The Azamara Quest was initially launched in 2000 as the R7 for upscale Renaissance Cruise Line. After the demise of Renaissance the ship went through several ownership changes until finally being assigned by Royal Caribbean Cruise Line to the Celebrity Brand. Celebrity decided to launch a niche brand somewhere between Crystal Cruises and its own Celebrity Cruise Line in cruising experience. After extensive upgrades the Azamara Quest entered service in October 2007, a few months after its sistership the Azamara Journey entered service. Dark wood accents which gave the original ships their small English Inn ambiance were retained but service levels went upscale. Stateroom butlers behave as if the guest is their only responsibility. Specifically designed to be smaller and more sleek than most cruise ships, Quest, like her sister ship, Journey, is filled bow-to-stern with wondrous luxuries and appointments that enhance your voyage of discovery-making it one that you won't soon forget.

Quest boasts two specialty restaurants, concierge amenities, our Spa and Wellness Center, piano bar, Wine Bar, live entertainment, daily enrichment programs (such as evening lectures), and much more. Satisfy your appetite for luxury and adventure on board Quest

We just came back from our Azamara cruise and though we always cruised with Celebrity we were glad we gava Azamara a chance.
Now Azamara has smaller ships which made us nervous as we often like the new big ships. Though it was nice to not have so many floors to climb from our stateroom. It helped us to stay in shape. If you want the specialty dining be sure to make your reservation early as space goes quickly for the popular dates. The food onboard was excellent and I really enjoyed the dinner and buffets. The ship has all the same amenities as the big ships but they are just smaller and less people. The ports were excellent and we enjoyed them all. Overall we really enjoyed our cruise on the Azamara Quest and will be looking forward to another cruise on her in the fall.

Well I have been on a lot of cruises over the years and so I was curious to try Azamara as I love Celebrity and thought they would be even better. The room itself was nice and my wife did like the fresh flowers. The bathroom was a bit on the small side but okay. Our attendant was wonderfull and really deserved a raise. Though we found service through the ship to be spotty at best. Some of the servers remembered our names and went out of their way to help us. Others just went out of the way and avoided helping anyone. Unfortunately there were more that avoided than helped.

The Dining room was a bit of a mess. It took forever for our order to be taken and when we got our food it just was plopped down as the waiter was off in a hurry. I don't think it was just our waiter I think there were too few waiters for the number of tables that they had to serve. Azamara hire some more waiters.
The activities were good and my wife enjoyed the trivia contests.
Drinks are expensive onboard especially with their 18% gratuity added on. I found I had less drinks then I normally would.
The nice part about a small ship is that there are fewer people getting on and off in each port. Not like the big ships where 3000 people are all pushing to leave and get on. It was much more relaxing and we found we enjoyed our excursions much more.

Would I sail with Azamara or recommend this ship, no. I would go back to Celebrity or Princess anyday over Azamara.
