and tripled the line's ship size while keeping the intimacy of the original 208-guest yachts.
All-suite and almost entirely all-balcony, she carries a two-deck spa, four dining venues and one of the highest space ratios in the luxury segment.
Drinks are open across the ship at all hours with no package to buy, gratuities are included, and caviar is served on request anywhere aboard.
The fold-out stern marina deploys in calm anchorages for swimming, kayaking and paddleboarding.
