Scenic Eclipse Celebrates Five Years of Luxury Cruising

Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours is marking the fifth anniversary of its flagship vessel, Scenic Eclipse. Since its debut in August 2019, the ultra-luxury yacht has set a high standard in ocean cruising, offering unmatched luxury and adventure on the high seas.

Scenic Eclipse embarked on its maiden voyage from Reykjavik in August 2019 and was officially christened by Dame Helen Mirren in New York City a month later. Designed to accommodate up to 228 guests, the vessel is renowned for its opulent amenities and innovative features.

The 5,290-square-foot Senses Spa on Scenic Eclipse is a highlight, offering a range of wellness treatments, along with a fully equipped gym, Pilates and yoga studio, and ten diverse dining options. The ship also boasts onboard helicopters and custom-built submersibles, enhancing the luxury travel experience with unique exploration opportunities.

In March 2023, Scenic Eclipse was joined by its sister ship, Scenic Eclipse II, which introduced several enhancements. These include an expanded Senses Spa, a redesigned Sky Deck featuring private cabanas, a Sky Bar, and a Vitality pool, further elevating the luxury experience.

Glen Moroney, founder and chairman of Scenic Group, reflects on the milestone: “Since the launch of Scenic Eclipse in 2019, we have set the benchmark for ultra-luxury ocean cruising. Our teams at MKM Yachts and our dedicated crew are proud of the continuous innovation and exceptional experiences we have delivered over the past five years. We are committed to establishing luxury yachts as a major growth category in ocean cruising, including our expansion with Emerald Cruises and the forthcoming Emerald Kaia.”

Scenic Eclipse’s five-year journey highlights the ongoing evolution of luxury cruising, with the brand continuing to push boundaries and set new standards in the industry.
