Superstar Virgo
Who would know the Asian region better than Star Cruises, the only international cruise brand based in Asia? No need to convince Asian cruisers, they know when they’re on to a good thing. But, sooner or later, Australian cruise enthusiasts will succumb to the lure of the orient. For many, it is their first destination of choice. And you might prefer to let its mysteries unfold via the regional experts, Hong Kong-based Star Cruises. Besides, it makes sense to include an Asian cruise with a longer Asian tour.
With a fleet of 20 ships, Star Cruises specializes in four- and six-day regional itineraries that take in Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Cambodia.
One of the most popular cruise ships in the Star Cruises’ fleet is Superstar Virgo. It is described by the Berlitz Guide to Ocean Cruising as the most stunning and luxurious ship sailing year-round in the popular Southeast Asian region. This impressive ship appears to have effectively harnessed the formula of pleasing almost everyone who sails on her. She caters for all tastes, and succeeds in bringing a loyal clientele back for more.
Superstar Virgo carries 1870 passengers who can choose from 15 price categories. There are three decks dedicated to cabins with balconies. Other options for big spenders are lavish suite accommodation, or for the budget conscious, modest-price interior, no-view cabins.
Star Cruises’ ships are popular amongst the bet set, so it’s no surprise that there is a large casino complex on board as well as a “members only” gaming club for VIPs. Meanwhile, for those who fancy more active pursuits, there is a wrap-around strolling deck, a jogging track, golf driving range, and even basketball and tennis courts. There is also a high-tech gym, sauna and steam rooms, plus Roman spa and fitness centre.
Dining plays a key role in cruise passenger satisfaction. Superstar Virgo offers a vast range of choice. There are ten restaurants to choose from, each featuring different styles of cuisine, including Continental, Chinese, Italian and Indian.
Superstar Virgo is probably most aptly described as a floating leisure centre – and this it does very well, whether for singles, couples, or families.
