Oceania Cruises Unveils Transformation Plans for Oceania Marina

The 1,250-guest Oceania Marina enters dry dock in October 2026 to complete its transformation centered around elevating the guest experience. During the project, each stateroom will be redesigned and enhancements will be added throughout all public spaces. The end result will reflect Oceania Cruises’ commitment to residential luxury, timeless design and understated elegance. 

“At Oceania Cruises, raising the bar is not an initiative – it is our mindset,” said Jason Montague, Chief Luxury Officer of Oceania Cruises. “We are constantly refining the guest experience, from elevating our culinary offerings to creating more intimate, immersive ways to explore the world’s most iconic destinations. With OceaniaNEXT, we are reaffirming our commitment to modern luxury by ensuring every ship in our fleet reflects the refined style, attention to detail and thoughtful innovation that define our brand. This is how we continue to bring to life The Joy of Traveling Well.”

Oceania Marina’s reinvention is a huge milestone for Oceania Cruises, the world’s leading culinary- and destination-focused cruise line. This ship is the first upgrade in its OceaniaNEXT program, a fleetwide initiative aimed at elevating the complete guest experience. Updating and upgrading the current fleet will align with the design of forthcoming new-builds in the Oceania brand.
