Crown and Emerald Princess’ Sanctuary, a private outdoor area reserved for adults, will be added to the entire fleet of Princess ships, the cruise line announced.  Beginning this summer, the line’s trademark retreat will be added to Island Princess, followed by Grand Princess and Star Princess by the end of the year.  Additional ships will have The Sanctuary added through 2010.
 

While there’s a charge to use the Sanctuary’s facilities, it is divine: Sanctuary guests lounge amidst lush greenery, with the presence of gentle breezes, ocean waves, and softly piped-in spa music combining to further insulate the area with relaxation sounds.  Passsengers can relax on plush outdoor furniture including double loungers for couples, as well as deluxe chaise lounges and chairs.  Staff are on hand to to provide everything from a chilled face towel and Evian water atomizers, to a menu of healthy beverages and fare plus personal MP3 players with noise canceling headphones available loaded with themed playlists focused on relaxation for those who want to escape with music.In addition, The Sanctuary features two outdoor private cabanas where guests can also take advantage of the exclusive Lotus Spa Services at The Sanctuary, including sybaritic favorites such as a Deep Tissue Muscle Massage, a relaxing Swedish Massage or a Full Body Lotus Massage especially for couples.

For me, relaxation is what cruising is all about.  Would you pay to use this facility?
