Emerald Luna is a refined gem of European river cruising, launched in 2021 and designed to deliver intimate luxury aboard a compact, 135-meter vessel. With a gross tonnage of 3,544 and 92 cabins for up to 180 guests, complemented by 47 attentive crew members across four decks, this ship blends contemporary style with warm hospitality. The ship's centerpiece is its three-tiered atrium, a luminous social hub that mirrors the elegance of a modern marina while inviting guests to linger over coffee, cocktails, or a conversation. The heated pool on the open deck is a signature feature that converts to a cinema on selected evenings, turning stargazing and river views into immersive entertainment without leaving the sun deck. Onboard dining showcases regional flavors and globally inspired cuisine, served with panoramic river views and attentive, unobtrusive service. For active travelers, Emerald Luna offers curated onshore excursions, guided bikes along scenic riversides, and enriching talks that illuminate the places you visit. After a day ashore, guests can unwind at the spa, maintain routines in the fitness area, or participate in hands-on culinary demonstrations and wine tastings that highlight local producers. With EU 2-pin 220V power outlets throughout the ship (adapters not provided), Emerald Luna blends practical convenience with stylish design, ensuring guests can recharge between inspiring shore experiences. In short, Emerald Luna epitomizes contemporary Star-Ship cruising: sophisticated spaces, engaging onboard activities, and unforgettable itineraries along Europe's waterways.
