Whether choosing a ship tailored more toward adults or sailing with children onboard a family-oriented cruise line, you can rest assured knowing that tranquility is just around the corner, as several of today’s cruise ships are placing a greater emphasis on designing secluded venues just for adults.

If you are traveling with children and are looking for adult-only options while the kids enjoy age-specific programs, the following cruise lines have also produced many amenities and incentives for the exclusive use of adults allowing you to enjoy coveted time alone.

• Celebrity Cruises’ new Solstice class ships (Celebrity Solstice, Celebrity Equinox, and Celebrity Eclipse), offer the ‘Solarium’ – the adult-only venue featuring a lap-pool, waterfalls, and surrounding plush lounge chairs for the perfect afternoon of reading, swimming, and relaxing without interruption.
• Royal Caribbean also features an adult-only ‘Solarium’ on select ships. The new Oasis of the Seas will pleasantly surprise guests with its two-story Solarium and will provide cantilevered whirlpools, a bistro serving beverages and healthy snacks, several lounge areas, and will transform into an intimate venue for dining and dancing in the evening, followed by a late night dance club.

Travelers who are interested in a cruising experience that fully adapts to adults will enjoy the following cruise lines as they offer fewer programs for children and more emphasis on activities for adults. With a luxurious tone and atmosphere, you will discover days at sea that encompass a more upscale experience including enrichment programs, premier service, immaculate spas, and more.

Of course, exclusive adult-only areas as well as cruise ships providing a greater emphasis on programs for adults aren’t the only ways to find a moment of silence or an environment for adults. Don’t forget key areas of ships that are less designed for kids such as spas, fitness centers, and bars and lounges in the evening.

While quite a few cruise ships have educational and fun programs for children, adults are entitled to fun and valued time alone, too! Call America’s Vacation Center today to find your perfect vacation where you can count on a relaxing getaway.

• Oceania Cruises’ three mid-sized ships provide an elegant atmosphere and wonderful enrichment programs for adults including dance lessons, cooking demonstrations, and more.
• Uniworld River Cruises presents unique sailings through some of the world’s most picturesque rivers and will cruise you directly through the interior of China, Egypt, Europe, Russia, and more.
