What Travelers Say About Silver Ray
Reviews of the ship itself — the same for every Silver Ray sailing. Based on 85 discussions.
Silver Ray is the second of Silversea's radical Nova class, delivered in mid-2024 as the twin to Silver Nova, and it represents the line's bet on a brighter, more contemporary kind of luxury. The ship's horizontal layout and vast glass walls make a 54,700-ton vessel carrying just 728 guests feel almost private, and with one of the highest space ratios afloat, crowding simply isn't a concept on board. The destination-driven S.A.L.T. program - a restaurant, bar and cooking lab that reinvent themselves for each region - is what most distinguishes it from other luxury ships.
What People Love
- One of the highest space ratios in cruising - about 75 gross tons per guest - and travelers feel it: reviewers count more sunbeds than they've ever seen for 728 passengers
- The S.A.L.T. culinary program is the headline act: menus, cooking classes and cocktails that change with each destination, unique to Silversea
- Horizontal, glass-heavy Nova-class design keeps interiors flooded with light and connected to the sea - repeat luxury cruisers call it the most beautiful modern luxury ship
Common Complaints
- Food and service consistency divides reviewers - some sailings report flawless meals, others describe slow dinners and misfires odd at this price
- The contemporary Nova-class aesthetic isn't for everyone; longtime Silversea guests miss the classic, clubby feel of the older fleet
- Evening entertainment is thin - a small production cast and Silver Note jazz, but the ship is largely quiet by 11pm
