Caviar on SeaDream Yacht Club

5. Caviar on SeaDream Yacht Club

The thing about room service on this line’s two small yachts is that you don’t actually need to be in your room. You can order it anywhere on the ship, even while lounging on a sunbed. While you could get a complimentary Yacht Club Sandwich with smoked salmon, shrimp, and crab, we say go for it and splurge on the caviar ($44 an ounce).
