VidantaWorld Set to Launch Cruise Operation on Saturday

  • April 9, 2026
Vidanta Elegant

VidantaWorld Voyages has announced the long-awaited debut of the Elegant, which the company described as an ultra-yacht designed for Mediterranean cruising.

From April 11 through October 2, 2026 and returning May through September 2027, the vessel will offer seven-night Mediterranean itineraries spanning the French Riviera, Spanish Coast, Azores and Portugal, Greek Islands and Adriatic Sea, and Italian Shores.

“From the beginning, our focus has been about redefining what luxury at sea could feel like,” said Ivan Chavez, executive vice president of Grupo Vidanta.

“By dramatically reducing guest count, elevating service to near one-to-one levels, prioritizing space and building itineraries around longer stays and late departures, we’ve created a voyage that delivers the high-end experience and flexibility today’s luxury travelers are seeking.”

The vessel was designed to accommodate more than 600 guests but will carry only 216 passengers after a significant refurbishment. The ship last operated as All Leisure Group’s Discovery.

Dining options include three restaurants: Montelimar for Mediterranean cuisine, Guō for Asian fusion and Flor de Agave for Mexican cuisine.
