Margaritaville announced Margaritaville at Sea, an offshore resort experience, in early December. The first cruise ship, Margaritaville Paradise, will offer fun, escapism, and a state of mind.
The only thing better than being on a beach by the ocean is to be on the sea. Now you can follow in our wake,” said singer, songwriter, and best-selling author Jimmy Buffett.
Departing the first passenger sailing on April 30 from the Port of Palm Beach, Florida, to Grand Bahama Island, Margaritaville Paradise will include ten passenger decks and 658 cabins in various stateroom categories. Following a multi-million investment and refurbishment, the ship’s cabins and common spaces will feature Margaritaville’s signature casual-luxe design with subtle nautical details and colors influenced by the surrounding sea, sand, and sky.
“Margaritaville at Sea will be a new, exciting, and fun way for guests to escape and vacation in Margaritaville. “From oceans to lakes, Margaritaville has an organic tie to the water, and with Margaritaville at Sea, they will put their iconic lifestyle, resort experiences, and elevated service directly on the sea.
Margaritaville Paradise, formerly Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line’s flagship vessel, collaborates between Margaritaville and Bahamas Paradise Cruise lines. Grand Classica will feature gourmet food and beverage options, including JWB Prime Steak & Seafood, Frank and Lola’s Pizzeria, Port of Indecision Buffet, Land Shark Sports Bar, and Margaritaville Coffee & Pastry Shop, as well as the Euphoria Lounge, Sunset Bar, and 5 o’Clock Somewhere Bar. Additionally, the ship will offer onboard leisure activities and entertainment, including the Par-A-Dice Casino, a Stars on the Water Theater, St. Somewhere Spa, Fins Up! Fitness Center, pools, a retail shop, and more.
The collaborative concept will add a different dimension to the cruising industry, appealing to a new audience of travelers. “Margaritaville at Sea will provide guests with Margaritaville’s authentic culture, entertainment, and food en route to a beautiful destination in Grand Bahama Island. The experience will complement an unmatched, personalized approach to guest service from start to finish via valet service and exclusive cruise terminals for smoother embarkation and disembarkation. It’s the perfect partnership in paradise.”
