Pacific Pearl's spring makeover
After a short two-week dry dock at Sydney's Garden Island in August, Pacific Pearl has emerged with some new furnishings and exciting features. As part of the multi-million-dollar makeover, 10 pairs of connecting cabins have been fitted, which is exciting news for families and groups of friends planning their next cruising holiday.
The cabin configurations are quad-quad, twin-quad or twin-twin bedding, so no matter the dynamics of the group you're travelling in, there is a connecting cabin to suit. These new cabins are expected to be very popular, particularly over the coming holiday season.
