The elegant Silver Muse whispers luxury.

Beautiful Backdrop

Aboard the brand-new Silver Muse, my tuxedo-clad butler was concerned about a rubbed-out spot on my black suede boots. Jithin, from Mumbai, had already offered to unpack my bags, encouraged me to choose a designer soap, and brought the alternative-down pillows I had selected from the pillow menu. Every time I thanked him he responded, “a pleasure.”

“No worries, Jithin,” I said as he turned his focus to the task at hand. “Those boots are super old. And by the way, am I pronouncing your name correctly?” 

“I don’t care what you call me. Just call me when you need something,” he responded with a warm smile. 

This is the type of pampering that sets an ultra-luxury cruise apart, and it was evident, even on a 4-day, pre-christening sampler cruise aboard Silversea Cruises’ new flagship straight out of the shipyard.

Subtle Design

Silversea set out to do things different with this 596-guest ship, the line’s largest and first new build in eight years. While some competitors are going all Carrara marble, crystal chandeliers, and gold-plated glitz, Silver Muse is designed, in the words of the line’s officials, to “whisper luxury.”

With its subtle décor, the ship delivers an intangible sense of familiarity — you aren’t in a palace, but rather free to relax in what feels like someone’s very nice and spacious contemporary home.

The entire color scheme is calm (lots of taupe, cream, and seafoam green), the halls are wide, the woodwork light, and some spaces are downright vast — emphasizing that having room to spread out is itself a luxury.
