The Ocean Monarch has a traditional on-board ambience and classical character. Originally built in 1955, she underwent a complete rebuild in 1975 to transform her into the elegant ship she is today - and was most recently refurbished in 1997. She is now offered for sale.
The ship is large, measuring 532 feet and yet carries only 400 passengers meaning there is plenty of space, both above and below deck. She offers spacious and well-appointed public areas, all cabins have a bath as well as shower and offers the same range of facilities and high level of comfort and service you would expect from an ex-Page & Moy cruise ship.
Whether you choose to relax by the pool, enjoy a drink in one of the bars, watch a show in the Admiral Show Lounge or simply find a quiet corner in the intimate Rendezvous Bar, you are sure to enjoy Ocean Monarch.
