Oceania Cruises’ Marina has re-entered service after an extensive refurbishment that enhances its dining and hospitality offerings. Notable among these improvements are three newly introduced culinary venues: Aquamar Kitchen, a poolside ice cream parlour, and an al fresco pizzeria. Each venue contributes to Oceania’s aim of diversifying dining experiences on board, ensuring guests have access to refined yet relaxed dining options.
The newly appointed executive culinary director, Alexis Quaretti, expressed enthusiasm, stating, “The introduction of these three wonderful culinary venues on board Marina is just the start of an exciting new taste journey for Oceania Cruises.” This sentiment echoes Oceania’s strategy to highlight that ‘The Finest Cuisine at Sea’ does not solely equate to formal dining rooms but includes a variety of unique eateries.
Aquamar Kitchen, the latest signature restaurant for Oceania Cruises, debuted initially on the Vista. Available for breakfast and lunch without the need for reservations, its menu features a healthy selection including salads, wraps, yellowfin tuna tacos, and chicken sandwiches.
In a flexible dining approach, Waves Grill transforms into an al fresco pizzeria during the evenings, offering pizzas paired with fine wines for a leisurely dining experience. Concurrently, a new all-day ice cream parlour serves a variety of desserts on the pool deck, adding further to the laid-back and indulgent atmosphere.
Refurbishments extend beyond dining; the 124 Penthouse Suites have been revitalised with new closets, cabinetry, carpets, upholstery, and lighting. Enhancements have also touched public areas like Martinis, Horizons, The Grand Dining Room, and the Library, contributing to an upgraded and refreshed onboard ambience.
The comprehensive refurbishments of the Marina reaffirm Oceania Cruises’ commitment to elevating guest experiences with culinary and accommodation advancements.
