  With her distinctive traditional profile, the 800 passenger Ocean Countess joined the Cruise & Maritime Voyages fleet in Ocean Countess Reception areaApril 2010 under charter from the widely respected and long established Majestic International Cruises Group. The ship originally entered service as the Cunard Countess and became one of the best-known ships to sail the Caribbean Sea.   Cruise & Maritime Voyages aim to offer a more traditional and leisurely style ‘no fly’ cruising and maritime experience where the emphasis is very much on providing attentive service within a friendly ‘home from home’ atmosphere.

During the evening, the Boat House becomes a delightful venue for pre-dinner drinks and to chat with fellow passengers after another wonderful day ashore.
In addition, Ocean Countess provides a shopping gallery, internet café, gym with sauna and spa, and massage, hairdressing and beauty facilities. She offers extensive deck areas, deck games, a generous size heated swimming pool, two whirlpools and a pool bar.
