The Fragata Bar is decked out with all kinds of sailing regalia and the perfect place to relax before or after dinner. The staff behind the bar can serve up your favourite drink and the gentle piano music will create the perfect atmosphere in which to relish the idea of doing nothing.

Live music fills this spacious lounge in the evening, offering an alternative to the shows in the Broadway Salon. There’s also a dance floor on which you can showcase your best moves.

The Panorama Bar can be found opposite the pool area and offers plenty of refreshing drinks to enjoy during those lazy afternoons on board Monarch.

Stunning views in every direction make the 360° Lounge one of the best places to sit and watch the world drift by. There is also a bar serving a choice of soft and alcoholic drinks and the friendly staff will be more than happy to rustle up your preferred cocktail.

Guests staying in a Royal, Deluxe or Grand Suite will have exclusive access to the Waves Yacht Club, whilst those in a Junior Suite can also pay a surcharge of £38pp to join them.

The Broadway Lounge will provide your main source of entertainment in the evenings. This two-tiered venue offers plenty of seating and a variety of different shows. You could be wowed by a magician, made to laugh your head off by a comedian or simply stunned by a polished musical performance.

The Marina bar is at the opposite end of the pool deck to the Panorama Bar and provides equally welcomed refreshments.

After the nightly performance has finished in the Broadway Lounge there is no need to head off to bed if you don’t want to. The Cyan Nightclub can offer somewhere where you can dance the night away and have a few more drinks with friends.
