easyCruise: easyCruiseOne

Overview

From a small upmarket vessel designed to carry 100 passengers in comfort and luxury, easyCruiseOne was transformed by gutting the interiors and replacing them with spartan, modular cabins that sleep nearly twice as many passengers when fully booked. While the bright neon-orange hull emblazoned with "easycruise.com" acted in the past as a beacon to late-night revelers returning from shoreside restaurants and clubs, the garish look has undergone a transformation. A new graphite-gray paint job with discreet orange trim gives the ship a more refined appearance but shouldn't hamper the party spirit of its passengers. Even in its new livery, easyCruiseOneis easy to spot late at night—it's likely to be the only ship at the pier.

The ship's public spaces have also been redecorated and now have more of the look of a boutique hotel. While the ship now has a sauna, small spa, and Internet café, the list of what isn't on board is still longer than the list of what is. There's still no swimming pool, casino, library, or even entertainment.
