The Wait is Over: Sonata’s Maiden Season is Officially Open

The First Note – Sonata’s Maiden Voyages Are Here

New ship. New horizon. Sonata’s debut now open.

There is a profound, cinematic magic in being among the very first to step across the threshold of a brand-new ship like the Oceania Sonata. Before the first cork is popped or the first course is served, there is a palpable “new ship smell” – a crisp blend of fresh Italian marble, polished exotic woods, and plush, untouched linens.

As an inaugural guest, you aren’t just a passenger; you are a pioneer of a new standard of elegance. You’ll be the first to find your favourite nook in the library, the first to toast to a sunset from the pristine teak decks, and the first to experience the seamless choreography of a crew eager to showcase their new home. Every meal is a debut, every port arrival is a celebration, and every moment carries the prestige of knowing you are setting the narrative for a vessel that will eventually carry thousands of stories – but yours will always be the first.

Your table is set aboard the new Oceania Sonata

Imagine waking up to the gentle hum of the Mediterranean, knowing your only “hard” decision today is whether to indulge in a buttery croissant at Baristas or save your appetite for a Jacques Pépin-inspired lunch.

Welcome to Oceania Sonata, where ultra-luxury meets a relaxed, “country club casual” atmosphere. As the newest masterpiece in Oceania Cruise’s fleet, Sonata offers:

  • The finest cuisine at sea: From the Grand Dining Room to specialty venues like Polo Grill, every meal is included and every bite is a revelation.
  • Intimate luxury: With fewer guests and more staff, you’ll never face a crowd or a queue.
  • Curated destinations: Sonata is designed to tuck into smaller, boutique ports that larger ships simply can’t reach.
  • Destination-centric itineraries: More time in port means more time for authentic local experiences.
  • Small-ship sophistication: Enjoy the amenities of a large resort with the soul of a private yacht.
