Overview

Why travellers choose the Iberotel Amara

The ship

With 29 rooms, Amara is the smallest ship we sell — a boutique cruiser for travellers who would rather share the sun deck with a few dozen people than a few hundred. It is run by the Jaz Hotel Group, and its rate does not change with the season.

Cabins

There are 27 cabins of about 15 m² and 2 larger suites of about 28 m². Cabins are air-conditioned, with a private bathroom with a shower and hairdryer, a minibar and panoramic windows onto the river.

Life on board

The pool and sun terrace are on the roof deck, and there is a main restaurant and a lounge bar. Meals are full board.

Questions about this ship

Iberotel Amara FAQ

How many cabins does Iberotel Amara have?

29 in total: 27 cabins of about 15 m² and 2 suites of about 28 m².

Why choose such a small ship?

Fewer guests on board than any other ship we sell, so the sun deck, the restaurant and the gangway are quieter. The trade-off is fewer facilities than a large ship.

Does the price change with the season?

No. Amara is quoted at one rate for the whole year.

Who runs the ship?

The Jaz Hotel Group.

How much does a cruise on Iberotel Amara cost?

From $700 per person sharing a double for 3 nights, and from $935 for 4 nights — the same rate all year. Christmas, New Year and Easter are priced separately.
