Our journeys to South America have the rare ability to change personalities effortlessly. One night, South America flaunts its exuberance for life with hypnotic samba performances in cosmopolitan Rio de Janeiro. By morning, a more natural side of the continent emerges as Insignia calls on Ilha Grande, an unspoiled, orchid-draped sanctuary for wildlife.

Paradise. Feel it as the gentle winds curl over your sun-kissed skin somewhere between St. Lucia and Antigua. See it when snorkeling with tropical fish in the gin-clear waters off the Turks and Caicos. Or combine the Caribbean’s blissful insouciance with the passion of Central America on a voyage through the Panama Canal and along the Mexican Riviera.

WHERE THE HECK DID
THE R-SHIPS GO?
Our guests are big fans of the 684-passenger former Renaissance Cruises’ fleet, so we are often asked: Where did their eight ships go?? Oceania Cruises has done a fantastic job with three of these ships and is bringing it's own unique styles to these great vessels. Oceania’s combination of destination rich itineraries, the gourmet cuisine of Jacques Pepin, and inimitable upscale casual atmosphere has made her the hottest cruise line today.
Oceania Dining
IMAGINE dining under the frescoed ceilings of the Grand Dining Room with the indulgences of Chef Pépin. One night offers fresh Foie Gras Scallop, delicately sautéed and paired with a light buttery sauce scented with hibiscus petals. Entrée brings stuffed Pheasant Breast Ballotine: tender breast of pheasant stuffed with a morel duxelles, browned then roasted to perfection and set atop braised Savoy Cabbage. Finish with a lightly sweetened Parisienne-style compote of apples laced with Armagnac. The magic of a culinary artist.
STEAK suits your fancy? Oceania's Polo Grill features the finest dry-aged prime beef and chops, fresh local seafood, and vintage wines. In the intimate fashion of New York’s finest steakhouses. Warm mahogany, elegant table settings & impeccable service.
ITALY’s flair and essence is found in Toscana. With the savory best of Italy, Oceania’s chefs employ rustic technique with the finest regional Italian ingredients–aged Reggiano, sweet extra virgin olive oil and the freshest meats and produce–to create Tuscan masterpieces.
STARS come out, and the alfresco dining area of the Terrace Cafe transforms into the romantic Tapas on the Terrace. Find a savory buffet with authentic tapas, paellas and other flavorful specialties from Spain and the surrounding Mediterranean. Experience the flavors of Barcelona’s Las Ramblas in a private, relaxed setting. Dishes include Prawns sautéed in salsa Negra (a black peppercorn sauce) or Chorizo al Vino (spicy chorizo tamed with red wine). Taste the Mediterranean even in China.

A veritable oasis for the mind, body and soul, the Oceania Spa by Mandara elevates
pampering to a new level. The tranquil ambiance encourages you to happily succumb
to an array of rejuvenating treatments. Try an Elemis Aromapure Facial, which will
leave your face with a youthful, radiant glow. Or let the nimble fingers of an able
masseuse soothe away all the cares of the world. |
