Norwegian Pearl

Voted “Best New Cruise Port” in 2017 by Porthole Magazine, Harvest Caye in Southern Belize is the Caribbean's premier island destination. Cruisers can immerse themselves in natural beauty and culture on a 75-acre oasis featuring an expansive pool with a swim-up bar, salt-water lagoon for water sports, exclusive 7-acre beach, and exciting shore excursions ranging from zip lining across the island to snorkeling the world's second largest barrier reef. While it feels like an island experience, Harvest Caye is only a 15-minute boat ride from mainland Belize. Available tours include the Mayan archaeological ruins, a tropical spice farm, savannah ecotours by boat, rainforest river tubing and rafting excursions and more. Whether you opt for a day of fast-paced activity or prefer a day laying in the sun, Harvest Caye will surely impress.

If cruisers enjoy white sand beaches and turquoise Caribbean water, then cruisers don't want to miss out on Costa Maya. Located 100 miles south of Playa del Carmen along Mexico's Caribbean coast, this port has the beauty and feel of a private island. Rich in Mayan culture and best known for its jungles, beaches, and lagoons…it is truly unlike any other. As you exit the ship you will find restaurants, shops, two salt-water swimming pools, bars, as well as the Dolphin Park. Not only is there a ton to do right in the port itself, but just five minutes from there you will find the town of Mahahual, featuring a boardwalk lined with shops, restaurants, and boutique hotels. From scenic rafting, snorkeling, kayaking, catamaran sailing, and more…Costa Maya has it all.

Top 5: Destinations fit for spies

Live out your secret agent dreams while you perfect your plotting with these spy-inspired destinations

Book Accommodation

Featured hotels, izmailovo (gamma-delta).

Constructed to accommodate visitors to the 1980 Olympics, the concrete towers of the Izmailovo boast a staggering 8,000 rooms. Institutional in atmosphere, and located far out in the northern suburbs, the hotel is handy for the enormous Izmaylovo Market and has decent city centre links. There are several onsite restaurants and in-room Wi-Fi is available too.

Peking Hotel

Built in 1956 as a little sister to Stalin's Seven Sister skyscrapers, and intended as post-war headquarters for the secret police, Moscow's Peking Hotel is a heritage hotel with a small 'h', in a good location just northwest of the centre. Although slightly old-fashioned, its 130 rooms are comfortable enough, with satellite TV and en-suite bathrooms.

Warsaw Hotel

Although its location may not be one of Moscow's most picturesque, the Warsaw Hotel is convenient for Gorky Park. Considering the quality of the competition, this is one of the best cheap options in the city, with clean and comfortable rooms, albeit in a rather dated style. Wi-Fi is complimentary and the Oktyabrskaya Metro station is right next door.

Golden Apple

A boutique hotel on a refreshingly human scale, the Golden Apple offers imaginative styling and a personal touch that many 5-star hotels lack. Behind the baroque facade, its minimalist rooms are cosy, and there's an onsite restaurant and an open-plan bar too. Staff speak excellent English and there's Wi-Fi access, a gym and a sauna.

Historical Hotel Sovietsky

In the 1950s, Joseph Stalin decreed that the famous Yar restaurant should be upgraded to a hotel and the Historical Hotel Sovietsky was born. It quickly became a showcase for the image of sophistication that the Soviet government wished to present to the world, and its 107 rooms still conjures up the nostalgia of this period in history.

Hotel Danilovsky

It's hard to imagine a more atmospheric place to stay than the 12-century precincts of the historic Danilovsky Monastery. Set amidst chapels and gardens, the hotel is a modern construction, but the rooms are comfortable and all have a view of the stately monastery buildings. There's a sauna and bar onsite too.
