Oceania Allura

Oceania Allura entered service in July 2025 as a 1,200-passenger mid-sized ship operated by Oceania Cruises. Built at Fincantieri's shipyard in Sestri Ponente near Genoa, Italy, she is the second of the new Allura-class ships, following Vista, which was delivered in 2023. Unlike other vessels in the fleet, Allura has no interior cabins or oceanview staterooms with fixed windows, meaning every accommodation comes with a private balcony or veranda.

The ship holds 613 staterooms across 16 categories, with most accommodations around 245 square feet. The three Owner's Suites each span more than 2,400 square feet and feature expansive walls of glass overlooking the sea, finished with carefully chosen fabrics and furnishings. For the first time at Oceania, dedicated Concierge Level Veranda Staterooms cater specifically to solo travellers.

Food takes centre stage aboard Allura. The ship offers 12 dining venues, including a flagship French bistro called Jacques Restaurant, designed as a traditional French dining space and named after master chef Jacques Pepin. Its five course dinner menu runs through freshly baked baguettes, hors d'oeuvres, soups, salads, seafood main courses, desserts, and French cheese and wine, while the venue also hosts exclusive sommelier led wine luncheons. Beyond the formal dining rooms sit more relaxed venues, including wellness inspired dishes at Aquamar Kitchen, international cuisine at Terrace Cafe, and gourmet pizza at an authentic Neapolitan trattoria.

Open deck spaces and cabin balconies are finished with high quality teak, while every restaurant features Versace bone china, Christofle silverware, and Riedel crystal. An impressive collection of artworks is displayed throughout the public spaces.

The Culinary Center brings the feel of a lavish entertainment kitchen, where hands on cooking classes play out like a dinner party. The Artist Loft offers creative activities, while enrichment programming covers everything from art history to wine techniques. Entertainment ranges from lively production shows to solo performers and headliners who bring fresh energy to familiar songs.

Allura suits couples and travellers after a refined, mid-sized ship where food and cultural enrichment take centre stage, with enough space and thoughtful design to retreat and unwind between activities.
