Luxury cruises are the definition of high living. Not only is your every whim taken care of, but you're also being sailed around the world on a huge wonderful ship. It is an opportunity to really let go of your worries as you visit exotic ports and swim in warm seas. Even if you just stick to swimming in the cruise ship's pool, you still get to feel the warmth of tropical sun beating down on your back.
Luxury cruises aren't just a holidays in the sun though. Cruise ships, especially the premier ones, provide so much more, all in one package with your every need taken care of all in one place. You don't have to trudge down to a local restaurant where you wonder if the food will be any good, and you don't have to worry that there won't be anything fun for the kids to do. On a cruise ship you'll know exactly what to expect, and you'll find that you can expect the same level of service where ever cruise ships sail.
Of course, at the height of cruise sailing is the luxury cruise. On these cruises you shouldn't expect anything but the best it is a luxury cruise after all. The restaurants and buffets will be overflowing the best food that you can image available on a ship sailing the high seas, and you'll be able to spend the day shopping on board, heading out on excursions, dining at the captain's table, and having the time of your life. You can expect that your cabin on a luxury cruise will be freshly prepared, and you'll have no idea how the maids manage to change the linen so quickly and without being noticed even once.
In on-board spas you should expect to be pampered, and if you want to relax even more there is likely to be a sauna, a cinema, and every other sort of entertainment. If you want to be a little more active, then there are onboard gyms and activities like tennis, and perhaps even a rock-climbing course and flow-rider pool that allows you to surf; or at least it's somewhere to leave your kids for a day. But then in such a safe environment, you can give your kids the run of the whole ship and not worry.
