Regatta was built at Chantiers de l'Atlantique in St. Nazaire, France.  Regatta originally began her seagoing career as the R2 for Renaissance Cruises in 1998.  Upon the demise of Renaissance, Oceania Cruises was recently formed and acquired the R2 to continue her career of delivering a stellar product.
The overall feel in walking throughout the Regatta is that of sheer quality and luxury, all created by her sumptuous fittings.

Whether it be the exquisite handrail finishing throughout the staircases, the stately embarkation lobby, or the use of fine hard woods, there is a true feeling of sailing aboard an exclusive country club.
