Emerald Cruises continues to push the limits of luxury at sea with the unveiling of Emerald Kaia, a luxurious yacht aiming to redefine sea travel. The next-generation yacht measures 393 feet in length and has six guest decks. It is designed to cater to the traveler’s desire for space and wellness, boasting enhancements such as a 50% expansion of the wellness area and increased ceiling heights of up to 10 feet across the main deck.
The yacht merges increased capacity with an intimate ambiance capable of accommodating 128 guests with ease. The innovative yacht underscores Emerald Cruises’ (part of Scenic Group) pioneering spirit in luxury yacht cruising. The yacht’s Sky Deck has been expanded, and a new internal Sky Lounge has been incorporated. This feature offers guests a luxurious open-air experience with expansive panoramic views. All cabins and suites have a 10% larger floor plan, providing guests with extra comfort through spacious and contemporary accommodations. Emerald Kaia also boasts enhanced dining venues, a reimagined gym, spa, and wellness features, promising an unrivaled superyacht experience.
“Emerald Kaia, with its significant design and amenity enhancements, marks a pivotal expansion for our fleet,” Glen Moroney says, Chairman and Founder of Scenic Group. “It builds on the strengths of Emerald Sakara and Emerald Azzurra, allowing us to offer unmatched superyacht experiences along the world’s most captivating coastlines.”
Along with the unveiling of Emerald Kaia, Scenic Group’s Discovery Yachts, Scenic Eclipse and its sister ship Scenic Eclipse II will undergo significant enhancements.
Before the Mediterranean season begins, Scenic Eclipse’s Senses Spa is scheduled to receive a dry dock upgrade in April. The upgrade will match Scenic Eclipse II’s aesthetic and innovative features, thereby elevating the wellness experience to new heights.
Another luxurious introduction at sea from Scenic Group is the custom-designed Scenic Neptune II submersible and four state-of-the-art SEABOBs aboard Scenic Eclipse II, catering to the adventurous spirit of guests. These new sea toys and the discovery vessel offer a unique opportunity to explore the depths of the ocean and world-renowned coral reefs. The first season of this experience has recently commenced in the South Pacific, Australia and East Antarctica. The brand’s unwavering commitment to excellence and passion for revealing the unseen wonders of the world in unrivaled ultra-luxury is underscored by the addition of these enhancements, combined with two helicopters.
