Cloud - passanger cruise sailing ship

The Sea Cloud is a glorious and gracious sailing yacht, a four-masted bark, custom built in 1931 by the business magnate E.F. Hutton for his wife the heiress, Marjorie Merriweather Post. Her sleek, snow-white hull elegantly curves from stem to stern and her masts stretch high into the sky. The ship’s decks offer the grandeur of rich mahogany, teak and gleaming brass and the magnificent golden eagle figurehead seems poised to fly across the waters. The opulence continues in the public areas and original cabins with antique furnishings, elegant fireplaces and bathrooms of Carrara marble with golden fixtures. The newer cabins also offer a high degree of comfort and luxury with rosewood and brass décor, marble baths and large windows. Personal service and fine amenities are the hallmarks of a Sea Cloud cruise and guests are pampered with deluxe linens and bathrobes, complimentary fruit in their cabins and complimentary fine wines served with lunch and dinner. A nostalgic romanticism permeates the Sea Cloud evoking the glories of the Golden Age of Travel. Music from the ships own Steinway upright piano wafts from the elegant dining room where you enjoy fine international cuisine. Other shipboard facilities include a well-stocked boutique, a cozy library and the delightful bar on the Lido Deck where you can relax or sunbathe in comfortable deck chairs.
