Oceania Cruises Marina Earns 5-Star Rating from Berlitz
With a total score of more than 1,700 points, which translates to a 5-star rating, Marina has joined an elite group of vessels that belong to the Berlitz “Five-Star Club,” representing the highest rated ships in the world.

“We are honored that Marina has been recognized in the 2012 Berlitz Complete Guide to Cruising & Cruise Ships,” said Kunal S. Kamlani, the line's president. “We continue to raise the bar and redefine the upper-premium cruise category and Berlitz' rigorous rating system demonstrates that we are succeeding.”

Marina set cruise industry standards with elegantly appointed lounges and restaurants and veranda staterooms that are the largest at sea. Designed for epicureans, the ship features a total of 10 dining venues, six of which are open-seating gourmet restaurants; all at no additional charge. Riviera, a sister ship, will debut in April 2012.

“It is really good to see a new entry into the Berlitz ‘Five-Star Club' due to Oceania Cruises' major investment and focus on the finely detailed furnishings aboard this new mid-sized ship, combined with the highest regard for and attention to the dining and culinary aspects of the cruise experience,” said Douglas Ward, author of the prestigious guidebook.
