Star Clippers: Star Clipper

Overview

With its bright, brass fixtures, teak-and-mahogany paneling and rails, and antique prints and paintings of famous sailing vessels, Star Clipper's interior decor reflects the heritage of grand sailing ships.

Lighted from overhead by porthole-shape skylights, an atriumlike effect is created by the central opening in the piano bar, which leads to a graceful staircase and the dining room one deck below. The centerpiece of the vaguely Edwardian-style library is a belle epoque-period fireplace.

The Piano Bar is noted for being intimate and cozy. The Tropical Bar, one of the most popular areas on board, is the center of social activity, for predinner cocktails and late-night socializing and dancing. It's the covered outdoor lounge adjacent to the open deck space, where local entertainers often perform.
