Pool Bar
True to its name, this bar is a great place to drink champagne and/or martinis.




























The Champagne & Martini bar is located on deck five, with the bar being split into two distinct sides: the port side bar specializes in champagne and champagne cocktails, while the starboard side is where you can grab a mean martini. The bar is bright, lined with armchairs and tables, and at the center of the room is an open area that looks down onto the Rendezvous bar. You can even hear live music coming from Rendezvous, so there’s no need for a second live band to play here. The waiters here are experienced showmen in the art of juggling bottles and shakers while they whip up your drinks. It’s a pleasure to watch.
The two bar areas have different drink menus, but you can really get any drink you want on either side. Martini offerings range from classics to more unusual options like an espresso martini. Champagne cocktails include Bellinis, Rossinis, and Kir Royals. All champagne cocktails cost $8.50. Most martinis range from $6.50 to $10, but some may be more expensive depending on what you order.
There are martini tastings happy hour specials at the Champagne & Martini Bar, but the bar hosts no other planned events.
