Hebridean Island Cruises
Hebridean Princess is a small, but perfectly formed cruise ship, designed and dedicated specifically to explore Scotland's Western Isles. She has made a huge name for such a small ship, taking guests to some of the most remote islands, the grandest lochs and more, in addition to bays that are well beyond the scope of larger vessels.
The ideal companion for exploring the wild Scottish coast and countryside, Hebridean Princess has the type of comfort on board that you could expect to find in a country house; the maximum number of guests is just 50. With a decor of coordinating fabrics, furnishings and colours, Hebridean Princess is the definition of good taste.
With an impressive, almost one-to-one crew-to-guest ratio, a personal touch and constant attention is assured, which is yet again another quality which sets this impressive five-star vessel apart from her contemporaries.

Life On Board
After an energetic walk ashore, the comfort and homeliness of Hebridean Princess welcomes you back as though to your own home.
Hebridean Princess is best described as a "floating country house" where fifty like-minded guests can mix in a convivial atmosphere.
The Tiree Lounge, with its intimate bar, is the social focal point; beautifully designed and filled with soft armchairs and welcoming sofas providing cosy areas grouped around perhaps the most extraordinary feature of the ship – a brick inglenook fireplace!
In the peaceful wood-panelled Library a timeless feel has been created, using leather, unique upholstery and dark woods and should a spot of solitude appeal, there is a fine selection of reference and general interest books to be enjoyed.
The emphasis on low key entertainment is complemented by the gentle art of conversation and the certain knowledge that fellow guests have chosen this style of holiday as much for what it doesn’t offer as for what it does.
The Cabins
Elegantly decorated and furnished, Hebridean Princess cabins are individually designed to make the most of the available space. Poetically named after Scottish isles, castles, lochs and sounds, they are amongst the most spacious for vessels of her size.
All cabins offer ample wardrobe space, including a small personal safe, drawers and a dressing table, hairdryer, trouser press, iron and ironing board, tea/coffee-making facilities and television. There is also a refrigerator stocked with a selection of soft drinks with fresh milk supplied daily. For your added comfort and relaxation, bathrobes, slippers and a wide range of Molton Brown toiletries are also provided. All guests enjoy exactly the same high standard of service irrespective of cabin grade.
