Oceania Cruises celebrates 20th anniversary with new luxury ships
By Shana Devleschoudere
Riviera, the evolution of perfection
The completely refurbished Riviera offers an unprecedented level of luxury and elegance. Refurbished from top to bottom, all cabins and suites exude a warm, sophisticated ambience, from bathrooms redesigned in Italian marble to fabrics and furnishings of the highest quality, all enriched with design accents that exude the characteristic class of Oceania Cruises. At 27 m2, veranda cabins are also the most spacious standard cabins at sea.
The Riviera's public spaces have also been re-inspired. The lounges, bars and atmospheric restaurants have been elegantly redecorated, taking the social and dining experience to an even higher level. With its glittering chandelier, plush carpets and luxurious leather armchairs, the Grand Dining Room exudes a new sense of grandeur. The outdoor dining experience has also been completely revamped with a charming Trattoria where you can enjoy wood-fired pizzas, succulent grilled Italian specialties and the most delicious desserts.
The Riviera, better than ever, will sail to Asia for the first time in its history, where 25 unique voyages are planned, ranging from 10 to 82 days, focusing on cultural immersion and culinary excellence.
Fleet refinement with Allura
Oceania Cruises is delighted to present the Allura, an impressive new five-star ship that will set sail for the very first time in spring 2025. The introduction of the Allura follows the acclaimed launch of sister ship Vista in May 2023, and brings the premium shipping line's total fleet to eight first-class ships. Renowned Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri will build the ship, which can accommodate 1,200 guests. The Allura's name reflects the excitement at the start of a new voyage, the allure of mystery and the unknown. The luxurious ship symbolizes Oceania Cruises' identity and offers an unrivalled cruising experience.
In keeping with Oceania Cruises tradition, the Allura will serve the finest gastronomy at sea. The décor is tasteful, and guests enjoy a high level of attentive, personalized service. With two crew members for every three passengers, Allura exceeds all service expectations. Highlights of the new ship include a series of innovative new restaurants such as the Aquamar Kitchen, offering tasty and healthy dishes, and the luxury restaurant Ember, serving American classics revisited. As usual on other ships, all restaurants are always all-you-can-eat at no extra charge. The spacious and thoughtfully designed cabins and suites on board are also a major asset of the Allura.
In spring 2023, Allura's inaugural season will be unveiled with an extraordinary palette of established and boutique destinations, spanning the splendor of the Mediterranean's historic cities to the charms of the Americas' vast mosaic.
