Silver Wind deck plans

MS Silver Wind (1995-built, last refurbished in 2021) is the second and among the oldest Silversea ships - preceded by the sister-ship Silver Cloud. Silversea Wind and Cloud ships are also the smallest in the fleet – only 16,800 GT, with a capacity of around 300 passengers. This is around half the size of the fleet's largest vessels Silver Spirit and the new Silver Muse (2017). Like all Silversea cruise ships, Wind is an ultra-luxury cruise vessel operated with all-inclusive deals, top luxury hotel amenities and impeccable service.

Silver Wind cruise ship deck plan shows a total of 148 staterooms (all suites) for 274 passengers (max capacity is 355) served by 197 crew-staff. The boat has 9 decks (6 passenger-accessible, 5 with cabins), 4 restaurants, 5 lounges and bars, 1 swimming pool, 2 Jacuzzis (outdoor whirlpool hot tubs), 4 elevators.

One passenger-use laundromat (butler- and self-service laundry facility) is located on deck 4. Detergent is provided.

Silver Wind is among the world's best "top luxury" cruise choices on the premium market. Silversea's all-inclusiveness means that all the onboard drinks are free of charge (including wines, premium spirits, champagnes, the in-room bar and fridge), tipping/gratuities.

When booking your Silver Wind cruise deals, it is advisable to make also dining reservations for the specialty restaurant(s) you wish to visit. Those are La Champagne (French /20 seats) and La Terrazza (Italian /70 seats).
