<p>The line announced this week that its next ship will have several exclusive adult-only, Vegas-style venues that come with a charge. </p><p>The as-yet-unnamed, 4,200-passenger vessel, known as F3 and launching in 2010, will have five distinct nightspots in all, including: </p><p>-- The Ice Bar. Billed as the first true ice bar at sea, the frozen chamber (illustration above) will feature a bar, walls, tables, stools, glasses and life-size sculptures all made of ice. The exclusive venue will hold just 25 passengers at a time who will be given fur coats, gloves and hats to keep warm (the rooms temperature will not rise above 17 degrees). The as-yet-unspecified cover charge will include the cost of a drink or drinks, the line says.</p><p>-- The POSH Beach Club. Think Miami Beach cool. Passengers can purchase a day- or week-long pass to this outdoor venue, which is accessible by a private glass elevator (the price has yet to be determined). During the day, it's open for lounging in the sun on white-cushioned day beds and in private cabanas (with VIP hosts catering to your every whim). At night, it becomes an open air nightclub, complete with VIP bottle service and dancing.</p><p>&nbsp;-- Halo, the &Uuml;ber Bar. Garden and Courtyard villa guests have free access to this &quot;exclusive&quot; bar located at the top of the ship, but everyone else on board will pay a yet-to-be-set amount to get in it. The line says the &Uuml;ber Bar (illustrated at right) will showcase the best of the best, from the best liquors around the world to the best art featured and available for purchase with jewelry-clad servers displaying the best jewelry on board for purchase. </p><p>-- Bliss Ultra Lounge and Nightclub. This will be an enhanced version of the hopping Bliss nightclubs found on NCL's latest ships, the ones that famously include bowling alleys. At night, expect shadow dancers, a Las Vegas vibe and -- new on the F3 ships -- gaming tables with dealers. NCL says Bliss will not have a cover charge. </p><p>-- Spice H20. An adults-only, outdoor complex located at the back of the ship that will include a pool and a huge video screen. During the day, passengers can soak up the sun in lounge beds around the pool while enjoying chill-out Asian tunes and Asian-inspired cuisine in Chinese to-go containers. But at night it turns into an Ibiza-inspired beach club with live entertainment, dancing and dinner served table-side or directly on beds. Like Bliss, Spice H20 will be open to all without a fee.</p><p>Norwegian's announcement was overshadowed this week by Royal Caribbean's big Oasis of the Seas press conference in New York (Norwegian's press office inexplicably waited until just before the Royal Caribbean event was set to begin to send out details of the nightspots, guaranteeing that the news would be overlooked). But, nevertheless, the new venues are groundbreaking. </p><p>&nbsp;</p>
