Celestyal Discovery has returned to active service with increased capacity and new luxurious accommodation options, following a major renovation that took place in Athens over the winter.
The renovation of the 1,360-passenger cruise ship added 47 new cabins, increasing its total capacity by 7.4%. These include 32 upgraded suites, which enhance the premium offering by 52%, as well as 15 interior Cosmos cabins.
The two new suite categories include 30 Junior Dream Suites, which feature an interior space of 25 sq m and a balcony, as well as two Grand Horizon Suites, measuring 42 sq m and with a balcony, located above the bridge.
The ship also features a new restaurant, Smoked Olive, similar to that on Celestyal Journey. Guests can enjoy complimentary meals, while an a la carte menu is also available for an additional fee.
Celestyal Discovery embarked on her first three-day voyage after the renovation on March 21, kicking off the 2025 cruise season in Greece and the Mediterranean.
Iconic Greek Islands Cruises from Piraeus
The ship will sail three- and four-day cruises to the Iconic Greek Islands from Athens (Piraeus port) from March to November. Destinations include Mykonos, Kusadasi, Patmos, Rhodes, and Santorini, with rates starting at £299 for a Cosmos inside cabin, £889 for a Junior Dream Suite, and £1,099 for a Grand Horizon Suite.
Lee Haslett, Celestyal’s commercial director, said: “This latest renovation reinforces our commitment to continually evolving our guest experience, offering exceptional value. Our upgrades, including two new cabin categories, offer passengers more comfort and choice, responding to demand for premium and spacious cabins.”
