Overview
Fred. Olsen’s flagship Bolette is everything that loyal guests have come to expect from a Fred. Olsen ship. Proudly bearing the name of Fred. Olsen Jr.’s great-great-grandmother, as many other Olsen vessels have over the years, she exudes classic, elegant style in her exterior and interior design, features spacious and comfortable public areas, and has all the facilities and special touches you need for a relaxing and enjoyable holiday. While she’s one of the largest ships, by overall size, in the Fred. Olsen fleet, Bolette has capacity for less than 1,400 guests. So, in keeping with Fred. Olsen’s smaller-ship ethos, you’ll find that you’re not overcrowded on board, and have plenty of space in which to indulge yourself in the stylish dining venues, enjoy a glass of your favourite tipple and fantastic entertainment at the bars, lounges and theatres, and while away the hours by the all-season pool. And of course, with the friendly staff providing personal, attentive service, there’s an intimate feel to the on board experience too.

Food & Drink
Dining experiences aboard Bolette offer something for everyone; from perfectly-cooked breakfasts to sumptuous five-course a la carte dinners. Bolette's main restaurant is a grand two-tier venue with a classical, elegant décor; which makes the ideal setting to enjoy both intimate and large group dining and the attentive service. You can also choose to dine in any of other supplementary venues or perhaps at the more relaxed buffet restaurant. The dress code is casual by day and the evenings are smart-casual except for the Formal Nights. There are eleven stylish and comfortable bars and lounges on Bolette; providing plenty of choice and variety. Each bar and lounge offers a home-from-home feel, relaxed ambience, and a great selection of alcoholic and soft drinks. The two-tiered main evening show lounge allows you unspoilt views of the vibrant after-dinner shows on stage.
Entertainment
There's plenty aboard Bolette to entertain you day through until night. Relax by the all-season swimming pool or in a bubbling Jacuzzi. Pamper your mind and body with an aromatherapy massage in the spa. Stay active as you practice your tennis serve or shoot a few basketball hoops on the sports courts. The Culinary Theatre hosts engaging cookery classes and demonstrations. When the evening arrives; take a seat in the stylish lounges and theatre to enjoy live shows, ranging from music and cabaret to quick-fire stand-up comedy. Or simply unwind as you sip your favourite drink and listen to soothing live acoustic music.

Kids & Teens

Children of 6 months and over are very welcome on our ships. On peak-time holiday cruises, our Little Skippers Club keeps kids between 5 and 11 years old entertained with a variety of fun activities. They will enjoy arts and crafts, discos, treasure hunts and loads more, all run by our friendly team of hosts and hostesses*.

A list of the day's events are included in the Little Skippers Club's mini-version of the Daily Times, which also shows the separate pool times for kids. Activities also stretch across the evenings, to suit the individual needs of families on board. Please note: our Little Skippers Club also welcomes children under 5, however parents must provide supervision at all times. The club operates subject to minimum numbers being achieved.

*All of our Little Skippers Club hosts are Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checked. 

**Please note we will not be operating any Little Skippers clubs aboard our Welcome Back sailings this summer. This is because cruising restart guidelines require all guests, including children, to remain in their household or dining bubbles on board.
