Review: APT Solara, a river ship that stands out from the crowd

Don't miss out on the headlines from Lifestyle. Followed categories will be added to My News. To be or not to be a river ship – that is the question. When Australian-owned travel company APT approached the ambitious build of its new twin ships the Solara and Ostara, the brief was to create something dramatically different and see Europe through an Australian's eyes. Designed for the continent's busiest route from Amsterdam to Budapest, the luxurious Solara certainly stands out from the crowd. Despite having to adhere to the Danube's strict ship dimensions – there are 68 locks to navigate along the Rhine-Main-Danube route – the Solara offers surprising variety, and is contemporary and stylish with subtle nautical touches, including a chic French-navy exterior. X SUBSCRIBER ONLY Set the scene Checking into the airy atrium is a dreamy experience. High ceilings and a skylight open up the all-white space. There is a marble water station, a circular marble table and a tiled floor centrepiece in the dimensions of a compass. A dramatic macramé-like hanging rope sculpture descends from the ceiling into the softly curved stairwell, and the walls showcase original landscapes by artist Greg Wood and pieces curated by Melbourne gallery Otomys. The design was conceived by renowned Melbourne firm Hecker Guthrie (their first project on a ship), and influenced by APT's co-owners and siblings Lou Tandy and Rob McGeary. The designer furniture is whimsical and elegant but comfortable – think Gervasoni and Casini – and it has instant wow factor. If money was no object, this is how I'd love my home to look. We took a canal tour through Amsterdam. The itinerary While the Solara's 15-day itinerary will traverse the Netherlands, Austria, Slovakia and Hungary, I'm only on board for four nights for the christening and 'shakedown' cruise. This is a test run of sorts, and we embark at Rotterdam under the Erasmus Bridge before sailing past green pastures and fields of wild yellow canola flowers to Kinderdijk to tour the idyllic working windmills (dating back to the 16th century). We dock overnight at quaint Dordrecht (one of the oldest cities in Holland), visit Lisse to catch the vivid annual spring tulip festival Keukenhof, and take a canal tour through Amsterdam, which is celebrating 750 years. Although the friendly crew is busily readying the final touches to the ship, and pumping out countless espressos from the shiny new La Marzocco coffee machine in The Salon, the whole thing feels flawless. With Solara's capacity for 154 guests (and 60 crew), no cabin feels like you are missing out. Picture: Supplied. The cabins There are three categories of suites: the plush Owner's Suites, the Balcony Suites and the wood-panelled Twin Window Suites, and each has a colour scheme inspired by the seasons. Thick carpets range from sage green for spring to dusky pink for autumn. Original prints of signature European shore excursions by Australian photographer Nick Wilkins (available to buy) adorn the walls and lend an antipodean lens. The bathrooms have an abundance of storage, enormous shower heads, floor-to-ceiling tiling and marble sink tops. Toiletries by sustainable Amsterdam brand Marie-Stella-Maris were sourced by Tandy herself. With Solara's capacity for 154 guests (and 60 crew), no cabin feels like you are missing out. Solara has seven bars and eateries, each of which feels like a top-notch restaurant or wine bar. Picture: Supplied. Food and drink Solara has seven bars and eateries, each of which feels like a top-notch restaurant or wine bar. Catering to Australian travellers who have curious palates and want variety and quality, APT engaged hospitality guru Monique Lane of Fellow Hospitality (collaborating with chef Stephen Seckold of House Made Hospitality). From the fare at Bistro Saison, to the degustation paired with top-notch wine in the Owner's Cellar, and the laid-back eats at Annie's Table (named for the owners' mother), the offerings are impressive. The Grüner Bar & Dining, which rises on hydraulics so it elevates above other ships in dock, is a surprising hit, with dishes such as pretzels with whipped ricotta and moreish focaccia with butter that melts in your mouth. All bread and pastries are baked on board daily, and the delicious ice-cream and gelato are handmade. It has a circular conversation pit around solar lanterns to resemble a campfire, a nod to APT's outback touring heritage. Picture: Supplied. The extras Along with a jewel-coloured spa/salon, gym, and daily shore excursions that are included, e-bikes for guests who want to explore independently are provided. The roof has a small circular heated pool and two levels for guests to enjoy, and the Daystar Deck is a standout.

What's hot The Grüner Bar & Dining has a great menu (the fish finger sambo is the hot ticket) and sitting in a vibing wine bar while enjoying the view is a highlight. What's not The square pillows on my bed were uncomfortable, although I learned later they were delivered by mistake and had been replaced before the first guests arrived. Checking into the airy atrium is a dreamy experience. Picture: Supplied. The verdict - 10/10 While I didn't sail the full itinerary, it's impossible to fault Solara. It's the most stylish river ship I've set foot on – the combination of Australian design, food and thoughtful inclusions is impeccable. The writer was a guest of APT Luxury Travel. Its 15-day Magnificent Europe cruise on Solara and Ostara, sailing Budapest to Amsterdam, starts at around $8495 twin share. Originally published as Review: APT Solara stands out from the crowd

Ukraine-Russia war latest: One dead and fourteen injured after Moscow launches overnight drone strike on Odesa

One person has died and 14 people left wounded after a Russian drone attack hit several high-rise apartment blocks in the Ukrainian port city of Odesa. Footage showed emergency services battling fires at one apartment block as they rushed to rescue civilians. They reported at least 10 drone strikes overnight. Odesa governor Oleh Kiper said there was damage to residential buildings, a higher education institution, a gas pipeline and private cars. Ukrainian state railways Ukrzaliznytsia reported that Odesa railway station was damaged during the attack, with power wires and rails damaged. Ukraine 's air force said Russia fired a total of 86 drones at Ukraine in its latest aerial attack, 70 of which were either shot down or lost. Officials in Ukraine's northeast city of Kharkiv also reported damage. Ukrainian politicians urged Kyiv 's western supporters to put more pressure on Russia to agree to a ceasefire in light of the latest attacks. 'With no meaningful consequences, Russia feels free to escalate. Every delay, every diluted sanction, every excuse for inaction is taken in Moscow as permission,' economics minister Yulia Svyrydenko wrote on X, sharing footage of the attack in Odesa. Moscow's defence ministry, meanwhile, claimed that Ukraine fired 61 drones at targets across Russia. North Korea will send 5,000 military construction workers to Russia, Kremlin says North Korea is sending 5,000 military construction workers and 1,000 sappers to Russia 's Kursk oblast, where Moscow is repairing widespread damage from a Ukrainian incursion, according to a top Kremlin official. Presidential security adviser Sergei Shoigu said the workers would help rebuild the strategic border region, which was invaded by the Ukrainian military last August and retaken by Russian forces earlier this year. The dispatch of the workers was discussed in Mr Shoigu's meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, state media outlet KCNA reported on Wednesday.

Below, you can see some pictures of the aftermath of those attacks. Tom Watling20 June 2025 09:24 Tried and tested in war: For European drone manufacturers, Ukraine is the place to be About once a month, French drone manufacturer Henri Seydoux makes what has become a necessary pilgrimage for many in his business — he goes to Ukraine. Because for drone technology, there is no harder place to survive than the frontlines of the war against Russia's invasion, where both sides are using unmanned aerial machines of all shapes and sizes to kill and to observe, reshaping modern warfare. Tried and tested in war: For European drone manufacturers, Ukraine is the place to be For European drone manufacturers, being able to say that their equipment has been tried in war by Ukrainian forces is becoming a sales pitch Tom Watling20 June 2025 09:00 At least six people, including 12-year-old, injured in Ukraine's Kharkiv While footage continues to come out from Ukraine's port city of Odesa following a large Russian drone attack, we bring you news from Kharkiv, where there have been additional casualties. The northeastern Ukrainian region, which borders Russia, is one of the most frequently bombed areas of the country. Its eponymously named capital is also home to some 1.3 million Ukrainians, making it the second largest city in the country behind Kyiv. Local officials said Russia launched at least eight strikes overnight on the region, injuring three people, including a 12-year-old and 17-year-old girl, in the city. At least six apartment blocks were damaged. Another three people were injured in villages outside the city but within the region. 20 June 2025 08:38 Olena Zelenska: Russia is turning our nights into a nightmare Olena Zelenska, the wife of Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky, has accused Russia of 'turning our nights into nightmares' with the latest aerial attacks. Russia has ramped up its assaults on Ukraine in recent weeks, even as Vladimir Putin has repeated claims he is interested in ending the war. Moscow says it is only striking military targets but footage last night showed civilians fleeing a residential apartment block after drones damaged the property and caused fires. 'Russia is deliberately turning each of our nights into a nightmare, trying to break our spirit. But Ukraine will persevere,' Ms Zelenska wrote on X. 'The future belongs to those who save, rebuild, and never give up.'

Jail for cleaner who caused more than €2k of damage to neighbour's car

Betco Aurelia (55) had denied the charge, saying she was not holding her keys, and she was simply trying to manoeuvre her bike in a narrow space between two cars. A cleaner scraped the side of a neighbour's car with a key, causing over €2,000 worth of damage, as she struggled to bring her bicycle into her apartment, a court heard. Betco Aurelia (55) had denied the charge, saying she was not holding her keys, and she was simply trying to manoeuvre her bike in a narrow space between two cars. Judge David McHugh said that what Aurelia did was 'despicable' and he jailed the defendant for 28 days. Aurelia was found guilty of criminal damage at Tory Square, Waterville, in Blanchardstown on September 3, 2024. Blanchardstown Courthouse News in 90 Seconds - June 20th The victim told Blanchardstown District Court that her car was damaged shortly after 10pm, and CCTV of the incident was shown to the court. The victim identified Aurelia, who was her neighbour, as the culprit from the CCTV footage. The victim said Aurelia approached the apartment complex holding her bike and walked the bike between two cars. The victim claimed Aurelia scraped the side of the vehicle with a key, causing €2,268 worth of damage. In her evidence, Aurelia denied damaging the car. She said it was very hard to walk between the two cars holding the bike. She said she did not have any keys in her hand, and the CCTV did not show her damaging the car. Aurelia said the CCTV showed her moving her bike, so as to avoid hitting the car. Judge McHugh said he was satisfied from the CCTV that Aurelia had an object in her right hand and she had run it along the area of the car. The court heard that the defendant, a divorced mother of two, had never been in trouble before. She worked as an office cleaner, and was a stranger to the courts system, her lawyer said, asking the judge to be as lenient as possible. Judge McHugh said what Aurelia did was 'despicable'. Recognisances were set for an appeal.
