How our Bliss Filters work
American Cruise Lines has made sustainable cuisine a centerpiece of its "Cruise Local, Eat Local" initiative. American Star chefs produce fresh dishes for her guests while supporting local communities. The ship receives locally sourced ingredients, and menus are adjusted seasonally to make the best use of local fruits and vegetables. Meals are adjusted seasonally, prepared to order and served in the main dining room where every seat offers a panoramic view of the passing scenery.
The Grand Dining Room seats all passengers at the same time with four spacious lounges, and observation decks are frequented by guests who want to mingle with friends new and old. Open seating in the dining room encourages socializing.
On warm, sunny days, the top deck is a great spot for reading and chatting, with the shoreline often within view.
Exercise equipment is limited to a single exercise bike and a StairMaster. There's no pool, full gym, spa facilities or casino on American Star. Passengers get their exercise by going ashore and walking through the towns.
Three public lounges and plenty of open deck space create a sense of spaciousness onboard. The main lounge is the spot for the nightly cocktail hour and the evening lecture, it is the ship's social hub and a great venue for board games or chatting with shipmates. The two smaller lounges allow more intimate groups the opportunity to mingle before dinner or play card games. All three lounges are simply decorated with muted colors and comfortable, not extravagant furniture. Just forward of the main lounge is a small deck with a few chairs and tables where you can partake in libations and watch the sunset.
On this small ship cruise experience, your cabin will measure more than 200 square feet in size, and each has a large picture window and a private bathroom.
