SAILING ON THE MARINA

Oceania Cruises, headquartered in Miami, Florida and owned by Prestige Cruise Holdings, is considered by many cruise travel experts to be one of the world class leaders with luxurious and upscale ships on the waters offering sumptuous accommodations,cuisine and white glove service that you expect in 4 and 5 star hotels.
In 2011, the cruise line will launch its latest ship, the Marina. The ship's look will be contemporary as opposed to its sister ships that boast a traditional style. The Marina will offer a luxurious and elegant design showcasing contemporary style at its finest.

One of my favorite blogs, The Meade Design Group interviewed Tocar's principal designers Susan Bednar Long and Christina Sullivan in August 2009. The firm's portfolio is very impressive.

Vista Suites

1200 sq. ft.


Currently, Oceania is in discussions with American further designer Dakota Jackson to redesign the Vista and Oceania suites. Personally, I love the current proposed look of these suites. I think they maintain an overall contemporary look but with modern interpretations on the classic style pieces in the room which adds warmth.

However, I'm confident Jackson will take it to another level with his ingenious eye for making fabulous interiors that make anyone feel as though its their personal space.

I contacted Oceania seeking information about the designs of the Penthouse Suites,Verandas and other staterooms as well as the ship's public areas.
