On board the Porto Mirante, guests have access to two restaurants and a fitness room with state-of-the-art equipment.

There are 24 spacious cabins on both the Diamond Deck and the Ruby Deck, each with a French balcony inviting you to enjoy the beautiful view.

Freshly prepared dishes made with local ingredients are graciously served along with a curated selection of regional wines. Breakfasts on the Porto Mirante are presented service à la française, with a bounty of unique and tasty options that will have you heading back to the buffet ‘just one more time.’ As part of our all-inclusive concept, selected alcoholic drinks and high-quality, non-alcoholic drinks (mineral water, soft drinks, juices, various coffee specialties, tea, and cocoa) and snacks are available to enjoy all day.
