Spa
Otium, the cruise line’s Roman-inspired wellness program, boasts all-new enhancements on Silver Nova, including brand-new in-suite experiences. Valuing wellness and indulgence over restriction, as the Romans did, Silver Nova’s Otium experiences are designed to offer sensory relaxation and enable guests to enjoy the aromas of essential oils from invigorating shower streamers. There’s also a collaboration with La Bottega and master perfumers such as Azzi Glasser, Mark Buxton and Christophe Laudemaiel, offering guests unparalleled luxury at sea.
The Pool Deck
