MsCrystalina Posted January 11, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I received an email regarding the new NOVA yesterday. Very beautiful lounges, dining venues and staterooms. Walls of glass including elevators! Hope is on schedule as will board in mid -October! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawntrdr Posted January 11, 2023 #2 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I see that they took the bar out of the Atlantide and have established a totally separate bar outside of SALT and Atlantide called The Shelter. It looks like a prime place to wait for your seating, although I suspect is it also set up to be reserved for private events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here you would have people running around trying to feed people and make them as comfortable as you can for the night. Oh wait a minute….. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawntrdr Posted January 11, 2023 #4 Share Posted January 11, 2023 It's also placed at the bottom of a three-story atrium - that will be different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randyk47 Posted January 12, 2023 #5 Share Posted January 12, 2023 My initial reaction is “too big”. We started 11 years ago on the Silver Wind which was a significant downsizing from our previous Holland America ships. Loved it and loved the small intimate spaces. Took a few cruises on the Silver Spirit pre-stretch and while bigger than the Wind it never felt crowded or overly large. In four days we’ll be on the Silver Dawn which will be our first “Muss” class Silversea cruise. We’ll see how we feel about the larger ships soon. The Silver Nova spaces look very nice and it may be fine but I still cringe a bit at bigger and bigger ships in the Silversea fleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Randy, I know you board Dawn as I disembark her.......I love everything about this ship and hope you will too. I am booked on Nova later this year and yes, she is bigger but I think she will be amazing......(just my opinion). I prefer all the larger ones to Wind, Whisper, etc. Nice to have choices😀 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ronrick1943 Posted January 14, 2023 #7 Share Posted January 14, 2023 We’re booked on the Nova for Christmas and New Years—-We were really looking forward to this ship, we are on the Spirit now, I only hope with the new ship they really look at the restaurants. The Spirit is truly disappointment in this area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall the specific date, but it's Barcelona>Lisbon in mid-September. I think we booked it (and you booked yours) while we were on the Whisper together and the Nova itineraries came out. 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
