Broker Review
Onboard visit
A contemporary mix of marble, leather, and dark wood set against crisp white contrast gives GALA I real polish. The cabins take a calmer, more minimalist approach — bright, airy, and almost hotel-like — and the master suite includes its own steam bath. Up on the sundeck, a big dining table is a great spot for breakfast, with a bar and pop-up TV close by.
