MS Amera is a classic mid-sized cruise ship operated by Phoenix Reisen that originally launched in nineteen eighty-eight as Royal Viking Sun before officially beginning operations under her current name on August sixteenth, twenty nineteen. Accommodating up to one thousand six guests across thirteen decks alongside four hundred seventy professional crew members, the vessel features an advanced ABB DC Grid power system designed to enhance marine propulsion efficiency and sustainability during global voyages.
Guest accommodations comprise four hundred nineteen staterooms distributed carefully across twenty-three distinct categories, including sixty-seven luxury suites, ninety-nine private balcony cabins, and thirty-one comfortable interior rooms. The largest onboard residential configuration is the Royal Suite, which measures eighty square metres and includes an expansive private veranda designed for extended horizon viewing across open waters.
Culinary operations center around two primary dining venues named Amera and Ocean featuring flexible dining times, complemented by the Lido Buffet and Pichler's specialized regional restaurant. Additional social spaces include multiple indoor and outdoor bars, welcoming cafes, and the expansive Atlantik Show-Lounge hosting live musical performances and engaging theatrical stage productions.
Recreational facilities feature two swimming pools, three outdoor hot tubs, a fully equipped fitness centre, and a comprehensive spa housing traditional saunas, steam rooms, and professional massage therapy services. Known historically throughout the industry as the Elegant Explorer, the vessel maintains traditional global itineraries spanning picturesque European coastal waters and extended annual world cruises.
The traditional vessel appeals strongly to experienced cruisers who prefer a classic, relaxed shipboard environment combined with genuine maritime exploration routes and unhurried port stays across international waters. Every carefully planned voyage delivers comfortable global navigation backed by attentive personal service and an authentic atmosphere of sophisticated maritime adventure.
