Scenic Eclipse & the Pursuit of Excellence

State-of-the-art technology, a wealth of world-class facilities, including two helicopters and a submarine for unrivalled exploration, and an expert Discovery Team combine to offer unprecedented levels of ultra-luxury on board, where we’ve gone above-and-beyond to create a truly all-inclusive experience unlike any other.

Intimate and luxurious, with every amenity you could wish for, you’ll be struck by a sense of space and serenity the minute you step on board Scenic Eclipse. The open-plan Scenic Lounge, located on Deck 4, is the perfect place to meet and unwind. Stylish flourishes, like Walter Knoll seating and Tom Dixon tables, complement a selection of over 100 of the finest world-renowned whiskeys, from Johnnie Walker blue label to fine Nikka Japanese blended whiskey. This expansive space is the heartbeat of the Discovery Yacht, where an impressive crystal quartz backlit bar is tended by expert mixologists waiting to create your perfect refreshment, all included, of course.

Make your way to Deck 10 where the spacious Sun Terrace offers breathtaking views of the unfolding vistas. Here, as a result of guest feedback, we’ve taken ultra-luxury to another level with the introduction of brand-new cabanas, deckchairs and a bar. The perfect place to unwind as you enjoy the warm weather, these stunning new additions showcase a continued commitment to providing the most luxurious of guest experiences.

 

Head to the new Panorama Bar before reclining, drink in-hand, or relax in one of two Vitality Pools. And, during warm weather cruises, cool off in the water on stand-up paddle boards, inflatable kayaks, a large inflatable trampoline, wakeboards and even water skis.

 

Your well-being is a focus echoed throughout all aspects of Scenic Eclipse, where rejuvenation takes on a whole new meaning. You’ll have complete access to the 550m² (5,920ft²) Senses Spa on Deck 6, where the temperature-controlled plunge pools introduce you to the art of Nordic bathing, and sun loungers welcome calmness from their prime location on the Spa Terrace. Unwind in separate male and female infrared steam rooms and saunas and enjoy a unique shower with separate shower-head functions and colour-change options to suit your mood.

 

If you crave the slower pace, head to the Observation Lounge overlooking the bow of the yacht. We’ve installed Swarovski telescopes to offer impressive sea views, so you can keep a lookout for what’s coming up on the horizon, play a game of chess or enjoy some reading with a nice cup of tea from the specialty tea station. There truly is a space on board to suit every taste, and your crew will be at your service to make sure you want for nothing.

Every one of Scenic Eclipse’s 114 spacious all-verandah suites sets the standard in ocean cruising accommodation. Elegantly appointed with a host of 6-star amenities, you’ll retire back to your king size Scenic Slumber Bed dressed in Egyptian cotton linens, after selecting your preferred pillow from the considered pillow menu.

 

Surpassing the standards of the finest hotels in the world, every Verandah Suite offer a generous 32m² (344ft²) of pure indulgence, while the 247m² (2,659ft²) two-bedroom Penthouse Suite comes complete with a spa pool and sun loungers on its private curved terrace, boasting the best views on board. In premier locations throughout the ship, the colossal Spa Suites are home to a four-poster bed, separate living room and Philippe Starck-designed spa bath overlooking your verandah. We’ve even installed a feature partition which switches between opaque and transparent at the touch of a button, transforming your suite into your very own spa.

 

Sure to be unlike anywhere you’ve stayed before, you’ll also enjoy the 24-hour services of a butler who will ensure you’re never without complimentary refreshments and a re-stocked minibar.

Wherever in the world you’re exploring, you’ll have a choice of up to 10 dining venues. Elements is the main restaurant, serving fresh bread and pastries from the bakery for breakfast, as well as salads and burgers off the grill for a hearty lunch. In the evening, you can enjoy Italian-inspired cuisine, including homemade pasta and steak. And, on selected evenings, an exclusive part of the restaurant will be open to guests by invitation for a private dégustation dining experience at the Chef’s Table. An open galley showcases the interactions of the yacht’s kitchen crew for a meal and culinary show with wine-pairing.

 

Lumière is Scenic Eclipse’s premier restaurant. Take a seat at the impressive bar and select your favourite fine French champagne from the champagne wall. Indulge in French fine-dining in the sophisticated art deco-inspired surrounds, where you’ll be invited to enjoy everything from snails and frog’s legs to Valrhona chocolate truffles and macarons.

Three different restaurants combine to create Koko’s, the Asian Fusion dining experience. The main restaurant is open daily for delicious Asian dishes and sake, while Sushi @ Koko’s serves up fresh sushi from the dedicated sushi bar, where additional seating has been added due to overwhelming popular demand.

 

We’ve recently introduced Night Market @ Koko’s, a reimagined teppanyaki experience created by Scenic Eclipse’s knowledgeable chefs and designed to replicate the stunning tastes and smells of a typical Asian street food market.

The Yacht Club grill restaurant and bar is open for breakfast and lunch. Plenty of outdoor seating makes it the perfect spot to enjoy some tapas in warm weather locations, while big windows welcome the sun inside in swathes. Additional space has been created where the interior pool once was, gifting you with extra room to enjoy an enhanced dining experience.

Of course, you’ll always have the option for 24-hour in-suite dining if you don’t feel like leaving your suite, and the Azure Bar & Café is open for relaxed snacking all day, so you’ll always have somewhere to go should you need to refuel before and after a big day of exploration.

Built to international safety standards and with a Polar Class 6 rating, Scenic Eclipse uses state-of-the- art technology to enable a travel experience unlike any other, with minimal impact on the environment.

 

In the polar regions, you can explore beyond the horizon, as you take to the skies in one of two Airbus H-130-T2 helicopters, for aerial views of remote fjords, icebergs and glaciers below. Inaccessible by any other means, you’ll witness some of nature’s most mesmerizing feats from a whole new perspective. These helicopters can land further in land so we can take you on more in-depth discovery excursions of truly remarkable destinations. We’ll even take you to the top of Antarctica’s mountains for a unique opportunity to ski its incredible slopes, as part of our new helicopter excursions.

 

And from great heights to unfathomable depths, the on board submarine, Scenic Neptune, can dive up to 300 metres (984 feet) beneath the ocean’s surface, enabling six guests at a time to relish in the opportunity to witness parts of the ocean never before seen. From the cold waters of the Arctic to the warm Caribbean, you’ll uncover incredible marine life, vibrant coral and ancient ruins. Scenic Eclipse’s expert Discovery Team will also lead small group expeditions on the water via Zodiac and kayak, as well as guided nature walks, as we search for sightings of penguin rookeries, seal colonies and breaching whales.

 

A journey on board Scenic Eclipse, the World’s First Discovery Yachts™, is your opportunity to satisfy the intrepid explorer and discerning traveller inside you. From the Arctic to Antarctica and everywhere in between, join us for an unforgettable discovery voyage.
