The De Wave Group has been selected as a major contractor for the outfitting of Scenic Luxury Cruises’ newest ship, Scenic Eclipse II, currently under construction by the MMK Yacht Division of the Scenic Group in Rijeka, Croatia. De Wave also contributed to its sister ship Scenic Eclipse I. The group will be creating the 114 "six-star" guest suites, guest suite wet rooms, guest suite area corridors; dining venues and provision plants, including kitchens and cold rooms, crew cabins, crew areas and crew corridors.
De Wave Group CEO Riccardo Pompili said in a press note, “We are very proud to play a major role in bringing this ultra-luxury ship to life, especially the sumptuously appointed guest suites and extraordinary spa suites.” These concept suites, ranging from 495 to 538 square feet, offer double hydro-massage baths designed by Philippe Starck, color therapy vitalizing mist showers, ultra-luxury accessories and the highest levels of sound insulation to be found on any ship according to the Bureau Veritas ship classification society.
As Scenic’s second “Discovery Yacht”, the Eclipse II will accommodate up to 228 guests in 114 "six-star" suites, and sail to many of the lesser-visited places on earth, including the glaciers of Greenland, the Norwegian fjords and Iceland. The expedition experience offered will be equally exclusive, guided by an expert team to explore along, below and above the horizon by zodiac, submarine and helicopter.
The steel-cutting ceremony for Scenic Eclipse II was held on April 24, 2020, and the De Wave order for 8,719 square feet of suites, cabins and corridors, plus 8,213 square meters of dining and catering areas, is scheduled for delivery in 2023.
