The ship will feature 16 suites and accommodate up to 32 guests in total. The cabins will be complete with private balconies, including two presidential suites. Onboard, a gourmet restaurant will feature locally inspired Brazilian meals. The ship will also feature an onboard spa, fitness room, sun deck, and conference room.
