Stealing away on an exotic cruise to a tropical paradise can be a vacation that you will remember for the rest of your life. It may come as a shock to you that this dream can become a reality a lot easier than you might think, because the beautiful pink sandy beaches and clear blue waters of Bermuda are only six hundred miles away from the South Carolina coast.

But what is considered a perfect cruise for young singles could prove to be a nightmare for families with small children. Similarly, seniors may find a more sedate and relaxed pace to be perfect for their taste, while honeymooning couples headed for Bermuda could easily find the same atmosphere to be extremely unromantic.

I intend to look at a number of vital elements that need to be included if you are to experience the ultimate Bermuda cruise, as well as the various programs and special offerings that can help all kinds of vacationers to enjoy the experience to the fullest.

For instance, singles traveling alone will undoubtedly consider the perfect Bermuda cruise to involve lots of late night partying. Well most ships have about five or six different bars and lounges, but one Bermuda cruise features an amazing S-I-X-T-E-E-N bars and lounges. Holy Guacamole! It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know which ship would be more fun for the singles set.

And it's exactly the same when it comes to swimming pools. A number of ships only have one swimming pool, but it's really clear that the singles crowd will have a much better time and a far greater selection of potential partners on one of the two Bermuda cruise ships that contain four swimming pools. There's sure to be a lot more poolside action on those babies.

But for families, what an ideal Bermuda cruise should be like is quite different. For instance, in the evening most parents will expect to be able to leave their kids with a babysitter. It's assumed that the cruise line will supply this service. Unfortunately for some unhappy travelers, this is not the case with one of the Bermuda cruise lines. A parent of young children would find it less than ideal to be on one of their ships.

Teens can also have a hard time being stuck with their parents all of the time, so it's pretty perfect that a handful of the cruise lines offer 'Bermuda Teen Shore Excursions' so the wild ones can go off on their own for a while. If you're a parent you need to make sure you're booked on one of those ships.

Senior's on the other hand, unlike families and singles, consider the ultimate Bermuda cruise to be quite different. They much prefer their vacation to be conducted at a more relaxed pace.

But not all of the so called cultural enrichment classes that are offered to seniors are as perfect as they are touted to be. They don't all cover such interesting things as wine tasting, digital photography, foreign languages, oil painting and archeology. In fact, some Bermuda cruise ships don't have any classes at all and just settle for backgammon and shuffleboard. That doesn't seem too perfect to me.

Now if a senior is a golfer, they will be delighted to discover that a small handful of cruises provide a golf pro, along with the latest simulator technology to help him improve your swing. One large cruise line even went so far as to build a driving range that can be used during the day and at night. But be aware that, for some unexplained reason, some companies have absolutely no golf amenities at all.

It has often been said that stealing away on a Bermuda cruise, and watching the sun setting over the ocean with the one you love by your side, is the most romantic thing in the world, so it doesn't surprise me that Modern Bride magazine voted Bermuda as one of the best honeymoon resort destinations in the world.

If you're looking for the ideal honeymoon you will want to book yourself on one of two ships that have spa treatments that you can have in the privacy of your cabin. You may also want to be on one of the ships that offers more than a single rose. How about a dozen? And if you really want that special treatment, how would you like a private invite from the captain of your ship to take a tour of the bridge? I think these are some of the special touches that can ensure you have the ideal Bermuda honeymoon cruise.

I have touched on a few of the key elements that go into ensuring that your vacation experience in Bermuda is as awesome as you're hoping it will be, and ideally suited to your personality and lifestyle. And now you know that armed with the right information you don't have to settle for anything less than the ultimate Bermuda cruise.

It is painfully clear that each of the cruise lines, and in fact each of the different ships have decided to cater to very different groups of vacationers. Naturally I can't cover all of the things to be aware of in this brief article, but if you want more information, particularly the names of the specific ships I mentioned above, then please visit me at the website mentioned below and you will be certain to find the perfect Bermuda cruise for you.
